He Keeps Us Running!

Graham's new kicks are really working for him. He usually wears crocks but he has been covering some serious ground lately, so we thought that some shoes with a bit more support might be called for. This little monkey's on the move!

Mud Pie Anyone?

A mom should know better than to think that because a child is quiet they are occupied doing something constructive, so I suppose I should have been less surprised when I spotted Graham looking like this after I tried to work at the garden this morning with him there. I am not sure how much mud he got into his mouth, but there was plenty that made it to his face and strangely he wasn't hungry for lunch (just kidding).

Botanical Garden Fun

Today Graham and I enjoyed the Monarch butterfly exhibit at the Phoenix Botanical garden. Other than the butterflies, I think Graham's favorite thing was the cinnamon roll he got share with us. Oh well- plants aren't too exciting to kids.

Flossing-Graham Style

Graham gave me a little tutorial on flossing tonight. He's pretty good for a first-timer!

Feeding the Animals!!

Graham and I happened upon a new attraction today at the zoo- Giraffe Encounter! We got to feed the giraffes and Graham loved it!! I thought he might be scared because they were quite big!! We were up on a platform about ten feet above the ground and they were still this tall! However, he loved it. He just laughed and laughed and then got mad when he couldn't pet them.

The Terrible Twosome!

Graham and Ethan are up to their usual tricks- and some new ones! We did not come up with the idea of Ethan pulling Graham in the wagon. They invented that one completely on their own.

Loving the Fall Weather

Graham and I went to the park this morning- a sign that it is finally cooling down a couple of degrees here. It is falling below 90 degrees at night as well- a relief for us after all of the recent hot weather. Here's Graham enjoying some sculpture at the local Civic Center Mall.
