ROAD WORK

They have been doing some work to our driveway and highway 6 the past week or so. There has been huge machines left in our yard and various people working on this project. To me, its a pain to deal with- but to these two, its enough entertainment for a whole day! They could sit by the door and watch all day long.

Pictures

Sorry for the delay...turns out summer vacation with a 14 month old is not much of a vacation at all! Don't get me wrong I wouldn't trade my time off for anything- but we have been busy! Here are some picture of Brody and Everett from the other night.

BRR

It was a very cold and wet weekend so we did not spend a lot of time outside. On Saturday, Ryan and I took Brody to open swim at the Rec Center in Lake Crystal. He had a good time, and even saw some of his daycare buddies there. I think he went down the slide 15 times! That night Ross, Lisa and the kids came over for supper. I think they were getting bored being trapped indoors as well. It appears the rain has ended for now, but we are still waiting on the warm weather.
I have some pictures of Brody and Everett- I will post those later today.

PINK EYE

Brody's eye looked a little red on Saturday so we took him to urgent care to discover he has pink eye. Can you believe we've made it almost 14 months without an ear infection but the poor kid gets pink eye! It doesn't appear to bother him at all- until you have to put the drops in. That is a two person job and he gets so mad. On Sunday after we got them in and he was crying I told him "Icky drops, lets throw them in the garbage." Brody proceeded to take the drops from my hand, walk them over to the garbage can and throw them away! I had to wait until he wasn't looking fish them back out of the garbage. What a stinker.

Sibley Park

We took Brody to Sibley Park back in August before I started working and he started daycare. At that time they were in the process of adding animals so there wasn't much to see. We figured Sunday would be a good day to see how far they've come since I am officially done working for the summer after tomorrow. Grandpa and Grandma came with too. Brody has been getting good at telling you what cow says, and a sheep too. But on Sunday- every time you asked him-all he said was BAA! To give him some credit, we have seen a lot of cows in the last few weeks and none of them will MOO for us! No wonder he is confused! We ate lunch outside and enjoyed the nice day. Hope you all did as well.

PLAZA

We went to Plaza Girabaldi with Uncle Nate on Saturday. Might surprise some of you that I would eat there, but apparently while pregnant I eat anything! Brody just loved this place. The waiters would stop at our table every time they walked by just to play with him and the fountain was the best part. It looks like Brody is trying to drink the water- but I think he was trying to climb in and get more pennies.

Brody's Girlfriend

I'm sorry little ladies, it appears Brody has a girlfriend. And she sure is a cutie! Evie's daddy and Ryan play softball together so we usually see the whole Batt Crew once a week in Courtland. Evie is 2 months older than Brody and she already knows the way to a boy's heart..SHE FEEDS HIM! She is always willing to put cheerios in his mouth, or let him lick her sucker. Brody thinks she's a keeper: )
