SICK!

On Friday when I picked Brady up from school he felt really hot. I took him home and he had a fever of 102.5!!! So we got back in the car and went straight to the doctor. He assured me after blood work and a full exam that it was just a cold so we went home and waited it out. After 4 days of a fairly high fever and a sad little baby I decided to take him back to the doctor and he ended up having and ear infection in both ears. GO FIGURE! Needless to say its been fun getting readjusted to daycare this week after missing two days!

First day of school

Last week Brady started a new daycare. I felt it was time for him to get more interaction with kids his age and I also thought it would be good for him to have more structure throughout the day. It has been a hard couple of days. I didn't get many pictures because he cried. Being a teacher myself, I know, the best thing to do is just drop them off and leave, even if they are crying. So, that is what I have done! Sorry to all the parents that I have ever told just go... It's a lot harder to do than I thought!!



On the way to school!



The front of his school!



Walking out after his first day!

slacker mom update!

So we have been busy and sick lately and I have been horrible at posting... So lets go back to the snow day.... I know that was so long ago! Here are a few pics of the snow at our house.









As you can see, we were not prepared to dress Brady for the snow... He enjoyed walking around for a few minutes, but had much more fun riding in the wagon. He feet got wet pretty quickly so we didn't stay out for long. We got about 3-4 inches of snow at our house!!!

Getting so big

Brady is growing so fast! He is starting to act so much like a little boy! He loves to be outside, plays games with us, responds to things we say to him, and does so many things for himself. He runs around with the big kids at daycare, and loves it! Here are a few videos and some pics of him at daycare yesterday! Thanks Sherry for all of the memories!

A trip to the doctor

So, today we were home again. Day 2 of school being cancelled!!! Brady has been a little fussy the past few days, but he has been fighting a cold. I wasn't sure if it was just the cold or something else, so today I made an appointment to go see the doctor. We first went and ate lunch with "daddy" at Cracker Barrell! (yummy breakfast for lunch) Then, we headed off too the doctor, which by the way, half of Greenville was there with what looked to be much worse than what Brady had. I kept him in my lap the entire 5 minutes we were in the waiting room. (It felt like an eternity). A child came in as we were sitting and waiting to hear "Brady come on back". She had a bad rash, looked like hives and god only know what else. I wanted to go ask if we could sit on the well side of the office she looked so bad. But, we were called back soon after that and Brady and I ran as fast as we could to the room! Again, I wouldn't let him touch anything, not even the book that he wanted me to read to him. I really didn't want him to get anything worse. The doctor quickly came in and said he had puss behind his eardrum in his left ear. Sounds gross, I know. (and worse than just an ear infection) He confirmed that indeed that puss was an ear infection and we caught it early, so Brady will have to take antibiotics twice a day for 10 days. He faxed the prescription and we were on our way to Publix to get our free antibiotics! We were in at 1:30 and out at 1:42! I guess we had an extra snow day today for a reason!

Snow day!

Brady's other new trick

Brady has also decided that it is his mission to climb up and down the stairs. We had a gate and it broke, so we are headed out to get a new one. Here is a video of him climbing the stairs. He goes pretty fast. Sorry for the camera angle, that's a bad habit of mine.

More pictures from this morning

Brady has a cold and hates for his nose to be wiped. I wipe it and 3 seconds later its running again. Here he is with his snotty nose and funny face!

Having fun in the tunnell!!

The tunnell, not so scary after all

Brady has finally decided that he is not afraid of his tunnell. He really enjoyed crawling through it this morning. Here is a video we took! We have been trying to entertain him since we have been stuck inside this weekend. He keeps going to the door and pointing outside because he wants to go out and play, but it is too cold and rainy to go out.

Just a little pink sand!!!!

Eventhough the sand is pink, Brady had tons of fun playing at daycare today!!!!

Wordless Wednesday! (one day late)

Not a happy day!

So, after talking to Melissa today at work I decided to post this picture. Yes Melissa, it is a memory. So here it is and no I'm not some mean mom who just takes pictures of her kid crying all the time. But in this event, Brady was screaming at me because I would not let him hold the camera. So, I quickly turned it on and took a picture and this is what it turned out to be. My cute little boy, pitching the biggest fit ever!!!!

Wordless Wednesday

My new favorite thing!

Well, after 13 months Abbe finally will tolerate Brady touching her. I think he has fed her enough food from the highchair to win her over. We were amazed the other night when she let Brady try all sorts of news things!!! I think he was pretty excited about it too!

UNDER!

OVER!

So proud of myself!!!

Dinner Time!!!!

I LIKE SALAD, YES I DO! I LIKE SALAD, HOW 'BOUT YOU?
