How often we hear "time flies". But it is made ever so apparent during certain moments in life. One of these being, my little fellow turned 1 yr old on the 29th. This time last year we were spending New Years in Baptist Hospital with our brand new addition. So much has happened in the past 365 days. It is so exciting and thrilling and a little sad all at the same time. Brody has been such a laid back kid from the very beginning, he goes with the flow, however he recently has been finding his voice. He started walking at 10 months and hasn't stopped giving his every effort to keep up with his brother. He is a peanut weighing a whole whopping 3 pounds smaller than Aidan did at this time. We may face backward in the car for awhile, but he's tough and determined. Brody hasn't loved sitting listening to books over and over as much as his brother, but he is a cuddler. Every night he makes his rounds to give out his kisses before bedtime. He laughs a lot, is a little mocking bird, falls a sleep quickly and sleeps well and long (like his mommy), loves to play with nothing more than a ball (like his daddy). Aidan is such a good big brother, and Brody adores him. My job as their mommy is so fulfilling and full of joy and adventure. I can't wait for all the years ahead, but right now I want to take the time with them to get down on the floor and play trains, to dance and sing and act silly, to read them the same story 10 times over, to laugh at the little things, to be "Nala"while Aidan is "Simba" and Brody "Pumbaa".
Happy Birthday, My Sweet Brody.
On Christmas Eve, we had a birthday lunch for Brody with the Collierville crew.
And on Thursday, the 29th, we celebrated at our house with Gran, Papa, and Aunt Donna.
