Grady has been serenading Hammy. Of course, the song of choice is “Dumb Dog” from the movie, Annie. Today I came home from dropping Grady off at school and found Hammy eating a dirty diaper that I forgot to put…

You Want What?
Grady has spent a good deal of time lately pretending to be a dog. He likes to get down on all fours and play with Hammy. He fetches toys. He licks out of his water cup. He’s a good doggy.…
Hammy and Annie
I know Hammy swipes food off the table and he barks a bit too much from time to time. But I also know he loves us and he’d do anything for us. If any one of us was in trouble,…

Cin-a-well-wa
Grady has developed a liking for Cinderella, which he pronounces, “Cin-a-well-wa.” We’ve been watching it non-stop for the past week. Unfortunately, I pulled something in my back today so I’m stuck on the couch with Grady watching the fairy godmother…
