Fall Pictures

Time is flying by. It seems like in the last couple of weeks Brody has just blossomed as far as talking goes. He tries to repeat everything that we say to him. When we drive by one of the local restaurants, he says, "eat." He loves to look at pictures and tell me who everyone is. He loves to wear hats, and he has to have his jacket zipped. He tell me to bip it. He is just so much fun. He says thank you for everything. I love these toddler days. Have a great week.

Brody

I love to be able to start a subject line with his name. Things are going great. I can't believe that Brody is 20 months old today. I have attached some pictures of the little guy. He is growing like no bodies business. Only grandparents and other family will probably want to read this post. I wanted to write down all of the things that he is doing now, so that I don't forget them. :)

He runs everywhere. I don't think that he knows how to walk. He has the grace of his mother. (note the sarcasm here) He fell 3 times within an hour last night alone. Once flipped off of the couch. He put a worm in his mouth yesterday. (picture is included). He knows so many words. He comes up with a new word or phrase everyday. He is putting two words together a lot. He is very stubborn, but cute about it. Ms. Val says that that stubornness will turn into standing up for what he believes in later in life. I pray that it does. His laugh is the most special thing that I get to hear. It is contageous. I love it. His smile will melt hearts. He knows a lot of his colors. He has green and blue down. He will repeat all of the colors. When he sits down to eat, he has to name off everyone that is sitting at the table. It doesn't matter where we are. Then he will point to his plate and mommy's plate and daddy's plate. Believe me we do this until everything on the table has been listed off. He loves to swing. He even walks up his slide. He is the strongest thing ever. I mean Samson strength. It is insane.

Brodyisms:
"Peas"- Please
"Tank two"- Thank you
"Papa"- Poppy
"Ma"- Mema
"RaRA"- Kara
"bubba"- Baker
"tenati"- Kenady
"buice"- juice
"bup"- up
"wing"- swing
"pase"- paste (as in toothpaste)
"ruru"- Rudy
"mime"- Mickey Mouse
"ball"- football mainly, but it can be for any type of ball.
"cacker"- cracker
"bip"- chips and dip

Those are just a few. Have a great day!!!

June Weddings

I am so sorry that I have been lazy with my blog. We have been supper busy. Here are a few pictures from the weddings that we have had this June. The first is of my cousin Michael's wedding, and the next is of my sister-in-law Jen's wedding.

One Year Old Pictures

Today we went and had Brody's one year old pictures made. I think that they turned out great. I hope that you enjoy them.
He is doing so much stuff. Right now he running from the den to the kitchen saying something. He has 5 teeth, and knows how to use them. He is saying or trying to say a lot of stuff. He tries to repeat a lot of what we say. He is just too precious for words.

Brody's First Birthday

Here are some pictures from Brody's first birthday. He had such a great time. Hope you enjoy.

A little late Merry Christmas

I know this is a little late, but I have been playing around with the video slide show stuff, and thought that I would add this to my blog. Hope you enjoy it. Next up: a birthday slide show.

New Videos

Here are a couple of recent videos. The first one is of Brody dancing. He has really started dancing a lot lately. He doesn't care what type of music. He started dancing in church yesterday. :)

This is a video of the first time he tried to use a spoon. He did pretty good.

Almost One Year Old

I can not believe that Brody is almost a year old. He is doing so much. He is dancing and trying to talk up a storm. I am trying to teach him to hold up one finger, but he just takes mine and bites it. He loves to play, and gets really mad when he has to stop to do anything else.

I am going to write a big One Year Old post, but I wanted to show off his new picture.

Merry Christmas

I just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We will be out of town for a few days during the Christmas break, so I wanted to go ahead and send out a Merry Christmas Blog. The pictures posted are of a little photo shoot we did last weekend. Have a great day.

"Oh I was born a rambling man...."

Hello. I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I don't have any pictures to post because I only took one. I know what was I thinking. We had a great Thanksgiving, and of course we went on our annual Black Friday run.
Brody is now 10 months old, and I can't believe it. He is doing so many things. He is walking now. He started that on his 10 month birthday. He is saying mama, and when he puts a phone up to his ear he says hi. He will use anything as a phone: remote control, fake chicken leg, anything.
The videos I posted are of him walking and helping me with the clothes. Now that he is a bi-ped, he loves to see what all he can get into. I hope you enjoy the footage.

9 month report

I can't believe that Brody is now 9 months old. He is doing so much stuff. He is into everything. He is almost wanting to take a step. We went to the doctor yesterday for his check-up. He is doing really well. He weighs 21 lbs 10 ozs (75%). He is 291/2 inches long (90%), and his head circumference is in the 97%. I hope you enjoy the video. I can not get enough of this laugh.

Frosty Time

Saturday, Brody enjoyed one of the finer things in life. He had a very little bit of a Wendy's Frosty. He loved it. He kept pulling my mom's arm toward him for more.

Engagement News

Exciting News. Michael and Britni are engaged. Michael is my cousin. They are getting married June 6th.

Jen and Joe are engaged. Jen is Bryan's sister for those that do not know. They plan on getting married June 27th.

So, June at our house is going to be insanely busy. At least they are not back to back. :)

I am so happy for both of them. Congratulations and love to you all.

Halloween Happenings

Happy Halloween everybody. We had a great Halloween. I only wish that Bryan was able to come Trunk or Treating with us. He had a football game that night. We had about three weekends of Halloween fun. It started with a hayride at Nana and Granddaddy's house. I forgot my camera, so I don't have any pics from that night. It was a lot of fun. Ms. Val and Kara did a great job. Then the next weekend we went to Cedar Hill Farms. Then it was Halloween Weekend. We had a party at work, and then we went to see Daddy. We had trunk or treating at church. It was an awesome turn out.


The kiddos all dressed up. This is Kenady, Baker and Brody.

Daddy and Charlie Brown

This is our work party.

This is the cake that I made. I was decorating this cake at 11:30pm. The pumpkin is a result of a large hole in the cake.

Fun on the Farm

We had a great time this weekend with the folks at Cedar Hill Farms. Brody got to ride a pony and pet some goats. He loved the train ride. I hope that y'all are having a great fall.
