Sweet Boy

How can you resist this?

The greatest invention since...the Miracle Blanket

That's right folks...something that tops or comes pretty darn close to my lifesaver, the Miracle Blanket. Have you guessed it yet? Here's a hint..

The EXERSAUCER...the toy of all toys, and with such a powerful name. I mean who in their right mind would NOT want to play in this thing. It's fully loaded, jammed packed with gators that teach you the 123's & ABC's, singing lizards, followed up with a trip around the world where you get to listen to culturally relevant tunes. And yes...that's my son sucking his fingers in the midst of all this excitement. He learned that one from a pro:)

5 Months Old!!

Yep, we're a little late on this post as well. Graham turned 5 months old last week! Every month just gets better and better as his skills continue to develop. He's well on his way to sitting up unassisted! Way to go G Dubb! Love you little booger!

At Last...

Graham's been awfully interested in what mommy has been eating lately so we went for it over the weekend and introduced him to rice cereal. He wasn't a big fan of it of course and as of yet hasn't really gotten used to it but he'll come around...it's that Clifford in him!!

Graham's Baptism

We just finished a very special weekend as Graham Woodward was baptised into the Episcopal Church. It was a wonderful weekend despite the weather, we had family in town to celebrate with us on this joyous occasion. Graham along with 7 other babies were baptised on Sunday, February 19th...a day that we'll always remember. John and I were especially tickled that Reverend Marty who married us, also administered Graham's baptism. Everyone gathered for the 11:15 service and then headed to Mimi's house for a delicious lunch. Thank you to everyone who made this event very special for our new family, we will never forget it! Graham is blessed to have so much love surrounding him from all over the country...we couldn't ask for anything more!

Thanks again everyone for making this an unforgettable event!

Dump O' Photos...

So...I've gone back to work and like I imagined...I have zero time to keep up with this blog. I really want to keep posting events daily but it's just not practical with the schedule we're adjusting to lately. One of the many purposes of this blog is for Graham to be able to look back at his life in a digital form...given the internet still exists when he's 30! So here's G Dubb in the last month or so at 3-4 months of age.

Go Dawgs!



Look at my big ole belly!



Hangin with my Cici!

I'm such a flirt...

Next up...getting baptized...

Sip N' See with Mimi

Sorry it's been a while since my last post but I've been trying to get in as much G Dubb time as possible as my first day back to work is Tuesday, the 17th. I'm not looking forward to leaving my sweet baby boy but i have to tell myself it's what's best right now for me and my child. I know he will be in good hands, I just hate tobe missing out on so much of his infancy. I'll stop my whining now...

We were pretty busy last weekend with parties galore! First, we showered our dear friend Natalia Russo as they prepare to welcome their first baby boy at the end of the month. It was a beautiful shower with lots of good eats to share with good friends. The Lintner family is SO excited to meet baby Russo! The next day we headed off to Mimi's house as she welcomed some of her long time friends to "Sip" on tea and lemonade and "See" baby Graham. The guest of honor did very well, staying awake the whole time. It was so nice to see all of my mom's good friends, most of which were around to see my brother and I grow up. All of these women have remained such good friends over the years, they truly represent the meaning of friendship. I only hope that my friends and I will have that same type of relationship in the future.
Good times had by all...
