Misery
That is how I would describe Graham's first boat ride. It was soooo hot outside. The lifejacket was too big even though it was suppose to fit an infant. He was super sweaty and super uncomfortable. Poor guy. We didn't go very far. I think the whole ride might have lasted 3 minutes. At least we were able to get a few family pics and spend some time with Grandpa Chip and Grandma Candy.
Look at this face!
Still looks miserable.
8-9 Month Combo
Major slacking mom reporting. I didn't post any details of Graham's 8th month. So here is a combo of all the exciting thing that have been going on in the past 2 months.
- Still very much loves eating solid foods. I am cooking his food with spices which he loves. He is not my child though... he hates green beans:(
- Gave up the bottle the day mommy was done with work. Awesome! Not really.
- So he has been practicing with the sippy cup. That is a work in progress. The cup ends up in the floor most of the time.
- Which brings me to everything goes in the floor. Then he looks over the edge to see where it went. We play a lot of the I throw it down you pick it up game.
- Not into fingers much at all. But loves Num Nums. He can hold those all by himself. Such a big boy.
- Cut 4 teeth within a matter of 2 or 3 weeks. We were in teething hell. The top and bottom 2 teeth are in. And now he is gritting his teeth. So yeah he is my child. I am the queen of gritting my teeth.
- Loves riding in the shopping cart at the store and sitting in a highchair when we go out to dinner.
- Moved to the big boy convertible carseat which he hates. Riding in the car is longer a dream. It is a nightmare. I am hoping he will adjust soon.
- He likes to sing(scream) all.the.time. It is ear piercing.
- He was babbling. Lots of bbbbb, ddddd, and even dadada. The babbling was short lived and replaced with the singing/screaming as stated above.
- Went on his first boat ride. I will post more on that later.
- The giggling is out of control. It is the BEST sound in the world. And he laughs at everything. He could look up at the ceiling and just start giggling. I love it.
- Hair pulling. It was cute at first now it just hurts. He is already being disciplined for hair pulling. He just looks at me like, " Mommy what is your problem?"
- Crawls, uh um, backwards. We are working on the forward part. Really he would just rather be held.
I think that pretty much sums up the highlights of his 8th and 9th month. I am loving being home with him everyday. Chris is going to have to pry me away and force me back to work. I am trying not to think about it:) Here are a few pics.

Happy Father's Day
Happy First Father's Day Chris! You are an amazing dad. I love the way you "sing" with Graham. And how you work so hard to make him laugh. He is one lucky boy. Graham loves you very much... he told me so. I hope you had a great day.
Chris' first day as a Daddy. He was a natural from the start.
Happy Father's Day to Papa ( I missed you today) and Grandpa Chip!
