Busy!

August has been a busy month so far!!!  Lots of anniversary's and birthdays the first two weeks, Lindsey & Kayla came to visit and my girls trip to Boji.   I had a great time in Boji with my college friends.  I don't have any pictures to post this year.  I have a lot of funny memories from this trip though (thanks to Beth extending the olive branch).  :)  I miss those girls.  I wish we all lived in the same town.

Here are a few updates on Brady.  Last week he weighed 20 lbs 7 oz.  His talking mainly consists of the word "Yah".  He is getting very vocal and loud.  Just ask the librarian and the people at church.  Someday he'll learn those are quiet places, but right now it's kind of cute!  He always makes friends with the people sitting behind us in church.  His smile gets them every time!!  He is pushing cars and his train as if he's driving the car on the ground.  I was so impressed when I watched him do that for the first time in the doctor's office last week.  I think he understands what he's doing!  He is always pulling himself up on the couch now or on me.  He really just wants to stand all the time now.  He is also still not sleeping very well at all.  It's getting harder - not easier - to listen to him scream.  I really need to buckle down on this.  And probably the cutest thing is that his cousin Thomas now refers to him as "Brades".  I call Brady "Brades" and he heard me for the first time when we were out in Omaha awhile ago.  He went to go tell my sister what I had called him and when I came home from Boji he was also at Mom & Dad's and was calling him "Brades".  I love it!

And here are some pictures from the past few weeks!

We are now that family with a noisy kid while eating out.  And eating out now consists of Hy-Vee.  Although his expression looks like he's thinking, "Who me?  I'm innocent!"


Loving Lindsey and Kayla!!! 


"Mom, I know Drake is sleeping, but I just want to be by him!"


Trying a Gerber puff that I already softened.  Still hated the texture.  Ha Ha.  I love this picture.....  :)


Helping me with laundry.  We were lucky this time - no spit up on the clean clothes!
