Just some randomness for a Monday

Hello blog world! Long time no posts but this is really not unusal for me. We had a really good weekend, it started off rough but ended well. Chris came home Friday ( at normal time yay!! ) He did not have to work Saturday, which is awesome because 6, 10 hour days makes a nice paycheck but hard on family life, but was not feeling good. He toughed it out and went to Walmart with me, but by the time we got home he was headed down hill fast. Saturday morning came around and he was feeling worse. He had a tooth pulled on Thrusday but that wasn't bothering him. He was aching, thoart hurting and just felt miserable. So after much debate he went to urgent care. He ended up being the only patient there and was dinosged with a  bad sinus infection and Dr. Floyd he was basically exhasuted and needed some rest. He got a Zpak, cortizone shot, and cough syrup and that fixed him right up. Brody and I played all day Saturday and Chris was able to get some good rest. By Sunda...

Stuck

This is just a little post about Brody's favorite new word. It is stuck. Everything is stuck. If he wants to get down he is stuck, if he wants to take his shirt off he is stuck, if you are in the spot he wants to be you are stuck and he wants to move you! It is so funny this little phase of stuckness he is going though. I just want to remeber these funny memories for many many years!! Sorry no pics with this post, but i will be posting birthday party pics, pumpkin patch, halloween decorations, and more very soon!!

Brody is 22 Months!

I can't believe that my baby is almost 2!
