Some sweet baby Gunner to get you through the day...

Gunner recently had a bought of croup. After several sleepless nights, a trip to Dr. D, some seriously scary breathing, an oral steroid, and many a breathing treatment, he was on the mend. The oral steroid did the trick and opened up his trachea so he could breath better...but no one mentioned that he would want to still be playing at MIDNIGHT!!! He was snuggling with daddy though and I snapped this super precious picture...check out that GRIN! He was already starting to feel better.

Riding brother's 4-wheeler with daddy! Shhhh, don't tell Garrett!!!
Garrett loved snacks, but Gunner is the SNACK KING! He will go pat on the pantry door and say "nack" (aka. snack). This kid can go for a snack any time of day, including right when he wakes up!

Aside from snack, Gunner's vocab list includes:

dada

Garrett

doh, doh (dog, dog)

look

go

hi

bye

nigh, nigh (night, night)

Talia (his teacher)

Jo-Jo (his other teacher)

Shannon (Miss Shannon, the daycare director)

Nannie (just added last week at church!)

Do you see momma on the list??? Huh, do ya? NOPE! That's because he doesn't SAY IT! If we tell him to say momma, he laughs and says dada. SERIOUSLY! He laughs. Momma was Garrett's first word...so I suppose this was long time due.
