Three years ago started the nightmare of Cancer in our lives. Thank you Greg for all of the photos of Matt we have to cherish -- because of you. And thank you for taking him to the hospital and for caring for him so much. He was loved by so many and you were one of them!

This kid loves food and his mommy - LUCKY ME!!!

It's official...Brady-boo is sitting up!

Aunty and the Uncles had to go home today. Brady loved them and it was so good to be with family.

Uncle Jason, Aunty Amy and Uncle Ben came to visit!!
Jack Jack turned 2!!
Syd loves her cousin. Brady is so tired!

Brady is attempting the crawl...the scoot, whatever you want to call it. He's getting around and he seems to be enjoying the challenge so far.
This is his favorite pass time now...jumping!
What a good feeling...planting seeds and watching them grow. It really is an amazing phenomenon, leaves coming from seeds then sprouting flowers that turn into FOOD! This is going to be zucchini which we love to bbq with garlic, red peppers and mushrooms. Today I'm thankful that my husband is good at the bbq!

Yes, this kid is getting hair! YEAH! and he still loves bathtime!

The binks is serious business.
He is such a cuddler...

Thanks for the shorts aunt stephY!

What fun cousin time -- decorating Brady in pink hats keeps Syd entertained. Brady absolutely adores his cousin!

Syd loved making snow men at the cabin! Brady use to HATE his car seat....luckily he doesn't anymore. He still hate getting in and out of it though.

Yesterday was a big day...he took a big boy bath and he slept on his belly for the first time!

How do they grow up so fast!?!?!? I feel like I gave birth to Brady yesterday and now he is sitting up in the bath tub??? This was his first time taking a bath like a big boy and he absolutely loved it! He did try to drink the water but other than that....we had a great time in the tub.

Good times at Pine Mountain....Brayden's first trip to the snow!

This kid is rolling over! and over! and over! He's doin 360's and loving every minute of it!

This is our buddy Nathaniel. His daddy is a firefighter too. Then there is Brady in his first pair of overalls, donated by Ian Grose! Then this is our fireplace that Eric finished after a very long time (lots of distractions over the past year). But it is beautiful and we enjoy it often.

A few expressions....

Sydney absolutely loves your cousin Brady. She tells EVERYONE, I mean everyone (this includes strangers) that 'this is my cousin Brady'. She calls herself his sissy. So so sweet.

Daddy keeps Brady busy when they hang out. He's already learning how to wash the car and loves it. Thanks Aunty Tiffany for the toy -- he LIVES with this thing!

Then there's his baths...he absolutely loves his baths and could he be cuter in his towl from Aunty Amy??

Brady is so much fun these days...he is teething so he tries to get all hands in his mouth at the same time, he's holding up his head, rolling over and is all smiles. The only thing that Brady is not happy about is going to bed at night. Otherwise, he's so happy. He's definitely found his voice and already is trying to talk over his mommy. Today, we are so thankful for this little bundle of joy.
