Been a while

We are ready for the big game this weekend!! Adam does this thing that has bugged everyone around him his entire life. What is 'this thing' you ask? Well, he cannot just sit still when he is at home. He always has to be throwing a ball around. His mom says it came from his dad, who always is throwing a racquetball around...Adam's choice is a beach football or any ball for that matter. He throws it around when he is on the phone, when he is watching a game, when he is cooking dinner. He has broken more picture frames and home decorations than one can fathom at both our house and his mom's house. So, you can imagine that Grady also loves this football. One day he got a hold of it, and thought he was the coolest little boy in the world. Grady's other big thing is his hat. Adam has always loved hats. He wears them all the time. Grady is also into hats and will never rip them off when wearing them. For Christmas he got a little golfer cap. He wears it to church with his little sweater and corderoy pants. However, in this picture, he was too busy looking at his dad throwing the ball around.
He was a little more focused in this picture...and disregard the large amounts of drool on his sweater.
Grady's other big accomplishment has been his food consumption. He is a big eater and loves his solids. We heard from a friend (shout out to Tiffany!!) that MumMums rice crackers were great for little boys. Adam calls them Birdy Num Nums, but Grady loves them and devours them within seconds. Adam thought this picture was funny and so it was included...Camille says that someday Grady will pay Adam back.

Our other big news is our Christmas present finally came. Since Grady has come into our lives we have found it harder and harder to get to the gym, so collectively we gave ourselves a new elliptical machine. Little did we know it would require so much work. The box was about five feet tall and full of parts just waiting for assembly.

Adam is not so handy and was nervous. Once he spread all the parts out, he said, "Maybe we should ask someone in the ward to do this." Camille said, "Why don't you just try." He tried for a few seconds before Camille had to jump in and give him a hand. The nice thing about us as a couple is that we compliment each other well. Whenever we drive anywhere Adam is the driver and Camille is the navigator...the same goes for home projects, Camille is the teller of things to do, and Adam is the grunt laborer.

The grunt laborer and teller of things to do actually did a decent job. We got it together in about 3 hours and only had one little problem, which we did have to call someone in our ward to help us out with...but, we are happy with it, and Adam says he hopes to keep his girly figure up to date. Note: Please disregard all of Grady's crap in this picture. Note II: Adam also at one point had to assemble Grady's crap in this picture.

So, we are off to being more healthy and enjoying our Christmas present. Grady is now sitting up, getting big, and crawling everywhere. We have to keep a close eye on him. The other day while eating lunch it got a little too quiet. When we found him he had made his way into a plant and was eating the dirt.
