Grant and I arrived in Florida at 11pm last night. We're staying grandma and grandpa Koss this week and grandma and grandpa Nied next week. Grant is so happy to be here. Despite only taking a cat nap on the airplane, he was so excited he didn't go to bed until 1am. As I pushed him in the stroller through the airport he waved to everyone in sight with a big smile on his face. He calls everyone either mama or Bob (we don't know why), so we had a few interesting reactions from strangers. He doesn't have much contact with groups of people (outside of the doctor's office) so he really enjoyed watching all of the social interactions going on around him.
It is always a risk to take Grant outside the house in the winter because of the germs. Especially on an airplane. But, after lots of prayer Jim and I decided to take the risk. (Jim is meeting us next week.) I'm so glad that we did. Grant ran straight to the ocean and laughed as a wave smacked him in the face. He went on a long walk with grandma and grandpa this morning where he pointed to the birds in sight and said "Bob." He loves all the stimulation and the new environment. I think this sunshine is good for both of us. :)

Clearly he got the "Bob" thing from us always singing , "Bar Bar Bar Bar Bar Bar Barbara Ann....." to him. I miss you guys so much already. Michigan stinks even more without any of you guys here! Maybe I will just quit my job and come hang out with you guys in Florida...Oh wait! Check.
Love,
Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Josh (not really....he's not the type to comment on a blog...too cool.) Lame.
maybe all of us Michiganders should move someplace with more warmth & sunshine all year around... how 'bout North Carolina?!
We have been thinking about you guys so much! We really miss you and are SO excited for you. You are in our prayers daily. Have fun in Florida -- Wish we could join you!
