Graham's long day...

Today, we were lucky enough to have a perfect spring day that allowed us to spend several hours playing in the sun. Graham must have been excited to start the day because he woke up VERY early. Early enough for us to go through our morning routine and still be at Target when they opened their doors at 8:00! Hopefully, Graham begins to sleep a little bit later, because his Mommy is tired!! Amy and Alexandra joined us for lunch this afternoon and we took advantage of the great weather and headed outside. We took a leisurly walk and ended up at the park near our house. Conveniently enough, they have two baby swings which was exactly what we needed!


Graham and I spent the rest of the afternoon just relaxing in the yard. Graham was very entertained with his wagon, a few balls, and a bucket that he used to collect leaves. He spent a good amount of time just sitting in the wagon playing with a few sticks he found, but not once did he forget about his trusty doggy friend that never left his side. Every few minutes, Graham would lean out of the wagon and offer Annie a few pats. As "spunky" as Annie can be, she and Graham really are the best of pals!



This evening we had dinner with my family to help Lynn celebrate her birthday...it's a week early, but schedules can be tough to coordinate sometimes! Graham was his usual loud, happy self at the restaurant. He did do his "all done" signal about 5 minutes after we ordered our food though, so I was concerned we were in for a long night. Luckily, I'm able to fit an amazing number of treats in the diaper bag, so we were able to avoid a meltdown.
I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but Graham really loves balloons. Here he is, fast asleep in the car after his long day, and he still hasn't let go of his balloon....that's true love if you ask me!
