Brody Pictures

Here are some of the cute pictures that our professional family photographers took of Brody. We was very good for us and slept the entire time. Thanks to Nette and Jon for the wonderful pics.






We went to the doctor today and Brody is doing good. He is 13 lbs. and in the 25th percentile which is good for our family. He is our trooper.

Family Pictures

So my sister Lynette and her husband Jon are doing photography and they are wonderful at it. We had limited places that we could take pictures since we did not want to leave the house with Brody. But they turned out great. These were a few of my favorites.

New Pics

So I got my moms sd card and she had some way cute pictures of all of the cousins and of my boys so I stole it and here are the cute pics.

Brody smiling for grandma and grandpa. He pulls his feeding tube out a lot and any time he does we like to get pictures. This time he did it for grandma and they of course took advantage of it.

Brody with grandma and Bensen with grandpa. Our two newest additions to the grandkids lot. They are a week and a half apart.

Grandpa with Vanessa and Macey. Two of the cutest girls ever.

Clayton, Cody and Macey got to go to Kangaroo Zoo. They love it and this is one of the many pictures. This is the only one that had all of them. I imagine they were going a million miles an hour. I am impressed that my mom got this one.

Grandma with Brody snuggling in. He loves to snuggle and is a very sweet boy.

Clayton

Clayton has been very busy this year. He started preschool with Miss Georgia. He loves it and is learning a ton. He got to go Trick-or-treating with his cousin Micah and he was a monkey this year. He has gotten used to his new brother and loves him very much. He is a very good older brother in everything except being quiet. That word is not really in his vocabulary. He is a wonderful boy and is really quite good. He loves to hang out with Grandma and has learned that if he goes shopping with her he will get a treat and always wants to go with.( this is impressive if anyone has been shopping with my mom they know why- she is a marathon shopper not a sprint shopper). He is also our little entertainer and always has the funniest things to say. For instance he announced the other day "When I grow up I want to have pokies (a beard) like my dad, and a big belly like Grandpa." He is a wonderful boy and is very lovable and always keeps us busy.

Brody

Here are a few pictures of Brody. He is getting pretty big and is gaining weight like a champ. He is almost 12 lbs now. He is a very happy baby and is doing great. He is very aware of what is going on and always wants to be able to see people. He loves his dad, grandpa, and brother the most and watches them anytime they are in the room. He is doing the power nap thing and it is hard to get anything done but you cant be upset with him because he always wakes up with a huge smile. He is a very good baby and we all love him tons.

1 Month Old

Brody is one month old on the 26th. We are excited because his surgery went well and he is recovering very well. He is able to eat from a bottle already and we are working on that. Hopefully he will be able to learn to do that quickly and then he should be able to come home if there are no more complications or surprises. He is getting bigger, he is about 20" and 7 lbs 4 oz. He is a tough boy and we love him tons.

Brody Update

For anyone that has not heard. Brody had his first surgery yesterday. He had to have his tongue sewn to his bottom lip. It will be a semi-permanent thing. It will probably stay until he is 10-12 months old. He did well through the surgery and everything looks good so far. He is kept asleep until Mon. so that he does not move it at all. He will be able to wait until he is 6 months for his heart surgery as long as things stay the way they are. And around the 6-9 months they will do his jaw distraction (pulling it forward). Then around 9-12 months they will correct his palat. We are hoping that the surgery he received yesterday will be all he needs to be able to breath well enough to come home. If all goes well he will come home within the next couple weeks. Thank you everyone for your prayers and support.

Baby Brody!

Sorry about the delay but better late than never. Brody was born on Sept. 26th at 11:06 am. He was 19" and 6 lbs 7 oz. Full name is Brody Craig Lym.

Slip N Slide

We had an awesome slip n slide. It was about 60 ft long and the boys were having a competition to see who could slide the farthest. It was really fun. They were even nice enough to slide me down it, since I can't run and jump on my stomach. They did get some pretty fun war wounds but in all it was awesome. We also had another on the 4th that was a little longer, and we will continue to improve on them- once the boys recover fully.

Ryan sliding down. They started to wear bags because they were sliding onto the grass at the end and it hurt less with the bags.

Nate's turn.

Shon sliding down.

4th of July

We had an awesome time on the 4th. Clayton says that it is called the candy day, because that is what he remembers most. He was very determined to get all the candy that he could and we came home with a huge bag. He also had a great time shaking his hips and dancing to every float that came by with music. It was hillarious, but it will not let me post it so unfortunately you cannot see it right now. But here are some cute pictures of him and Micah at the parade.
