Thrust no more

I'm still not going to try to upload photos until I get back.. but I can ive a few updates.

Greydon is feeling much better. Whew

Even since we have been gone he has grown so much and is constantly changing. It used to be that his "tongue thrust" was so pronounced and strong that it was interfering with the eating thing... he got past that and is eating like CRAZY!! It's wild... We're figuring out his likes and new eating patterns now.. his sleeping pattern is also all new and whacky... we're not sure how much of that is being away from the house...

We've toured some great little towns and taken amazingly beautiful drives through woods, along cliffs, next to lakes, great lakes and Eden itself I'm pretty sure.

There was a warmer ay that let us get a little wet at the beach. We were in Lake Huron this time, he loved the water, but it is still a great lake so it's pretty cold, too cold to really "swim" He was so happy at the beach, a true Michigander at heart. He loves the sand and didn't mind his legs and hands being in the cold water at all. I walked down the cray and tucked his little legs up in my t-shirt to block a little of the wind coming out f the water... it was so peaceful and pretty.

Last weekend both of the girls came up for the evening. We had a bonfire, ate and played games. We also had a group birthday moment for my bro, me, my neice, and Greydon, all of the June birthdays. We each got our own little cake. We put Greydon and my niece on a blanket and let them go to town... there was a pretty good chocolate ring in the tub later.

Most of us went to church the next day, Dad said it was great to look from the front (he's the branch president) and see us all there.. It was a pretty small branch, our group was one fourth of the people there. There was a 15 yr old who gave a great talk. I think sometimes in UT the youth see other youth doing a short little fake talk and think that is all that is expected of them... this kid did better than most adults... I wonder how much of that is just who he is and not seeing other youth kind of faking there way through it... interesting....

Tomorrow we're driving down to the Lansing area to spend a few days with my other sister Amy before we fly out on Tuesday.

Sounds like while we have been gone UT is falling to pieces... 800 cases of swine flu... well N1H1.. and daily rain... maybe we should extend out stay back here for a while...
