Brody update



Brody just had his 15mos checkup and currently weighs 30 lbs and is 35 inches tall, so he is continuing his off the chart growing. He is actually slimmer now that he started walking finally last month, he is doing so good at walking and even running, we are still working on the shoe part , but it's a slow process.We are enjoying having more alone time now that the siblings are in school. I am amazed everyday at how much he is learning, we are really able to communicate more now. The bad thing is that he is a screamer, especially out in public. When he wants something and doesn't get it it is a full on scream and it is so embarrassing ( I am talking ear piercing type where everyone stares).Needless to say we are limiting our outings at this time and when we do go I try to bring plenty of snacks and drinks and pray he doesn't get bored- sad but true. Brody loves to read books now and loves sing and dance, which I keep meaning to try to get on video. The best things are he now gives kisses when asked and still loves to cuddle!

School's In



"Ava at meet the teacher night"

It has been quite a while since I blogged so I will slowly try to catch up on my posts. The Kids started school about 3 weeks ago. Ava is in all day kinder and has had a great transition and only just yesterday I heard her first complaint- and I think it was only because she is tired. She has already made new little friends and wants to buy school lunch(Yuck- but one less lunch to make). We love her teacher and she already tells me she enjoys Ava.
Cameron is a 4th grader and is returning to his studious ways already- sometimes I wonder where he gets it? He is getting so tall and I am sure it will only be another year or so before he is as tall as me- unbeleivable. Here's to a great school year!!!
