Vroooom...

Guns up!

Brady is definitely all boy and has a new love of trucks. We have taught him to say vroom, vroom when he sees one, or pushes his around the house. He usually tries to push two at a time and gets very irritated when it does not work.

Brady has learned all of the parts of his face and body. He can point to his nose, eyes, ears, mouth, hair, hands and feet. He will also point yours out, if you would like. Brady has become an expert on the Eskimo Kiss. It is my favorite of his new tricks. There is nothing much sweeter. He is becoming so affectionate and loves to give out hugs and kisses to mommy, daddy and the rest of his family...sometimes even strangers. We are loving every minute of it!

HEED!

Man this kid's head is big. We have known for a while it is well "off the charts", but it is really entertaining when he can wear Daddy's visor. Of course it is set on the smallest size, but he can still wear an adult visor. Pretty impressive. I think part of it is the hair! It is getting really long. He is such a cool dude.

Something new every day...

Brady's vocabulary continues to expand and his personality is really coming out. He gets so excited these days, whether it is an airplane flying overhead, a song on TV, seeing the little ducky in his book...it is all the thrill of his life and it is so cute. The simple things.

Brady's new words are zeus (juice), shooos (shoes) - he knows which shoes belong to Mommy and which belong to Daddy. If we leave any around the house, he brings them to us...shooos, shooos, shooos. It is a good way to get us to put our shoes away. He is very big on ni-ni right now and tells everything in his room ni-ni before we make it to his crib. Lamp...ni-ni, books...ni-ni, radio...ni-ni, growth chart...ni-ni, humidifier...ni-ni. Once that is taken care of, he wedges himself and his blankets into the corner of his crib and doesn't make another peep until 7:00am. Brady has become an expert at bedtime!

Morning Snooze

Brady is in a great reading stage. He is constantly handing us books and crawling into our laps. He also "reads" out loud to himself, in his own language and it is hilarious. When he goes down for his daily nap, he picks one book and reads himself to sleep. I went to check on him today and found him in this position. Blanket, Bunny, Book.

Halloween 2008

Brady's 2nd Halloween and he seemed to have a lot more fun this year. He went as a Dooowg and he actually stayed in his costume ALL night. We were shocked. It was a great night and everyone had a good time. We have several friends that live in Lake Highlands, with kids ages 2 weeks to 4 1/2 years. We started at our house, had pizza and then went trick or treating down our street. Our block is great, with a ton of kids and they were out in droves. It was just a bit warm, but a fun night for everybody!
