Belated Birthday Post

So far so Summer

Here are a few pics of GMC in action. Apparently he has a favorite hat and t-shirt. I'm a bit shocked that I haven't been blogging about my awesome son, I suppose I'm distracted by his awesomeness. Pictured above is him golfing, his long summer curls, shopping for shoes (2 shoe sizes in 4 months) and at the airshow in Heber.

Imagination

Grant loves playing pretend and dress up. He is quite articulate and can describe or act out what he imagines. When he wears his cowboy hat he walks around saying, "Hi ya'll" and "Howdy Partner". And he loves to wear his Batman cape while doing Karate. A few days ago he was pushing his dump truck around the house saying, "more dirt...more concrete...castle." I asked, "Who are you building a castle for?" He answered, "The princess."

Early Summer

Hipster Grant

Hipster Grant loves playing on his Iphone. He drinks out of a vintage Santa mug all year round and loves Americana bluegrass...Only kidding. But he does get a kick out of wearing Mom's glasses.

Music

Grant, as of the past week or so (22 Mo. today), has been speaking of how much he loves music. Montgomery Cowart "Love(s) Music..." And he does... he hears the bass, and the drums, and the horns, loves to mimic the guitar. I'm thinking maybe it's the standup bass that's a fit for him. He is a talented musician who loves to listen to new tunes. . .

Golf-It

Today our family went to Golf-in-the-Round for a little early spring golfing. It was a beautiful day in Salt Lake City and Grant was enjoying the sunshine. It's a neat place, Golf-in-the-Round, that sits just west of a train track and city dump. Not too glamourous but to my boy it was a place of industrial noise and big trucks.

This was not the highlight however because little Grant was such a focused golfer. He practices T-ing up golf balls at home and his confidence beamed through as he skillfully balanced the golfball on the T and would swing his golf club "all by himself". He still is working on holding the club square and facing the right direction, but today was the first day he focused on the forward action of his swing. (Most of his early golf swings sent the ball flying behind him.) Of course, he showed of his talents to all of the on-lookers.

I'm so proud of my family and love my doing things my boys love to do.
