Bayler is 8 months...and 9 months!

Hermann the German

We took the kids to the park for lunch a week or so ago and Brody and I climbed Hermann. First time for both of us! We made it to the windows, maybe next time all the way!

Gymnastics

Bren has been enjoying her summer gymnastics class. She is usually VERY enthusiastic (read that - just a little wild). She loves it all, just loves to run and do more when it is her turn to sit. Learning patience is the hardest part. Her favorite is the trampoline, as she still loves to jump!

He's on the move!

Here's a post from June, when Bayler started crawling and pulling himself up. He's 9 months old today! He has been standing independently the last few weeks. He stands up without help, and is pretty stable now, but hasn't taken any steps by himself.

Catch Up!

I ran out of space on my blogger account a few weeks ago, so there has been a delay in the blog posts! The 4th was fun, as usual, but WAY too HOT! Between the heat and the bugs, we had to work at having a good time.

Duck Days 2012

The first celebration of summer, Duck Days, has come and gone! Brody enjoyed a Warhead at the parade.

The crowd at Taid's for potluck and parade.

Playing in the corn pile at the park.

The inflatable obstacle course.

Brody was so excited for the turtle races. This normally shy with strangers boy was asking teenage girls if they wanted to see his turtle! The Nordbys did well in the races, with Brenley and Bayler placing first and third in the 0-3 age group, and Brody taking second in the 4-6 group!

This one can speak for itself!

Yellow Tiger

Brody started T-Ball last night in Courtland. He is on the yellow tiger team.

The evening starts with a little warming up.

nice form, buddy!

Up to bat. He made contact with the ball every time. Now we need to work on dropping the bat and RUNNING to first base, rather than galloping:)

 

 

Brody wanted daddy by him most of the time, but he did get braver as the night went on. Helps that Everett is also a yellow tiger!

 Here's to many more Monday nights at the ballpark
