It's Official

I was hoping that I would NEVER have to write this post, but I guess that is what I get for saying never! Brody has officially become a thumb sucker!!! It drives me crazy because I know it is going to be such a hard habbit to break! When I catch him doing it I pull his thumb out of his mouth and pop in his paci. Today I was cleaning his bottles and when I walked into the living room this is what I found...my sweet baby sucking his thumb! Oh well, to each his own I guess!

Baby B is 4 Months and it is October!

I waited a few days to put up this post because I wanted to be able to include his stats! We went for 4 month shots today and he was such a good boy! He didn't cry on the first stick, but did on the 2nd and 3rd! He was fine as soon as I picked him up and got him dressed! They usually don't rush us, but we were rushed out of a "side" door pretty quickly because they did not want me to walk through the waiting room with Brody! They said they have seen TON of H1N1 cases and didn't want to take any chances with Brody since he can't get any kind of flu shot till he is 6 months old!
Anyway looks like Baby B is living up to his nickname around here of "Daddy Long Legs"! He was 25.25 inches and weighed in at a whopping 12lbs 7.5oz! Dr Frank assured me he is healthy and growing at a normal rate for his age! She also said that developmentally he is doing well too! He can roll from front to back, according to her he had "great" head control, when on his back he rolls from side to side, he talks ALOT, and last week he found his feet and his tong! Dr Frank also went on to say that since he moves non stop that has alot to do with his weight! Let me tell you he never stops kicking those legs unless he is asleep and he will sometimes kick then too! He did not disappoint any one in the office as he was flirting and smiling with all the ladies.
I love the month of October...yes one reason is because it is my birthday month but also because fall has officially arrived and I get to decorate with pumpkins! I am in the process of putting out all my Halloween Decor and I will up date with pictures of that later. And because I love October so much I could not resist dressing Brody in a pair of his Halloween P.J.'s for his 4 month pictures!

Football Night in America!

I was in the kitchen making dinner and when I walked into the living room this is what a saw...my two sweet boys watching football! I said don't move and had to run to the car to get the camera. I have also posted some random pictures from the past few weeks! Hope you all have a great week!

I'm a big boy now!

Brody started rolling over the other day at Miss Brandy's house. I had to see for myself as I did not believe her at first. Sure enough he did and I was able to get it on video...finally! I have been trying all week! He is such a big boy and he is growing so fast! Jay has been in Colorado Elk hunting and he will be so surprised to see that Baby B can now roll over! Also here are a few photos from Labor Day weekend.

Baby B is 3 Months!

Baby B is 3 months old now! This post was due on the 2nd, but work has been crazy so I'm just now getting around to it! I do not know how much Brody weighs or how long he is because he does not go to the Dr until he is 4 months old! Check Back!
I must say the past few weeks have been a little rough...work started back, Brody went to day care, and let me just say that going back to work is the hardest thing I have ever done! We talked about it all summer long and we decided that for us to be able to live the life we are used to that it was the best thing. Also, I got a new student this year and I really wanted to be there to help guide her. For those of you who may not know, I teach children with Autism/Behavior Disorders and Speech Disorders! I never thought that going back to work would be so hard...one I am SO out of shape (not good), two I miss Baby B so very much all day and three well let me just pose this question to you all...have you ever had to dodge a flying stapler because it was hurled at your head? I did! Sometimes I wish I could stay at home and not worry about flying staplers, or shoes or whatever and then I just take a moment to realize that I AM good at my job and I LOVE my job! Being a mommy is hard but being a mommy who teaches is very hard and I wouldn't change a thing! Hope you all have a good week and here are the 3 month photos!

Picture


I think this picture is really cool. The people that took Brody's newborn pictures in the hospital came out to the house when he was 1 month old and took some pictures of him. They got some really good shots but wanted me to pay ALOT of money for them...we decided that daycare expenses were at the top of the list. However they do give the family one free 8x10 and this is the one we picked. Now I just need to find a place in the house for it!
