Loving Life and Food!








Things are good here at our household. We are finally over our stomach bug that lasted 6 days!

We took a break while his stomach was upset from eating cereal but when we started back up Brody was not liking his cereal at all! He wouldn't really even eat it. So we moved on to vegetables and he did the same thing with peas, really can't blame him there. So momma decided to give him something yummy, sweet potatoes, and he loves them! I now "trick" him and give a bite of cereal quickly followed by a bite of sweet potatoe. Tonight he ate half a jar of sweet potatoes, cereal and mashed pa-titty, as we call it, and still could have had more if I didn't cut him off. So he's definitely starting to enjoy food.

We went with Mandy and Nina this morning for her 2 month appt and I had Brody weighed to see how much he is now and he's 14lbs and 11 oz, just shy of 1 lbs in 3 weeks!

Brody is also starting to laugh out loud a lot. I put him in his bumbo earlier and he just started laughing for 5 minutes straight. He also loves it when his daddy kisses his belly, he will laugh nonstop when he does that.

He has found his feet but really isn't too into them like most babies are and he has found his temper. He gets so frustrated when something cannot fit into his mouth that he scrunches up his nose and screams at whatever it is or throw it.

His favorite thing to do right now is take his paci out and put it back in or throw it because he can't get it in his mouth correctly. Today he was cracking me up because he would put it in upside down and get the most confused look on his face!

He is still going to bed at 9:30-10pm and sleeping until 9:30-10:00 am waking at 6am to eat. I love it!

Well, I know you are busy, but you forgot to say that Brody is absolutely in love with his Aunt Marcy. He just gets the biggest, fattest, CUTEST smile whenever he sees her. Just needed to record it here for posterity!
