Grant endorses neither candidate. He can't even vote.

A Tale of Two Weeks

It is a time for cuteness; it is a time for grumpiness. It is a time for smiles; it is a time for growls. It is a time for milk; it is a time for refusal. It is a time for bed; it is a time for screams. There was a dad with a hope and prayer. There was a mom with an answer and a bottle. All these things and a thousand like them came to pass and shown to you, by internet, enjoy!

NEW POLL

Kelly and I have decided that Grant is so cute at 4 months that we just can't let him grow up. Not sure if its legal, but we intend to request a restraining order on his growing up. These days he laughs at anything you say or do. He will just smile and smile. He makes these little noises like Monkey yelps. We just think that he can't get any cuter. So we want to hear what you think, too. Please vote in the new poll, perhaps you will convince us to let our little cute baby grow up to be his own man.

Above is Grant in late June 2008. Our Little Dude has got some lounge wear compliments of Matt, Whitney, Sarah, Lucy and Christopher; if only he had a beverage, man.

Grantus Monkulus - July 4th Weekend

He conquered, crossing the Pecos, and the binky cast. His victory, the hearts of many. In the airport, the flight attendants oogled. On the plane, his own row. At 30,000 paces, he reposed across the sanctity of space. And on to take the Queen of the Plains, Denver, and her aquarium, with its bestiary of tigers. His own peeps laid laurels at his feet, and in his eminence he deemed it nap time throughout the folds of the front range.

To the venerable Rainbow, his retinue of menial parents made their haste with him to join the infloresence. A branch and a flower among many, he knew; his wisdom without end and his pamper so too.

Moments with friends, a visit with Great Grandma Iris, the hospitality of Grandparents, the gifts, the BBQs and good times. To home, a tired infant that sleeps the surly bonds of earth.
