He leaves little piles of boogers in his bed. He always has cars in his hands. He is becoming quite a proficient belcher (he always remembers to say "excuse me" when he is at the table). He likes to sing 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,' the ABC song and the BYU fight song. He is still pretty picky about eating the stuff I cook, but will down untold amounts of cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets, and mac 'n cheese. He laughs hysterically at his sister multiple times a day. He gives me kisses every time I ask.
Even though it is getting chilly, he asks to go outside to play rain or shine. Most of the time, he will remember to take a towel with him to dry his toys off before he sits on them.
We love this belly. Cori says it is an L* family legacy. When I change his diaper, he can suck his tummy flat to the ground. But when he is standing the ponch is always out.
Pulling Grace off of the bus brought some change to our afternoon routine. I almost always have to wake Grant from his nap when it is time to pick Gracie up. Poor guy. He is a little cranky about it until we are on our way to the school. He is always so excited to see his sister that the brooding doesn't last long.
Grant is starting to show some interest in the potty. Mostly, he is interested in wearing Grace's underwear. But we got the little potty seat out and he'll sit on it from time to time. 
Grant is also getting good at pouting, foot stomping, and screaming when things don't go his way. We spend a few happy sessions in time out everyday due to the latter development. The pouting and stomping makes me laugh every time. My favorite is when he does this dejected slumping of the shoulders. Drama! 
Grant continues to be a happy and kind little guy. He is very good about sharing with Grace. He loves reading time and doing anything at all with his dad. He talks and talks though we don't always know what he is saying (hence some of the stomping and screaming). He loves going to his class at church. It all makes the booger piles a little more tolerable.

LOL! What a cutie! Those bellies are the best!!!
I didn't realize you stopped having Grace take the bus. Was there a problem with it?
About the booger issue, when ever I have booger issues I always thaink at least they are not eating them. I know that is gross but it true.
He is way cute though!
Hides- There weren't any major problems. The bus routes were quite long. She was spending upwards of 2 hours a day on the bus in a commute that takes me 5 minutes to make. Plus there are older elementary aged kids on her route in the afternoon, and she was getting exposed to attitudes and Halloween stories (we pulled her off the beginning of Oct.) that weren't great for a 4 year old. Just kid stuff. But we've all been very pleased about the decision.
Ina- Good point. At least I know they are getting put in the trash!
What a cutie! I love the slumped shoulder pout! And how he loves to wear Gracie's underwear- haha. I haven't ever really compared how he looks to Gracie, but for some reason that last picture of him in the helmet looks a ton like her to me. Maybe the smile?
