Brody's 2 Year Dr. Appointment


Brody had a 9:00 Dr. Appointment with Dr. Nelson.  Brody is not a big fan of Dr. Nelson's so I tried to prep him as much as possible.  Brody walked into the doctors office like he owned the place.  He ran right over to the toys and played while I checked us in.  Brody was saying all of his colors to the little boy next to him.  We were sitting in a room waiting for Dr. Nelson while Brody talked about all the cars in the parking lot.  He said all the cars were leaving and going to Becky's!  My kid is so funny!   Dr. Nelson came in to check Brody's hears, head, belly, toes, chest, and heart.  Brody sat still the entire time.  He even told Dr. Nelson that he could hear the baby crying.  Dr. Nelson was very pleased with Brody's progress.  He said he is very smart and can't believe how well Brody talks.  He also can't believe that Brody is playing soccer.  Dr. Nelson also told me about things that come with 2 year olds.  Like poison control is very important at the age of two.  He also told me that Brody can have peanut butter and honey.  I still don't love this idea.  We shall take it slow.  Dr. Nelson and I also talked about the potty.  He is not worried about Brody not being potty trained.  He said I would know when Brody was ready.  He also said not to push the issue until 3 years old.

Brody is so big.  I can't believe all of the things he can do!  Our little guy is growing up so fast! 

Brody,

We are so proud of the little boy you've become!  Mommy and daddy love watching you grow and look forward to the new things you will do everyday! 

For instance...Brody put his fingers in his ears last night and said...."I'm not listening"  We had to laugh!!! 



Brody's birthday weekend!

Mother's Day which means another busy weekend!

Friday night started off at the kids carnival.  Brody had so much fun.  He got to play on the play ground with Peyton and eat suckers.  We also hung out with the entire RP gang. 

Saturday morning started with soccer at 9:30 in the morning.  Brody was tired of waiting and fell asleep on the way over there.  I got Brody out of the car and he said. "I'm at my soccer game"  He was wide awake after that!  Saturday was the best day we had at soccer since we started.  Brody played so hard and did everything his coach asked him to do.  The coach also told me that Brody will be moving up a level in soccer.  She said he is too advanced to be in this class. 
This is Brody giving Lil Kicker as high five.  He didn't want to sit by Lil Kicker so I could take his picture but he kept giving him high fives!!! 

Brody taking a water break! 
After soccer Phillip asked me if I would bring Brody up to his work so Brody would visit with Uncle Kevin.  Brody got to sit in the big boy chair and even talk on the phone like daddy and uncle Kevin.  Kevin had Brody saying, Radiator Depot!!!  :)


We made it to the parade just in time.  Brody sat on Papa's lap the entire time.  Brody loved every minute of it.  He got to see Santa, Rex, and the fire truck! 






We weren't in the car but two minutes and Brody was already asleep with his sucker from the parade.  My boy was tuckered out and our day was just beginning.  We had 100 things to do on Saturday to get ready for Brody's birthday party.  Brody was a trooper!  He made it all day with just a few cat naps.  He even made it all through dinner at Corner Cafe for Mother's day dinner for Grandma.  We got home at 10:00 that night were he crashed hard! 

MOTHER'S DAY!!!  Brunch, Drinks, and Jersey Boys with just the girls. 

Mother's day for Mommy!!!!!  I got home and opened my mother's day gifts from B and daddy.  Brody gave me a painted coaster and a bag he colored at daycare and a Coach wrist lit!  I was so surprised. 
We all walked to the school to play on the playground.  Brody loves to slide!  He was telling us about the airplane that he saw in the sky and said the plane was going to Mickey Mouse's House.  This was soooo cute!  Phillip and I had to laugh!  Brody is so smart and remembers everything! 






Thank you Brody and daddy for the best Mother's Day!

Busy Weekend!!!

I feel like every post on Monday or Tuesday is about how busy our weekend was.  Don't get me wrong I wouldn't have it any other way!  Friday night Brody, Phillip and I went to dinner then headed to Little Monkey Bizness.  We all had so much fun.  They weren't that busy, so Brody was able to do what he wanted.  Brody loved to go down the slide and jump in the bounce house.  He also loved spending all that time with daddy.  We like daddy being home on Friday nights! 













Saturday we got up and went to soccer.  Brody got out of the car and said to Logan walking by, "Hi Logan," seriously the sweetest thing ever! I'm so proud of Brody.  He is doing awesome at soccer.  He's listening to is coach.  I love to hear him say, "I listen to my coach."  This makes me so proud.  Brody loves the parachute.  This is the 2nd week in a row that we got to do the parachute.  Pictures are hard to come by since I can't participate and take pictures.  Daddy came this week but he had to hide because Brody and Phillip together is trouble.  Brody wants to kick the ball with Phillip and that's it.  Phillip did manager to get couple videos! 



Brody and I had to be at Heather's open house at 11:00, so we had to hurry.  Heather's studio is amazing!  The kids had so much fun.

Brody needed a nap because we had to be at the Peck's at 5:00 for dinner and soccer.  Of course all the kids had a great time.  We got the telescope out to look at the moon.  Saturday was gorgeous.  We left the Peck's at 11:00.  Brody was still going strong. :) 

Sunday morning we got up because we had to get ready to breakfast with the Peck's.  They invited us to a charity breakfast.  Breakfast was delicious!  We left breakfast just in time.  The rain had moved in and it was pouring.  We went to Grandma and Grandpa's Sunday mid day.  We stayed until about 2:00.  Brody went home for nap while I went to the store.  We had plans for dinner at my moms.  We also stayed there most of the evening since the tornado sirens were going off everywhere.  I'm so glad we were safe again!  My next house will have a basement.

Missing the weekend!

We had so much fun this weekend and I'm sad it's over.  Daddy's game was cancelled on Friday night, so we all got to hang out!  Btody talks about Phillip the entire time he's gone.  He always says...Daddy playing baseball. 

Saturday morning we got up early.  Phillip had to meet Judd early because I needed new tires.  That meant Brody and I had soccer.  This works out better for me because I don't have to worry about two kids!  Brody walked into soccer and started kicking the ball.  One of the dads said he can't believe how well he kicks the ball.  He said Brody kicks better then he does.  I was laughing!  Brody is doing awesome at soccer.  He is listening to the coach and following directions.  He got two stamps this week.  He was told he could have 3, but he is just fine with two stamps on his hands.  I'm so proud of him! 

We went home to nap before we had to be back at All American for Dyson's birthday party.  Brody was excited for the party.  He kept saying, "Dyson's birthday party. Kick the soccer ball.  Play soccer."  He also didn't understand why the party was not at Brooklyn's house.  He just wanted to go to Brooklyn's house!!!   Brody ran up and down the field for an entire hour.  He would ask Judd to kick the ball with him and chanse him.  Brody also played with Brooklyn and Bennett.  He loves those girls so much!  He never came off the field once.  Not even to get a drink.   



We left the birthday party because Daddy and I had to get ready for date night.  We had dinner reservations at Cascone's with the Pecks, Maxwells, Paul, and Sara.  Dinner was delicious.  We left dinner and headed for the boat.  All 7 of us (except Phil) sat down at a black jack table.  First we lost Judd..then Paul, then Brad, then Sara, then Kelli.  It was just Becky and I staying strong!  We had so much fun.  Kelli came back to join and and we all ended up with a little money!   Judd and Becky had to be home early, so Brad and Kelli stayed with Phillip and I until almost 1:00 eating cheesecake and cookies! :)  What a fantastic Saturday night.  I couldn't wait to get up the next morning and get B!  I missed him so much!  Brody was still in his pj's at 8:30.  He was stilling on Grandpa's lap watching the Wizard of Oz.  Brody had so much fun spending the night with Grandpa and Grandma. 

Sunday we all got together for Dad and Scooby's birthday.  Everyone come over including the Denton's.  The house was packed because of the weather, but the kids had fun when it wasn't raining.  We all hung out side for the most part.  Dinner was delicious.  My dad can make the best ribs!!!
