Update!!

Brody turned one Sept 26th- this is before he got his cupcake, which he did not eat. He is the only child that I know that does not like frosting and he would not eat it after he had some. Chocolate is whole different ball game- if only I had known.

This is post surgery a month after his birthday. This is a picture of his antenas that he has for his jaw. We are all done moving it thank goodness and now we wait. Moving his jaw was the hardest thing we have had to do yet. Talk about torture, it made me and him cry. It is hard to do something to your child that you know hurts them so much.

The pictures are in the wrong order, but this is after Brody's haircut. We did not want to give him one but his hair was too long and kept getting wrapped around his antena's. But he looks so grown up. This is the day after we brought him home from the hospital.

This is the day that we brought Brody home from the hospital. He was super chubby! And the swelling has gone down considerably in this picture. He was a trooper though. He did so well for what he had to go through. We have one tough baby!!

This is cute Brody on his birthday prehair cut. We loved his little curls in the back. It was so long and soft. But we love his hair now too.

Well sorry my blogging is so sporadic. It really seems like I should be able to do it more often but every time I get on I always look at everyone else's and I don't get to mine. Plus half the time I get online it is through my phone and I am not savy enough to do it on there. Anyways, we are doing well. Ryan has a few more weeks of school and he is ready for a break. He is doing all his last tests before the finals. Clayton is loving preschool and is doing really well. He is starting to read a few things and is getting the letters and sounds down well. Brody is doing good. He is now to the point that he is over the pain, now we just have to teach him that he can play by himself on the floor once in a while. He always wants to be part of what is going on and always wants to be held. He loves his grandma and grandpa and will pick them over me and Ryan any chance he gets. He learned to go up the stairs on his own because he knew grandpa was upstairs playing on the computer. He is starting to walk if he has a push toy. He loves to sing and dance, and he knows the sound that a dog makes, which is the only animal sound that he will do. He does not talk really but he is starting move his mouth in the same way as us and he does his best. He also learned the word kiss and what to do and now we all get kisses all the time. Very slobbery kisses!!
