"Santa's Prayer On Christmas Eve"
The sleigh was all packed, the reindeer were fed, But Santa still knelt by the side of the bed. "Dear Father," he prayed "Be with me tonight. There's much work to do and my schedule is tight. I must jump in my sleigh and streak through the sky, Knowing full well that a reindeer can't fly. I will visit each household before the first light, I'll cover the world and all in one night. With sleigh bells a-ringing, I'll land on each roof, Amid the soft clatter of each little hoof. To get in the house is the difficult part, So I'll slide down the chimney of each child's heart. My sack will hold toys to grant all their wishes. The supply will be endless like the loaves and the fishes. I will fill all the stockings and not leave a track. I'll eat every cookie that is left for my snack. I can do all these things Lord, only through You, I just need your blessing, then it's easy to do. All this is to honor the birth of the One, That was sent to redeem us, Your most Holy Son. So to all of my friends, least Your glory I rob, Please Lord, remind them who gave me this job."

6 month checkup

so, today was the day he had to get those dreadful shots again. he did well and only cried for a minute though. he's all better now knowing that @ his 9 mth check up, he'll be getting a break from those mean ol needles. he's still our little chunky monkey weighing in @ 19 pounds and 3 ounces and 27 inches long, which puts him in the 75th percentile on the growth chart w/ his weight and height. hims just a growin little fella.

cute new passy

here is big man with his new christmas passy that my sweet neighbors bought him. he's usually very picky about his passies and spits them out at me if he doesn't want them, which means we've had the same type for a while now. mams have never been at hit around here, but when i put this one in his mouth and it would fall out, it would have to be put right back in. so, i guess we'll retire the ortho pros and move onto the mams cause he lllloooovvvveeess it more than anything these days. (besides his mommy that is) if you look up close the passy says, "I've been very good." i think it's really cute.

6 months old....happy b'day to brady cole

oh my!!!!! where did these 6 months go? it's been half a year already. i can't believe it. we've enjoyed every minute of it, just can't believe how fast it's gone bye. time flies when you're having fun :) this little one is surely keeping us entertained these days. i love all the goofy looking faces he's been making along with those belly laughs. we are soooooooo blessed and soooooo thankful for our little boy. he's our silly little buger.

chatterbox

Guess what Brady Cole can say?

MaMaMa MaMa..... I Love It!! He has discovered that it's a new sound because I really don't know if he knows what he's saying, but I'll take it. I'm answering him when he says it, so that he'll understand that he's calling me. When I put him in his exersaucer to play, for some reason, that's what he starts saying. I'm very suprised that I'm not hearing DaDa because I heard that's what most babies say first, but I'm not complaining. I'm sure it will be coming soon enough. We'll even be riding down the road and he'll be talking to himself in his mirror from his carseat and I'll hear..."MaMaMaMaMa." I just light up like a little kid in a candy store. I just love this little boy!!!!!!

ridin in the shopping cart

finally, he's not laid back in that darn infant seat anymore......he's a big boy now!!! he loved riding in the cart and was just staring and taking it all in at walmart on saturday. he can actually turn his head and check out the things he wants to look at now. so much more comfortable for our growin lil boy. makes it much easier on mama & dada too!! that heavy seat, plus the weight of our big man was getting........pretty heavy!!
