So, I have been horrible with my updates lately!! Things have been crazy: Zeb has been out of town for work a lot lately and things have not slowed down at my office, and unfortunately, my blogging (and my house upkeep) are falling by the wayside. Lets see, what fun things do we have to share....
Uncle Ben and Aunt Tasha are officially married!! On April 30th, we enjoyed a fun filled weekend of friends and family in Garden Valley. It was great to see so many folks with whom our visits are, sadly, few and far between!!

Graycin went in for his 4 month check up on May 11th (I said I was behind!) and he is doing well!! He came in at a strong 16 lbs, 13 oz and 25 3/4 inches long! After telling the doctor that Graycin was eating a strong 50-80 oz of formula day, we got the ok to start 'solids.' We have made it through all our fruits and veggies without a hitch and am happy to say that Graycin gets at least two solid meals a day and can finish two jars of food and at least 4 oz of formula if we let him. Needless to say, we normally cut him off at one and push the fluids.
May 12th was a BIG day at the Rodes' house as Graycin rolled over for the first time! We knew it was coming, but he kindly waited till we were home in the evening to capture the event! He routinely makes it to his belly but is still learning to consistently get himself back over!
getting so close to rolling!
big, sleepy eyes!
shocked! the first time he made it over!
a smile under there for his new found ability!

We have had visitors! and we love it!! Memaw and Nanny were here three weeks ago, Aunt Jessie and Aunt Rissa came to see us for a couple days and Uncle Ben and Aunt Tasha were here! Whew! So many people to see!! We love having all of our family here!
On Memorial Day, we took drive through scenic Idaho. It rained, it snowed... and it was May 31st.... welcome to Idaho!
We hope this finds you all well and ready for summer!! - Jen and ./;pkiijhghbbf (Graycin)
