Another Visit with Grandma and Papa

Grandma and Papa came for another visit before they had to return to Chicago.

Meeting Family

My parents, sister, neice, and nephews came to vistit for the day and meet Grant. Jared, Kegan, and Timmy were very happy to finally have a cousin to play with. We had a great day together.













Jared played peek-a-boo...

Dinnertime

It took me a while to figure out how to feed Grant without getting food all over his clothes, so I decided to just strip him down to his diaper for dinnertime. He was more interested in his toes than in his food.

The Backpack

After about a week of Grant's wanting to be held all the time, we realized we needed to look for a backpack carrier. Apparently they use them in Korea and he was used to being carried that way. The minute we put him in, his face lit up and he was as happy as could be.



















All set to go out on our evening walk...



























Even though he gets jostled around, Grant falls asleep in the backpack almost every time.

It wasn't long before Nate discovered Grant's love for being thrown in the air and hung upside down.

Emma watched from a safe distance for the first couple of weeks.

Grant's Arrival

We drove down to LAX to pick up Grant.























































Here the Korean escort is handing Grant to me for the first time. The elderly lady in the hat is Betty Rose, the greeter.

Grant fell asleep in the car on the way home.










He loved to chew on Nates thumb.

































The only way we could get him to sleep was by holding him.
