Laughing on the Swing

Visiting with Grandma and Grandpa Galloway

Grandpa Rick and Grandma Kelly came down for a visit this past weekend. We had lots of fun visiting and going out to Frankie's Fun Park. We rode go-karts, played in the arcade and the boys hit at the batting cages. There wasn't a lot for Brady to do since he is still so young, but he did enjoy several rides on a little mechanical jeep. He just loved it! He would laugh and smile and even wave to us. We are trying to prepare him for his trip to Disney World, that we will be taking 2 months from today! Yay, I think mommy is probably the most excited! :)

We even celebrated their birthdays with a yummy Publix cake since Grandpa's birthday is March 15th and Grandma's is the 25th. We had a great visit and look forward to our trip to Disney!

Our Wild Man

Our little guy is officially a wild man. He is into everything and all over the place. It is so fun to watch him learn and grow everyday. He still isn't completely walking, but he can take 5-6 steps at a time. He is also standing alone by himself for a longer period of time and getting more balanced. He is getting two more top teeth for a total of 4 top teeth and 2 bottom. He has been on all whole milk for the last month and is doing great. He eats almost everything that we are eating now. He loves grilled cheese, peanut butter and jelly, pasta and bananas. I guess that's about it for now. I will leave you with a few pics of him playing from tonight.

Happy Valentines Day

We had a nice evening at home today for Valentines Day because we went out and ate at Olive Garden yesterday. We also continued our little tradition of roses and chocolate covered strawberries. Joe always buys me a dozen pink roses and I make him chocolate covered strawberries. We took Brady and Hero out on a walk in the neighborhood and fed the ducks in our pond. It was nice to celebrate with both of my Valentines!

Happy 1st Birthday Brady

I can't believe our baby boy is officially a year old. Since we were visiting in NC we decided to have his birthday dinner at El Chapala. They were so nice, they came and sang "Happy Birthday" to him and gave him a sweet treat.

Brady had his 1 year check up this past Monday. I was very surprised that in 3 months he has only gained 13 ounces. He officially weighs 20 lbs 12 oz (20th percentile), is 30.25 inches (64th percentile), with a head circumference of 19 1/8 (96th percentile). The doctor was not at all worried and said that he is still on the same growth curve, and that it would probably pick up after he turns 2. He had to have 3 shots this time, but was such a champ!

He has been doing a lot of teething lately, so hopefully some of the new teeth will come through soon. He still has the 4 with a couple of more coming soon. We are starting to feed him almost everything that we are eating, and only a little bit of baby food. We also introduced cow's milk a few weeks ago and he is enjoying drinking that from a sippy cup. He is only nursing now at night.

He can now wave bye bye, and he is working on showing the number "1" on his fingers, for his age. We are still not walking, but he cruises along the furniture, and can take a couple of steps by himself. He loves to walk behind his green dinosaur. He is also very excited to watch the Green Bay Packers play in the Super Bowl this weekend. Go Packers!
