Brody's 1st Birthday

Our little Brody is ONE! This year flew by and it seems like yesterday he was born. (It's amazing how you can remember every detail of a specific day!) I have mixed emotions about Brody turning 1...he is no longer a baby (sad!) but is starting to develop his personality and "play" with Nolan. It is so fun to watch them interact and entertain each other.

At 1 Brody...

Weighs 19lbs
Wears size 3 diapers
Wears size 4 shoes and 12 month clothes
Takes 2 naps a day...a morning (2-3hours) and an afternoon (1-2 hours)
Drinks milk from a sippy and loves to eat! (So different from Nolan!) He loves macaroni and cheese!
Sleeps 7:15p.m. to 7 a.m.
Loves to go on walks in his stroller or ride in shopping carts
Walks EVERYWHERE....his walking is turning into running
Continues to love baths.
Understands the word "No" and pouts when he hears it
LOVES TO DANCE! He likesto sway his head to the music and move his body
Says Mama and Dada
Loves to build and knock over towers, and loves to play with balls.
Plays peek-a-boo all the time
Is able to follow simple directions: Go get your ball, come here, turn around, push, pull, roll,
bounce, stand, walk, and a few others.
Has the cutest little giggle that can make anyone's day better!
Continues to bring joy to our lives each day!

We also celebrated his birthday this past weekend. We did the theme of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" which is very fitting since he loves to eat! Here are a few photos of his special day. We ate pizza, opened gifts, watched a slideshow of his first year, and had cake!

Nolan's 4th Birthday

Nolan is FOUR YEARS OLD! Time has gone by SO fast and this year has been especially great watching him be a big brother. He has matured a lot and amazes us everyday with things he says and does. He went on a "bear hunt" for his birthday and got a new bike!
At 4 years old Nolan...

Weighs 31lbs and is 41 inches tall
Wears 3T and 4T clothes
Goes to 3 year old preschool and loves it
Enjoys playing games, puzzles, Transformers, and his tablet
Loves to read books-Go Away Big Green Monster and Slippery Fish
Enjoys playing outside and squirting things with his spray bottle
Is still a picky eater, but getting better
Loves music and to dance-his current favorite songs are Sugar and All About the Bass
Has started playing Mario Kart Wii and Disney Infiniti on Xbox
LOVES Brody and playing with him in his crib
Brought birthday treats to school (popsicles) and loved being the helper of the day!
Is very enthusiastic about things!
Will be playing soccer, baseball, and taking swim lessons this summer.
Continues to bring joy to our lives each day!

Spring Break

We decided to take a mini vacation over spring break to Omaha. There are so many fun things to do and it is only 2 hours away. We were fortunate enough to have Aunt CC come join us! We were there Sunday through Tuesday and had a blast at the Omaha Zoo, Children's Museum, and Pump It Up. Here are a few pictures from our trip.We had a great time and I am sure we will go back!
