Baby drooling

I have always hated baby drool. Always. I've wondered how parents can just deal with being spit up on, licked, drooled on, etc. The last few days I've noticed an increase of saliva. I'll lay him on his stomach for a few minutes and there will be a pool of drool when I pick him. I let him sit up and a little spittle will run down his shirt. The other night I was holding him and I felt a wetness on my shirt. I lokked down and saw a shiny spot on my shoulder. He had drooled all over it. I looked at him and he smiled. I smiled. Wow how my opinion has changed. It was a sweet moment and the drool did not bother me at all. He has such a sweet smile, it makes me melt. No boy has ever won me over this quickly! He has my heart forever...

Grandparents are grand!

Recently, we had my parents come to meet our new addition (as well as help as build a new roof). Both were accomplished beautifully. We loved having Mimi and Papa Flake here. It is sad they live so far away. We've tried to convince them to relocate here, but the weather scares them away. Fred loved all the extra love he received from his flaky grandparents :)

We also love Grandma and Grandpa Rabe. They have loved spending time with Freddy and Grandma Rabe that has an unquenchable thirst to love her grandson. We feel so blessed to have such great and supportive grandparents. It makes such a difference...
