Thanksgiving Weekend!!!

 Thanksgiving was rough.  The entire family was sick.  In fact, dad never came out of the bedroom on Thanksgiving.  Scooby had to carve the turkey!  It went pretty well!  Besides the turkey was HOT!!! :)  Aunt Mary Ann and Uncle Tom came over.  This is starting to be a tradition. 
 The kids love uncle Tom!!!
 Brody loved the Christmas Tree.  He liked taking the ornaments off the tree better then putting them on!!!!

 My little artist.  Brody really loves to color!  We played games at my moms on Saturday night.  Brody colored while we played catch phrase! Good time!

Great weekend turned into one long Sunday!




All the girls and Brody got together Saturday night for dinner and a movie.  I was worried about Brody because he was acting so crazy at dinner.  We drove ourselves to the movies because I wasn't sure how long Brody would last.  Bennett rode with Brody and I.  Brody kept saying Bennett all the way to dinner.  It's cute how much he loves her!  The movie was great and Brody did awesome.  He didn't cry once.  He sat on my lap the entire time.  He fell asleep about an hour into the movie. I'm so proud Brody did so great at his first movie in the movie theatre. 
 AND THE MOVIE WAS....PUSS IN BOOTS!!!!! 
 Brody had his second wind and ready to play with the girls after the movie.  Brooklyn got to ride back with us since Bennett rode there.  Brody again kept saying Brooklyn.  It's crazy how much he loves these girls!  They play so well together.  We played until we could not play anymore.  11:30 and Brody was ready for bed.  He was getting pretty crabby so it was time for us to go home!  What a great girls night and Brody! :) 

Brody got up Sunday morning ready to play.. acting normal!  He went down at 11:00 so we was well rested before we went the Bennett's soccer game.  Brody work up at 1:00.  I put him in his high chair for lunch when it all started.  Brody threw up 16 times from 1:30 to 8:00
I called the doctor and they told me the first 4 hours is the worst.  We waited as long as we good before finally making the decision to go to Children's Mercy. 

 



We finally took him to Children's Mercy at 8:00 last night.  All Brody wanted to do was hold my hand the whole way to the hospital!  They gave Brody a pill that kicked in right away.  Brody got to drink grape powerade...which he loved and the doctors would only let him have one syringe full every 5 minutes.  Brody was not happy.  He cried the entire 5 minutes. 
The ride home was better then the ride there.  We had our bucket just incase Brody had to get sick again. 
The next morning....Brody was happy to be home with Daddy because Mommy had to work.  Brody is laying with his good friend Buzz!  I'm sure he will get to watch Toy Story 3 all day today!!!! :)

It all began last night!!!

Yep, Brody loves Barney.  He wakes up saying Barney and goes to bed saying Barney.  It's all my fault.  Ever since Brody was born I have always sang to him.  The song I love the best is I Love You, You Love Me.  Brody's grandma and grandpa got him Barney tapes for Halloween and we watched the very first one last night.  Brody was so excited.  He was running all over the house saying Barney Barney Barney.  Last night we watched Barney goes to the Zoo.  Barney visited the Meercats and Brody loved it.  He stuck his arms out as straight as possible and said...ticka ticka ticka ticka....like he was tickling the meercats.  I was cracking up.  We really don't want Brody to be a TV watcher, so we decided to let him watch one 30 min video a night.  This could be one long winter in our house!!! :)
