Brady

Brady's communication skills have really just flown off in the past couple of months. I came into the kitchen yesterday to put away the breakfast dishes & start prepping lunch while Brady was happily playing in the living room. After a couple minutes of me rattling around in the kitchen, Brady looked over his shoulder and called out to me.

Brady: Makin' lunch, Mama?

Me: Yes, Bubby, I'm making lunch.

Brady: Yogurt?

Me: You want yogurt for lunch today?

Brady: Yes, please.

Me: Okay, you can have yogurt for lunch today.

Brady: Okay, thanks Mama.

This may seem like nothing at all to you, but I just had a completely coherent conversation with my BABY! What is even happening?!?! His little voice is just the sweetest thing you've ever heard in your life. Every now and again, Derek and I will just look at each other and marvel at just how stinkin' sweet this little boy is. We always say: "Isn't he just the sweetest?" Then the other will typically reply something along the lines of: "He's either the sweetest or the absolute worst." Which of course is just par for the course with toddlers. ;) 

Here is a video I just took today of Brady "reading" Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See. If he's not busy lining up his animals or cars, Brady's favorite thing to do right now is read. He loves being read to, but he also loves to shoo us away so he can "read" his books on his own. And he has to either sit on the couch or on the chair in his room to do his reading--he's very particular. ;)

And two more videos of Brady showing off his "tricks" today after he woke up from his afternoon nap..sorry for the video overload! I just really wanted to capture his sweet little voice & personality at this stage.

And here is another video of Brady from a few weeks ago playing with Play-Doh. :)

And last but not least, I'll leave you with a few other recent pictures of Brady. :)  As you can tell, Brady loves going to eat lunch with the girls at school!
 

We are so very thankful for this sweet boy & simply cannot imagine our family without him!
