9 MoRe daYs:)

Ok, so we haven't done much since the last blog, but I dont want to get behind:o) So on Saturday we went to the beach for maybe the last time and it poured rain!! I thought I was gonna be able to get some pics of Derek and brody playing in ocean, but I guess not!

So Brody just loves to sit outside on our porch everyday and get some sun. The air conditioning sits right outside and it puts him right to sleep! But I am so paranoid about it because there are lizards everywhere!!!

I love to spike brodys hair in a mohawk because he really only has hair right on top where a mohawk is!! He has a ton of hair around the bottom, and a few patches of 2 inch hair on top! He has a receding hair line already:]

So Derek thinks Brody is about two years old already!!! He wanted Brody to jump off the fridge to him! ha ha. Brody didn't know what was going on:)

Yestderday the boys played volleyball again and Brody and I went out and watched. Derek took Brody around the volleyball court while he made the lines. They are best buds!!!

I love to take pictures!! Derek doesnt like it so much so I have to tell him when to take em:) This is Brody and I at bath time this morning!!

BRoDy and AShLyNN!!!!!!!

So yesterday was my first time away from Brody for more than an hour or so!! AHHHH!!! But I was so thankful that our friend Rochelle was willing to watch him! And she is so good with him and her little girl, Ashlynn! Ashlynn is a lucky girl:) Anyway, it felt so good to get out. I got to go work with Derek, and we were pretty successful, getting two sales!

So, I left our camera with Rochelle and told her to take some pictures if she wanted to. I didnt have a chance to last night, and when I got on this morning both Derek and I were laughing hysterically!!! Oh my!!! Brody and Ashlynn are both sooooo cute!! They got to play together and had a good day! Thank you Rochelle!!! Here are some pictures from their day!!!

They are boyfriend and girlfriend!!!

So I also have this little beanie that I just love and it is too hot here in Florida for Brody to wear. So last Sunday, before church, I decided that I wanted Brody to wear it to church. I put the beanie on him and it was sooo cute!!

Soooo cute!!! But Derek wouldn't let me keep it on him for church!!!

Here are some other pictures from the week!!!

BrOdY LuKe!!!~

So Derek and I are just in love with this little guy!!! He is most definately the best thing that has happened to both of us, and I have so much to say about him tonight....so I'm gonna blog away!!! haha!!

Well for starters, Brody is getting so so so big way to fast!!(literally) Tonight I went to put these cute little pjs on him that he hasn't been able to wear since he was born because they were too big, and I'll let the pictures explain the rest.....................

Anyway, he would stretch out his legs and the neck would stretch clear down and almost choke him!!!! He never got to wear this one!!!

So Brody is already developing such a little personality. Since I have the blessing of staying home with him, I get to see him grow, develop, and come up with his own little characteristics. My favorite of these little characteristics is when Brody gets tired he throws a big fit until I lay him down, scrunch his blanky up against his face (and it has to be touching his face), and then give him his pacifier!:) I think it is so funny and cute, but he just won't stop crying until I do it! Here is the pic of him tonight doing this!

So after I put him in a different outfit tonight, Derek and I decided to take a photoshoot!!!

Now just a few of Brody.....!

He is just our pride and joy!!! I never knew parenthood would be this good!! Parents who complain about sleep are missing out on a lot of blessings!!!!!

CoUnTdOwN!!!!

WeLl time is quickly winding down here in Florida!!! We are both SO excited to get back to Idaho, although it has been a blessing to be able to live here for a while!! We only have 20 more days to go!! Then we will be flying into Salt Lake, spend a few days there, and then back to our home in Twin!!! Derek will start school full-time and I will be taking care of Brody!! YAY!

Well not much new has happened here so these are just a few pictures of Derek Playing volleyball this morning!!!!!!!!

Getting large and in charge!!!!

I can't believe how fast they grow!!! Brody is 9 1/2 weeks old today and I can't believe it!! He is getting such a little personality and Derek and I are LOvInG every moment of being parents!! So this week Derek got his phone stolen while out working. I was so sad because all the pics of Brody's birth was on his phone because we forgot our camera while in the hospital:( But somebody has some REALLY cute and REALLY discusting pictures!! HAHA.

Here are just a few pictures of brody with his pacifiers, he LoVeS them!!!!(and I think that it is cute:)




I also think this picture is so cute of Brody and Derek. Brody just got out of the bath, and looks bald!! He is also looking more and more grown up!!




And as I have said before, Derek is such a wonderful daddy!!! Derek gave Brody a bath this morning, and I love taking pictures! (Hence the reason there is hardly any pictures of me!)



Now for my all time favorites!!!! I loved these pictures so much that I couldnt choose just one!!! Brody looks so cute here and soooo curious! Anyway, we are so excited to go home to Twin in less than a month!! Derek is all registered for school and has a tough semester ahead of him!!




Thanks for looking and feel free to comment!!!

I said I was gonna try to be better so here goes!!!! Well Brody is growing and growing everyday and will be eight weeks old this week!!! I can't believe how fast time flies!! We only have about 5 and 1/2 weeks left here in Florida!! So anyway Derek is such a good dad. Brody seems to be really fussy at night so when Derek comes home he picks Brody up and sings the Lion King song and shows him around the house for like an hour straight! It is so cute and Brody LOvEs it.... He seems to be just mesmerized by Derek:) So this pic is of Derek singing to him:)



On Sundays we usually go to church and then try to find something charitable to do (Try), and then spend the rest of our time at the pool or beach. During the week, Derek had met a 90 year old widowed woman from Brooklyn NYand said she was so lonely. So he gave her a picture of Brody that he carries in his work binder and told her that he would come visit her. So on Sunday we went to visit her. I dont think that she really thought we would come because when Derek knocked on the door she teared up!!! Anyway, she loved it and so did we! Then we came home and went to the pool, and I finally told Derek that he could take Brody in the pool since he has been wanting to since Brody was about 3 days old!!!
The Famous Game of TPG..... The boys play this silly game every time we go.... they put a toothpick at the bottom of the pool and then try to find it and dive for it..... it's their favorite game...


Derek won!!!!



I always try to do some cleaning in the morning while Derek is home so I can get something done, and so Derek can spend sometime with Brody:) I walked in this morning and they were watching tv together!! So cute:)




Brody is 8 Weeks old this week!!!!

SO, I need to be better at this!!!! Anyway, we have done quite a bit since my last blog so this one will be a short mixture of everything:)!!! So Brody and I got to go to Salmon for the week of the 4th and had so much fun!!! Brody got to meet his grandpa Bunny, Aunt Desi, cousins, Grandma Viv, the wonderful Sessions family, and all of my very best friends back home... The sad part is I forgot my camera in Salt Lake and now don't have any pics:(!!! But anyway, we were sad that Derek didn't get to come with us and he was way excited to see his little boy!!!

This is from the night we got home!! We were sure glad to be off the plane and Derek was very happy to see Brody!!



Sunday morning, after we got home, there was a really bad rain storm. Here in Florida it is their rain season, so when it rains, it pours, literally. It is sheets of rain and is very loud!! In the pictures above, Derek took Brody out in his first rain storm!!! I thought his expressions were so cute:)!!

Later on Sunday Derek took us to the Bass Pro Shop here in Florida!! It was pretty cool and made us miss home a little bit. There was a lot of hunting and fishing stuff and made us feel like we were in Idaho again. Here are just a few pics of us there:)


One more cute story, Derek has been helping me in the mornings because I have be complaining that I feel like I can't get anything done. So we made a deal. Derek bathes Brody in the morning, and I would cook him breakfast.... so I got done cooking breakfast and Derek brought Brody to me so he could eat. I held Brody and thought he smells so good, but not like a baby....Daddy decided to put cologne on Brody like a big boy, or stud:). So I took a picture of how proud Derek was, and then changed Brody's clothes...ha ha ha:)
