Brody Thomas - 15 months old!

Happy 15 months Brody! Here are a few things that have happened over the past few months:

-You are a picky eater now! You still love to eat, but have a STRONG opinion about what!

-You won't let anyone else feed you. You aren't too good with a spoon or fork, unless the food sticks to it well, like refried beans and rice from a Mexican restaurant!

-Bedtime is about 7:30 and you get up around 7 or 7:30

-You give awesome kisses!! We love getting your wet kisses every day! Daddy especially loves his kisses when he gets home from work!

-You still like to read - right now your favorite is a book about tractors and trucks

-You still love to play outside - in the rocks or the bushes or just running all around the yard

You are such a happy boy, and so much fun! We love you so much!



Driving the car at Wal-Mart!







Hanging out with your friend Tanner

And Elle!

Friday night we went to a concert at the library with Elle and Brandy. Brody did really well and enjoyed the music and dancing!





Papa and Grandma went too - they were in town to keep Brody for the Arkansas game so Jay and I could go - thanks so much!

Doing a "snow angel" on the floor while listening to the snow angel song!

Fort Smith visit

We spent the weekend in Fort Smith and had a great time visiting with Grandma and Papa. We had a Thanksgiving celebration complete with turkey and pies since we won't be able to see them for Thanksgiving. Thank you guys for a great weekend - Brody loved it! I don't have a ton of pictures, but here are a few that I did take...

We played at the park for a while on Saturday

I beat you Daddy!

Lots of play!!

Brody and I have been getting more and more busy during the day time - playdates with new friends, lunches with Daddy, storytime at the library, and some shopping!

Playing at the park with Brody's new friend Elle - they love each other!



Elle, Brody and Brandy

Gram and Pop and Tom came to visit for the day last week. We wanted to see them before Gram and Pop left for Vietnam. Pop fixed a couple of our leaky faucets and we went out to eat.

Playing in the play room

This is Brody's new trick - he is "so strong"! It is really cute! People love it when he does it, and it just makes him do it more to get everyone to laugh!





We had a picnic at the park earlier this week with Tanner and Madison - aren't they cute!!

Halloween 2011

Happy Halloween! Brody was a surgeon this year, and had so much fun!





We went to a Trunk or Treat party on Sunday with some new friends. Brody ate his first corn dog, and quite a bit of candy! He talked all the way home about how much fun he had!



Golfing with Elle and Josh





Getting ready to go out trick or treating!



We spent half the night with Ryan and Alisa and their kids...

and half with our new friends Matt and Amanda. Brody was so funny - he wanted to go inside everyone's house, and everytime someone gave him candy, he wanted to open it right then!

The end of the night...worn out!

Brody was so hyper when we got home - he was running around yelling and singing and turning in circles! He likes chocolate like his Mom and Dad!

Some pictures from earlier this week...
