9 Months

Brody turned 9 months yesterday! At his visit he weighed 17.2lbs and 27 3/4 inches. Dr. Frank said he is growing well and his top FOUR teeth have broken through the skin, but have not come all the way in yet...that explains alot from this end! Everyone always tells us how happy Brody seems all the time and while for the most part it is ture, he does throw a fit every now and again. I just happened to snap the pictures at the right time so the first 2 are him in the middle of a fit! Jay and I think it is quite funny when he does it because all he wants is for someone to pick him up...ROTTEN! But we love him that way!

Starting to throw his fit.

The middle of the fit.

Right after the fit. :)

Happy Boy!

He really is starting to like Lucy and wants to touch her all the time!

Snow Day!

OMG! Snow Day!
So when Jay left the house this morning (4:45ish) there was no snow and by the time Brody and I got up (6:15ish) there was! We did what we usually do in the mornings and there was no news of school closing. So I left at 7 like normal to drop Brody off at Brandy's. I got there at the same time as my friend Stephanie, so we left and I followed her to school. We did have to make a stop for some breakfast :) So while we were driving we get the call that school was on a 2 hour delay. We decided just go go ahead and go because we were already half way there. So we get there and to my surprise the parking lot was not as bare as I had expected. So we are there waiting till 10am when the kids were supposed to arrive...then we get the announcement that school was closed and to go home. The roads are supposed to ice tonight so we will see about tomorrow! Of course with the day off I had a list of things to do around the house, but I keep getting side tracked!

What we woke up to outside!

The one thing I did accomplish today!

This Red Raider tree and Aggie tree was something I was hoping to take down today, but I still have not done it!

The load of laundry that needs to be folded and put away before the next load gets out of the dryer...

There Really are No Words...Well Not to Many

This post is over due by a few days, but here it is. Truth be told I couldn't decide if I really wanted to say anything about it or not. I didn't get to post it on Saturday like I had planned because my baby brother got married and we were out of town. I guess the title of this post should really be January 30, 2007. I am not going to go into detail because most of you that read this know the story. Today as I sit here and type this I have a big smile on my face because of all that has happened since that day! I am thankful for my Husband, for my Sweet Baby Boy, for my family and of course for Lucy. People always ask why I did not take any pictures of him hooked up to machines and tubes. I just say that had EVERY SINGLE DOCTOR been RIGHT that day, that is not an image I want in a picture (I have it in my head daily). I do have some pictures after he woke up and they day he got to go out for his 1st outing! That is all...no more, no less and I am fine with that.

The day before...I had a Snow Day and Jay stayed home with me

His 1st outing after he woke up

Outing to home to play with Lucy...she was so small back then

The "hole"

Our bus tour of the Stadium and to see the "hole" I actually love this picture!

Baby B is 7 months

I know I am a little late on this post. Brody turned 7 months on the 2nd! And guess what? He has 2 teeth! The first one came in the week before Christmas and the 2nd on the week during Christmas. Of course I never knew he was cutting a tooth because he did not show any of the normal signs! He did come down with a very bad cold last week. He had a temp of 102! YIKES! Dr just said that it was the worst case cold and to watch him for breathing problems. He was also put on an antibotic because the Dr anticipated he could/would get an ear infection. So we are finishing up with that and I am slowly starting see him get better day by day! So here are the 7 month photos! Happy New Year everyone!

Brody's 1st Christmas

Well we survived Brody's first Christmas! It was a fun day, but I did not get many pictures because the little guy woke up on Christmas morning with a dang cold! We have been fighting it since! Not fun! I did manage a few pictures on Christmas Eve with the cousins and as a family we managed a family shot! My sister-in-law took that photo with her camera so I don't have it to post! Anyway here are the few pictures I did get from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! I also managed to get a few pictures of some of the toys from "Santa"! How many toys can one boy need?! Hope you all have a wonderful New Year!
Coleman, Lilly and Brody
Cousin Coleman
Brody and his Uncle Bailey!
The only photo from Christmas Day I did manage...Papa and Brody sacked out after a long day!
All of the gifts for Brody
His new favorite toy! A walker from Mimi and Papa! He loves this thing!

Here Comes Santa Clause, Here Comes Santa Clause

This morning I decided to take Brody to see Santa! I was feeling a little guilty since I had not taken him yet...guilt because it is his first Christmas and we still had not made it to see the Big Guy! So we arrived at about 9:50 and they opened the doors to Santa at 10:00. We did not have to wait too long and Brody did great! He of course kept all the people in line in front and behind us entertained! He was showing off big time talking, eating his foot and just being Brody! Santa and his Elf said Brody was one the most beautiful babies they had ever seen...so if Santa says so it must be true, right?! Here is the Santa picture what a show off!
