Papa Vergil & Ma Visit + Kasen Rides a Bike!

Papa Vergil & Ma came to visit, and it was a surprise for Kasen!  (He loves surprises!)  They came over shortly after he got off work on Friday, and Ma stayed the whole week!  Kasen loved having a fun visit & Graham actually let Ma hold & play with him without crying for mommy (whew!).  We all had a fabulous week, especially since it also happened to be the week Kasen really started riding his bike!

Ma & Papa Vergil brought new Legos!!

 This is the first day he really rode his bike, and he was still a bit unsure of himself.

 Luke has looked forward to this day for 5 years!  Since Ma & Papa Vergil were around to entertain Graham the next weekend, I was even able to get in on the action & took a ride around the block with Kasen.  So much fun!!

 I thought this was super sweet, Ma was reading her Nook & Kasen grabbed a book & sat beside her (for a few minutes) & read too.

The week came & went quickly (they all seem to do that lately!  - the days are long but the weeks are short), but it was a fun.  Thanks for visiting us Ma.

Graham is FOUR months!!

Wow!  4 months already?!  Time is going so fast!  Graham is now 11#s 15oz (yep, tiny, tiny) & 25" long.  He can roll over from tummy to back & back to tummy, sit up for about 20-30 seconds without falling over, and still loves to sleep!  He adores Kasen & watches everything he does so intently.  He likes to make googly eyes at daddy & rarely wants out of mommy's arms.  He smiles at strangers (especially girls!) & laughs with this awesome sound, almost like he's gasping for air, but it's a happy sound.  Standing (while holding someone's hands) is one of his favorite things to do, and he's starting to scoot/roll around the floors.  He had his first trip to the zoo this week, but he missed all the animals because he slept almost the full 4 hours we were there!  Graham still isn't a fan of napping anywhere other than on mommy, but he's slowly learning to nap other places.  He is a calm, happy, fun guy that we are blessed to have as a part of the family.

Here he is waiting on the pediatrician to come check him out:

 He LOVES chewing on his hands these days!
