The Cube is Fun for Everyone

Howdy y'all!  I can say that, my sister lives in Texas.  Things went pretty well for us this past week, and we did manage to take more pictures!  So that must mean we had an even more exciting week, right?  One great adventure was finding/getting out the cube again!  The girls loved it when they were little, and Grayson (and the girls) LOVES it now!!  I really like when the girls play with Grayson.  It tends to make everyone happier.  Also, Grayson is doing pretty well sitting up.  We still put the boppy behind him in case he falls.  I think usually he just lays down, cause once he starts he does it over and over when you sit him up.  Still get's mad laying down though...


This was from last Sunday, but I think I wrote the blog earlier enough that I didn't get a picture of Jelly sitting on the kids chair on the table in.  If I did, sorry, but here she is!  Jelly isn't usually one to use objects the way we use them, but I guess kid chairs are different.  Maybe it's a sign she wants to start preschool too.


Here's a picture of Brooke and Grayson sitting in the recliner together.  Brooke wanted a picture with Grayson before he took his nap, and then asked if she could put him down.  Brooke held and rocked Grayson to sleep, and then Monica moved him to his crib.  What a great big sister!


Winry went to the eye doctor this past week.  This picture was supposed to be to shower her dilated pupils.  She did a really great job not constantly looking away....  Anyway, she needs glasses.  She has one eye that's good and one not so good, and they worry she'll get a dominant eye or something, so we're going to get her some glasses.  She's really excited, and Brooke was kind of sad when Winry got home because now Brooke is the only one without a pair of glasses!


We convinced Winry to wear some sunglasses while she watched TV a little later as her eyes were still dilated.  She said things didn't look too bright, but I don't always know that I can trust her about things like this.


Grayson hit 6 months this past week.  The girls got their month pictures taken with flowers arranged in a number, Grayson got plopped on the floor with 6 toys.  I believe Brooke helped with the photo shoot.


Just look at this happy little boy!  What a cutie!  He is so great.  He is always happy and always brings a smile to everyone!  He's playful and energetic and a super CHUNK!  Like, his knee caps are innies.


Monica got to get her second vaccine shot this past week.  She didn't get any headaches or anything from it, which was the big worry, so that was really good!


That same day Grayson also got some vaccines at the doctor himself.  For dinner he ate banana and grapes (which he'd never had before).  Monica went to book club, and at around 9:30 Grayson started to cry.  I went to check on him and give him his pacifier and he was all wet... He had thrown up all over himself.  So I changed his clothes, diaper, sleep sack and sheets.  He was super tired and fell right back asleep after, so I laid him down just to be back in 5 more minutes to him having thrown up all over everything again.  Poor little buddy.  So his chair got towels for just in case, and fortunately we didn't have to clean him up again.  He ended up sleeping great the rest of the night and seemed fine the whole next day.  He threw up on me again on Saturday during the day, so not 100% sure what's going on, and if it was the vaccines or what, but hopefully this little buddy is doing well.  It hasn't seemed bad yet, but if it continues we'll have to take him to the doctor.


Saturday was vey warm, and the girls really wanted to go to the spiral rocks.  We had a lot of fun walking the path and after did somersaults and head stands in the grass.


Today we went for a walk, and when we got home the neighbors were out, so the girls went to play with them.  They had a lot of fun.  We got to try their swing in their front yard, and did chalk together, and Monica and I got to know the neighbors better too!  We ended up being out there with them all the way until Monica finished dinner.


Speaking of Monica coming in to cook, not all was well in kitchen-paradise.  The chia seeds tried to make an escape, which resulted in the loss of thousands of them.  But hey, Monica did what she needed to in order to quell rebellion!


All in all we had a fun week and are looking forward to more warm weather!  We're also looking forward to be vaccinated!  Just one more adult to go!  Hope everyone has a fantastic week ahead!
