Top Chef

Brody got a new kitchen this past weekend! Let's just call it another early b-day present :) He loves it!!

I am not sure if he likes opening all the compartments or putting the play food in his mouth better.

MMMM...cheese!

He was very happy to use the toaster. You can pull the handle down and then it will pop up. Everytime it popped up he would look at me and laugh :)

Early Birthday Present

Creative

We bought Brody a potty about 3 months ago, just to get him used to the idea. He does like to sit on it with his diaper, but thats the extent right now. Lately he has found other ways to use it.

Fun Saturday

We hung out on Saturday at Mamo and papa's house. A lot of the family came over and we had a cookout and enjoyed being outside.

Playing cornhole..

Playing in the sink with Chase (Brody's cousin)

Playing in another sink...

Pictures

Please click on the blog on the right hand side (Andrea Roberts Photography). She took some great shots of Jamie, Brody and I. Thanks again Andrea!!!

Another fun playdate

Emmy and Brody play so well together! We are already planning the wedding :)

Bad hair day

After a hard day of dancing and running around Brody can get pretty sweaty which causes what little hair he has to do this.....

This is what happens when you combined sweat and watermelon juice :)

Red, White and Boo Boo

We had a great 4th of July weekend. On Saturday we went to the New Albany parade. Brody had a great time.

Our good friend Lou came in for the weekend. Brody was calling him boooo.

After running around and playing outside, Brody lost his step and fell on the pavement in some gravel :( The pics below are the result of his fall.

Say Chip!

When asked to say chip Brody says poop :) He has also been making mean faces when he see's someone else doing it See the video below.

Seattle

We had a great time in Seattle (aggle as Brody called it). Thanks again Gramps, GiGi (Grandma Janet), Uncle Johnny and Jeremy. We miss you already!!

We left our house around 5a.m. on Sat. morning. It was about 5 1/2 hours total on the planes. Brody did great, thanks to all of the helpful tips I got from everyone.....although he did not nap.

Watching his favorite show....Yo Gabba Gabba!

Brody's cousin Owen came to visit too. They played well together except when Brody decided he didn't want to share any of his toys.

Hanging out on a train to see the mountians.

Exhausted after a long day of sight seeing.

I guess he is the boss.

Space Needle!

Hanging out with Gramps.

On the flight home, he actually fell asleep for an hour.

Slacker!

Boy have I been slacking on the blog!!! I apologize. I feel like the past 2-3 weeks have flown by with being so busy at work, and traveling. I haven't been able to get too many pictures of Brody :( We are getting ready this week to go to Seattle on Saturday for a whole week! We are all very excited. So I promise to have lots more pictures when we get back. And maybe some videos (especially for you Marybeth!!) Here are a few random pics that I was able to get.

Doing a workout with Unlce Nay Nay. Pushups are Brody's excercise of choice. Too bad Uncle Nate can only do them on his knees :)

Lately Brody has been picky as to whether or not his food is cut up or if he wants to eat it whole. In this case he wanted the whole banana! I took a bunch of these pics, because he looked like a kid and not a baby to me...


Brody asks for ketchup at every meal. Although he does not always get it, when he does I have to remind him to eat his food and not just the ketchup. When he dips his finger in it, he will look at you and say boo boo...too cute!

Memorial Weekend

We had a fun long weekend! Brody got a new hat so his head would not get burnt. He likes to wear it all the time!

These pics were taken after a long morning of shopping. I think he was a little worn out :)

On Friday we went to Aunt Dee's wedding reception. Brody was looking good!!

He even out dressed Uncle Nate (NayNay as Brody likes to call him)

Monday afternoon we went to a cook out at Brody's good friend Emmy's house. They played with the water sink forever! Even after we took their bathing suits off they, got wet in their clothes. These pics didn't turn out as good because somehow Emmy's face was not in any of them :( Sorry Emmy!!
