Video of Brodie's first Horse Ride in July, 2008

This is video of Brodie's first horse ride on July 5th, 2008. Please excuse the profanity that erupts from my mouth. Mama was just a little bit nervous!

Puppy Giggles

Here's Brodie.....laughin' it up while he chases the poor, poor pups in his walker.

Almost mobile

What a face! This is of course after he attempted to get on all fours. I still can't load these pictures in order that I want them!

What a face!

Aaauugghhh...almost there!
Sooooooo close!

He loves to sit up and play!

Weekend at the Lake

Cody and Brodie and I ventured to Mom and Dad's last weekend. It was great because Jeff, Kristi, Aidyn and Nolan and Ron and Joan got to come too. We spent the weekend eating and visiting. We had a wonderful time! Here are some pictures of our shenanigans.....

Look at this big boy standing up!

Cody, Brodie and I with Grandma and Grandpa Trapp!

The Strang family!

Us and all the kiddos! This is soooooooooooo Mr. Nolan!

Our family....

Again...........

Gpa Trapp enjoying Brodie!

Nolan..or Nolsky...which Great Uncle Craig likes to call him......he's king of the swing here!




My grown up niece, Miss Aidyn!

Little man in the airplane swing....check out the boots people!

Giant chew toy!

He chewed on the spoon like this for quite awhile!

Labor Day

Labor Day Monday was the only day Cody and I had off over that weekend. Auntie Sash came to visit and we all went to the Renaissance Festival in Shakopee. We had a great time and the only pic we took was of me......hoggin' out with two of my favorites there. The only thing missing was the giant pickle!

Ok...an hour and 20 minute nap and my time is up because I hear little man on the monitor! You are all updated! Now I need to go grab my baby and hug him and love him and change him and play with him.......and possibly brush my teeth.......maybe sweep the floor........hey...is there a maid out there somewhere.....or even an organizer of some sort? How about a housekeeper, organizer, chore doer............well enough wishing! Gotta go get the boy......Cody is somewhere doing manly stuff......shims....stain...lawnmowing...something! Catch you all later!!!! I should really pee too, and maybe shower......these are the days of our lives.............and we LOVE it!

8 Months

We cannot believe that our little Brodie, our miracle baby, our Christmas baby, the one that wouldn't come out, the one that without modern medicine, wouldn't have come out and we'd have both been gone, the one that was so tiny and could fit on the length of my forearm, the baby that scared us night one, with low sugar, and IV's and some breathing issues, the little precious, wonder............8 months old! God is great! Brodie is a gift and every day with him is a joy!


Give me that camera mama!

Standing up for just a couple seconds by himself!

Standing up like a big boy with Daddy.

Those toes are fun!

Look at my cool teeth, I have a new one on top too and workin' on the fourth!

Mommy and me~

Blah.........I have a cold and can't breathe from my nose, but I am still happy!

Those yummy toes again!

Gotta love that belly....and there you can see those teeth again!

What a cutie pie, sitting up like he owns the place. We love him so!
