July 2, 2010: Waterfalls and a Baby Who Likes Grits

The kids with their E-mom (granny) and Papa Kevin (step-granddaddy) at Anna Ruby Falls, Georgia.  And yes, J's grandparents hiked up the hill to falls with us.  Are they amazing or what?  (I use the proper terms granny and granddaddy in honor of the fact that I'm visiting the true SOUTH right now even if I'm sure they're not the labels J's mother would prefer. ;-).)  And just look at this baby boy of mine--we can't resist loving this kid, even if he wakes his mom up four times every night.  The first pic below is him with his mom at the falls, and the second is what it looks like, an 8-month old baby eating his first baby-back rib.  We had a great dinner at Unicoi State Park, where the kids got nearly all the Southern foods they didn't get last night at the Smith House, including: fried trout, fried green tomatoes, hush puppies, and cheesy grits.  Baby C refuses to eat baby food lately, but he was more than happy to eat baby back ribs, trout, and cheesy grits.  Funny kid--smart kid.

  1. Smart kid alright! Takes after his daddy. You downed almost as much pizza as Dad and me when you were about the same age as C. You used to like Dee's hamburgers over baby food too.
