Video dump

I've had some videos sitting on the camcorder that I've been wanting to share but keep forgetting.  So -  while I'm thinking of it - here they are.

First, Grady helping Daddy with the yard work.


 When Amy was in town, she brought a bunch of wonderful books.  Grady's favorite by far is Richard Scarry's "Cars and Trucks and Things that Go."  On each page, there is a little bug named Goldbug that is hiding on the page.  Here is Grady trying to find him. 


And Grady showing off his stellar Swap-genes dance moves. 


And best for last - Grady singing.  


Thanks for all your well-wishes on the move.  It was an exhausting weekend, but it went quite well.  Grady completely missed his Saturday nap because of the timing of the move, but stayed in good spirits until his early bedtime and didn't seem too off the rest of the weekend.  He settled in really well to the new house.  It is definitely much smaller than our old house - both in terms of square footage and in that it seems to have been made for people under 5 feet.  Matt and I have had our share of head bumps and elbow scrapes.  It's nice to be so close to home, though, and we are already getting used to it here.  The kitties are doing well with the transition too. 

Matt's birthday was yesterday.  While we were waiting for Daddy to get home from his commute, I tried to teach Grady to say "Happy Birthday" and then we waited outside for him to come home.  When Grady saw his daddy round the corner, he started running toward him saying "Happy! Happy!  Happy!"  It was pretty amazing. 

Grady also did a good job opening the present he got for Matt


And then monopolized the phone when Grandma and Grandpa Wilkinson called.


It was a fun birthday!  Matt's sisters and his nephew are coming into town tomorrow.  We are really excited to have everyone meet Grady and show them around Portland.
