Checking out the salmon at the hatchery

Two down...

Grady lost his second tooth tonight. We noticed it was a bit wiggly earlier today. This evening, in the bathtub, he knocked it against something by accident and it was really loose then. So, we pulled it out! I think this is a good thing because the new bottom tooth is already trying to poke through the surface ... not anywhere close to the right spot though. Hopefully, with some space in front, it will move forward.

All gone!

Beach days

So far, September has been an extension of our summer with very warm days. We went to the beach again this weekend. Grady swam and played in the water the whole time. He also found this beautiful starfish.

First day of school!

Today was Grady's very first day of school.  He was pretty excited to get to his classroom and have a look around. Once we got there, he seemed nervous but he found his spot at the table and went to work drawing a picture - just like the other kids were doing. I picked him up two hours later and he was pretty happy ... and tired!  He goes back tomorrow for another two hours, and then for his first full day on Monday. It's hard to let go and send him off on his own, but we are excited for all the new things he will learn and the friends he will make.
