this is the little fella after some play time on his hippo gym in his big boy bed!! at least the bed is used for something....... a little play time here and there, and every once in a while he'll catch him a cat nap. notice the passy on his chin. believe me, he would be letting us know if he realized that is was out of his mouth and that he wasn't being held. we would definitely be hearing how well the set of lungs on that boy could work. this poot pot was zonked!
and a pose for mommy....

my buddy and me
what a happy baby i found today when i got in from work. we played and had some photo sessions as you can see. is he growing like a weed or what? i love these pictures and especially the last one. it shows one of his dimples that i can't ever get a picture of. man, ya gotta hate the delays on the digital cameras, it starts to get annoying after a while....ya know? babies really don't actually stop and pose. brady's personality is really starting to come out and it is so much fun. he really cracks me up when he discovers something. his new thing now is his hands. he thinks that half of his fist should be in his mouth at all times and he has been such a slobber box lately...i think he should have a couple more months before the teefies start coming in, so i'm not sure of all the drooling..but it's okay!!! this little boy is definitely gonna keep us busy for many years to come.
what a joy he is.......

WHAT A BIG BOY
ENJOYING HIS "BEBE" SEAT, OR AT LEAST I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT'S CALLED. BRADY'S AUNT SHELLY BOUGHT THIS FOR HIM...REALLY NEAT HUH? IT DEFINITELY HELPS THE LITTLE TERD KNOCKER WITH HIS STRENGTH, CONSIDERING HE ABSOLUTELY HATES BEING ON HIS TUMMY. HE'S DOING GOOD ON GETTING RID OF THE "BOBBLE HEAD" THOUGH. HE'S ACTUALLY GOT CONTROL NOW. NO MORE BOUNCING BRAINS!!

2 month doctor visit

brady cole went to his 2 month visit yesterday (monday). he was in the 75th percentile with his weight and his height. he weighed 12 lbs and 12oz and is 23 1/2 inches long. growing fast!!! he also got 4 shots which is always a sad thing, but he did great last night and wasn't too fussy at all. he was actually smiling and back to the normal brady by the afternoon, but we give thanks to that cherry liquid tylenol :)Posted by Rachel at 5:17 PM 0 comments
laid back



these pictures were taken this past sunday afternoon, while brady was enjoying more pool time!!! at nine weeks old, he's definitely not scared of water and enjoys every minute of it. i guess that can be a good thing or a bad thing. we just don't want the little buger being accident prone like daddy :)

Staci, Brady, and Mommy

These are pictures from this past Friday night on the beach while we were waiting for a table at Bahama Bob's. Brady surely enjoyed his "Aunt Staci" paying him a visit. We had lots of fun. Doesn't the "little mama" look cute with her baby bump? Looks just like she swallowed a grapefruit to me. Just 12 weeks, so we have a little longer to find out what the rascal is going to be. Brady Cole definitley thinks that he is getting a girlfriend out of the deal, but ......we'll see!!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!
TODAY IS ACTUALLY OUR 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY. MY HOW TIME FLIES!! IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S BEEN A LITTLE LONGER, BUT I THINK MAYBE BECAUSE WE'VE DONE SO MUCH IN THE PAST 2 YEARS, AND OF COURSE WE NOW HAVE BRADY COLE. WHAT A FUN FILLED WONDERFUL 2 YRS IT HAS BEEN!!! THIS IS OUR LATEST FAMILY PICTURE THAT WAS TAKEN THIS PAST SATURDAY NIGHT. WE CELEBRATED THE ANNIVERSARY A LITTLE EARLY AND SPENT THE DAY OUT ON OUR BOAT, WHICH EXPLAINS THE REDNESS. THIS IS US DROPPING BRADY AND LEXI OFF AT GRANNA AND PAPOO'S BEFORE GOING TO DINNER AT THE OYSTER BAR IN PERDIDO!!! IT WAS A FUN SATURDAY AND THE FOOD SATURDAY NIGHT WAS VERY YUMMY!
