Faster than fast, quicker than quick.

I am Lightning.  OK, so maybe watching Cars over and over is making me delirious.  Nevertheless, we've got a special birthday coming up!  Mom, Steve, and Casey came to visit over the weekend, and we took the opportunity to do a little early celebrating!  Nathan has pink eye and Brady has a cold, but we did our best to keep the grumps in check and have ourselves a good time.

He's getting stronger every day.  He rolled over (front to back) this week for the first time!

It's also entirely possible that he gets cuter every day!

This guy is officially too big for the toddler swings!

Sensory fun with water beads



Watch out Big Bro, I'm a comin' for ya

After Brady's haircut, he got to ride the merry-go-round

and the train!

Our chunky monkey weighs 16 lbs 6 oz now

My first attempt at cake decorating. Ka-chow!

PopPop and Aunt Casey are on the scene



Nana too!

He was pretty excited to see the cake. But will he eat it?



Oooh, he just might do it!
It's touching his lips!

And back out it comes.  Oh well, more for us!

First present... a bike helmet

He's saying "Ooooo," which was followed immediately by "Gonna need a bike!"

Good thing that was his next present! Thanks Nana, PopPop, and Aunt Casey!

One happy boy

Play time and yard work

Naptime is almost over, so this will be another big on pictures, short on words post!

Amazon deliveries make us happy! The box makes a closet to hide in...

And the packing paper is very fashionable

Making a homemade lava lamp



Back to that box

It's a clubhouse!

The little guy wishes he could do all that fun stuff too


But he can lay in the hammock!

Think he's being ironic? (You might have to zoom to see the drool.)




You know Brady has been to the school nurse too many times when he asks for an ice pack every time he bumps his head


Spring has sprung! I have a gardening helper this year.






We attempted our first meal out as a party of four. It went surprisingly well!

This is how I found Brady the other night. He usually sleeps with a receiving blanket over his head, but he's taken it to a whole new level!

Brothers

As I was posting pictures yesterday, I remembered a picture of Brady when he was Nathan's age wearing the same outfit.  I thought it was cute to see them both together.

7/18/10- Brady 10 days shy of 3 mos
