The Brody, Addie and Ryder Blog: Thirty One

Brody and Uncle Neal with Daisy the Donkey

Sorry for the delay in posting. Memorial Day weekend seemed to go by so fast (with few pictures taken) so I didn't end up having a post last week. Brody is finally back to himself after his stomach bug. It took almost a week for him to get back to his smiley self. He has also had a growth spurt in the last week eating 6 tablespoonfuls of cereal and a vegetable each night. Since we started stuffing him full of food he has slept through the night two times!

Jim traveled to Indiana this week for work but was only gone for one night (the first night Brody slept through the night). Then on Friday we headed to my parents and Jim and Brody stayed there while I went on to Detroit to see my friend Barb. It was my first night away from Brody and I have to say that I did pretty well! It helped that my friend has two daughters (Skylar, 3 and Sydney, 5 weeks). Barb and I actually headed out with some of her neighbors on Friday night for a few drinks so it was nice to get out and catch up on each others lives and tell old stories from college. We both agreed that we hoped her daughters did not do some of the stupid things we did! Brody did very well with Grandpa and Grandma - he slept all night for them!

Last night was my Grandma's 95th birthday party so Brody got to meet a lot of family on my mom's side. Then this morning we went over to my brother's friend, Angel's house to show Brody her donkeys and horses. He sat on a few of them and petted them - it was pretty cute.

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks (one of the HUGE turtle that was in the road over memorial day weekend).

Hope everyone had a great last few weeks!

The huge turtle that was on it's way to our yard! He brought all the neighbors out of their houses last weekend. Jim and one of the other neighbors transported him back to the pond area across the street.
