My son....the platypus.

Ever since Brady was born, he has rarely closed his mouth. I always thought it was because his tongue was too big (and he does have an extremely long tongue...thank you John), but now I am wondering if he knew all along that his lips were just too big for his little face and when he closed them he looked like a platypus. He has recently over come this concern and finally learned to close his mouth and wow.... I'm not sure what I think. All I have to say is that Angelina Jolie has nothing on his lips!

Back from the dead.....mostly.

So, I hate being sick. What's worse than being sick yourself is having to take care of a very sick 6 month old child while you are sick yourself. Two Sundays ago, in the wee hours of the morning, we ended up in the emergency room because Brady was having a very difficult time breathing. Once we got him there, he calmed down and the doctor diagnosed him as having RSV, a respiratory virus that apparently is pretty common in your babies, and the only cure was just to wait it out. Well, that's what we've been doing for the last few weeks, and bless his little heart, he decided he wanted to share his virus with the rest of the family! Wahoo for being sick...not so much. Anyway, we are finally slowly on the mend and are very, VERY excited about getting back to normal life again!!!

The above shot was one of those 'I can't believe I got this on camera' shots. As a side note, at the time Brady was very confused about what was going inside his nose.

Why is it that naked baby pictures are so cute.....

Brady had a little mishap with the rice cereal the other day, but it did give us an opportunity for some cute diaper shots. Check out those rolls! I don't even know if I can count that high!



Um....yes, that is the true size of his belly...very impressive if I do say so myself.
