brotherly love

No one can take credit for teaching Grayson how to kiss. But gosh knows Grayson has received a bazillion of them in the last 18 months! :)

.

Unfortunately, 9 times out of 10, Grayson isn't even willing to let you kiss him. When he is, it's SO sweet. Ray and I have found he's most receptive after his bath and before bedtime (when he's sleepy)! :) Otherwise, you just have to steal 'em! And we're okay with that! Hey - we'll take them however we can get them!

.

Ocassionally, Grayson gives us kisses. Perhaps rarely is a better word. He just decides he wants to give you a kiss, opens his mouth and presses it to your face. It's sweeter than sweet - and did I stress that it is VERY rare?! ;)

.

And you'll never guess who Gray enjoys kissing most! Mya, Hobbes, and Daisy! Sometimes, they get kissed several times a day each! :) Now of course, they get chased, squeezed (hugged), and slapped (love taps) too! But I'd accept that kind of treatment if it were followed with a sweet Grayson kiss! ;)

.

Starting a week or so ago, someone else got in on Grayson's kisses - and gets them at least once a day! Again, you'll NEVER guess who! ZANDER! :) It happens during the day sometimes. Grayson sees by belly (it's more obvious now that it is sticking out further and further), lifts my shirt, and kisses it! But every single night, when Ray and I are sitting on the side of the tub giving G his bath, one of us says, "Where's Zander?" Grayson stands up, walks over to me, lifts my shirt, smiles, and kisses my belly! :) Is that not the sweetest thing ever?!

Below are pictures of G hugging and kissing Zander this morning while he was sitting in his high chair eating breakfast.
