Dominic's Homecoming Countdown

In honor of Dominic's 8 month birthday, I'd like to review 3 of his "firsts" since he has been home. Each day he discovers something new and he is growing so fast! He has such a big personality already and he is so much fun to love! On to three fabulous firsts . . .

First of all, Dominic took his first LONG car ride. It was about an hour and 15 minutes long! We went to visit his greatgrandfather, Val. Dominic was wonderful in the car on the way to our visit but was a little cranky on the way home. We had a wonderful time at Val's house. Dominic played on the floor and was very excited to finally meet his greatgrandfather. His Nana met us there. As you can see in the picture, it was hard to get all three of them all to look at the camera at the same time!
Secondly, Dominic visited the grocery store AND sat in the cart like a big boy! He really likes the grocery store, especially when he gets to hold things while we shop. Frank and I shop together and take the baby each week. He is still a LITTLE too small for the cart, but we have him secured pretty well with his special seat. We do need to keep him propped up with a bag of pretzels or a box of croutons though!
