9 months old today!

War Eagle!

So Graham is 9 months old today which happens to be the day Auburn plays West Virginia. Since Graham doesn't know which team is his favorite, we decided to get both Alabama and Auburn outfits for him. I had this cute little "Auburn" outfit made for him with his name on it. He wore it during the game to cheer them on. It's a pretty big game and dates have always played a part since we got pregnant with him. The day we found out Graham was Graham (8-8-08) was also the day the summer Olympic started in China....etc. So I'm thinking Graham will probably be an Auburn fan.... What do you think?

Here are some things Graham has accomplished:

• He can now climb UP stairs (not down yet)
• Starting to eat regular food (ie Rice, Mash Potatoes...etc)
• He has a total of 8 teeth now (Crazy huh?)
• Standing really good (with help of course)
• Sits on his Giraffe Rocker (the cutest thing) - Note: His nursery has been an animal theme...which is cool
• Says Da Da all the time and a few ma ma's....

Graham's 1st Plane Ride

Aunt Gloria was gracious enough to buy a plane ticket for Graham and me to Philadelphia so we may visit her. When she asked to see if Labor Day weekend was going to be ok, I thought to myself.. flying with Graham alone..YIKES! I couldn't pass up the opportunity plus I've missed my sister.

We got up around 6:30, finish up rest of the packing and left for Atlanta around 9:00 am. Ran into some traffic (a RV caught on fire!) and that delayed our plan to eat dim sum before heading to the airport. We had to go straight to the airport by the time we got close to Downtown Atlanta. I've never been to the Atlanta International Airport but man, that place was crazy! It took us an hour to get to the gate! Max was able to go all the way until the gate (that helped more than you can imagine) Word of advice: do not fly with an infant by yourself! It was so difficult to get situated once on the plane. Everyone is looking at you like, gosh, you're taking forever! BUT, overall, Graham did very well on the plane. He didn't cry taking off or landing. The girl sitting next me said he had a great first experience with flying. I'm glad I didn't piss of any of the passengers!!

Graham and I have been enjoying our stay so far. We plan to go to the US Open on Monday... that will be another first for Graham.
