This boy

I can't believe our boy is less than a month away from finishing another school year. He's grown up so much this year and is still like a little sponge, soaking up everything he can.

He continues to really enjoy music and is currently learning two musicals, one at church and one for his school program. I often catch him singing to himself and you can tell there's always music going in that head of his!

Gray also loves being outside! Whether it's casting his pretend Cars fishing rod into our pool, driving his tractor around the yard or exploring trails and parks, this kid absolutely loves the outdoors.

We did some impromptu exploring at Lake Thunderbird State Park with Nana and Popper recently and he could have spent hours in the Nature Center, visiting the turtle enclosure and tromping around the lake.

Can you spot one of the turtles near the rocks?

Gray is also getting more opinionated about what he wears and how his hair looks. One morning he put in hair gel all by himself before school and was very particular about styling it to look cool. Daddy took a picture so I could see what a good job he did. So big!
