Curly Q

Look at these curls! It is five million degrees here in Texas, but we just cannot bring our selves to chopping these curly locks! Obviously the more humid it is, the more curls you see. This is what I would consider a humid/curly day.

A Talking Machine

Brody is starting to talk more and more. I am loving listening to his little voice. Of course I think he is the smartest thing EVER, but I am his mommy so I am allowed! It is amazing how much he has grown, changed and developed these past 16 months.

Here is a list of the words he is saying to date and using in the correct context:
Thank you (my fav) "taan choo"
Milk "mal"
Snack "nak"
More "ma"
Elmo "Melmo" (so cute!)
Dog "daaaaaaawg"

Sock "ock"

Shoe "shhhhhh"
Juice "uice"
Bear "baaarr" (new this week)
Ouch "owww"
Duck
Truck
Vroom vroom
Hot
Bye bye
No (doesn't say too often)
Uh oh (first word besides momma and dadda)

Thanks Brody! What a helper! While "typing" this he said and waved bye-bye to the iPad and gave it a few kisses. Towards the end he must have been getting frustrated because he started yelling at the computer!

All that hard work must have taken a lot out of him and really worked up a thirst! He drank the rest of his milk in no time!

The Fourth

We had a low key and relaxing Fourth of July weekend, and were we glad to have an extra day off!!! It was really nice to have a weekend with absolutely no plans! We knew we wanted to see fireworks, which was the only thing on the agenda for the whole 3 days! We spent part of Sunday over at a friend's house so our kiddos could play and so the adults could visit. Hamburgers, potato salad, great company to chat with, and 2 adorable one year olds made our day perfect, while ice cream and fireworks made the night even better!
