Trip home to PA

We had a great time at home for Thanksgiving, even if it did take 17 1/2 hours in the car to get to and from. I am not looking forward to that trip again in 3 weeks. Just a few more pics from the trip.

The Chief.

Hanging out in his undies at Mimi and Pap's house since his Dad couldn't find diapers and he peed through his outfit.

At Mike and Emily's wedding. How cute is that tie? If you didn't notice the tie take notice now, it is hard to look past the fact that my Dad was holding him down near his ankles. Doofus!

The Lasher Family looking all snazzy.

Brady wearing Uncle Tommy's hat. I don't know who is cuter in that hat.

We LOVE Santa

Brady went for another visit to see Santa today with his Uncle Jacob. He was such a good boy smiling and wearing his Santa hat.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving! Here are some pictures from Brady's first Thanksgiving. He looked so cute in his striped outfit and Chief Brady hat. His Grandma and Uncle Jacob made it for him to wear.

Here are the 5 Lasher boys. It only took 14 tries to get a decent picture.

Brady and Uncle Chris

Here is the Chief at Thanksgiving dinner. We woke him up from a nap so he could sit at dinner with us and he was a good sport about it. He wore the hat happily and played with his new bib.


Uncle Jacob put on a clarinet recital and of course Jim thought he could play, he couldn't in case you were wondering.

Here is Brady when we were still at home trying blueberries. He loved them!

Moes # 8 even though Moes in not our favorite anymore, Chipotle moved to our #1 spot.

PA or bust

We are heading home for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I am not looking forward to the drive and am really hoping Brady sleeps the whole trip. A girl can dream, can't she? We have 7 tons of crap to pack into our car, here is hoping it all fits! Here is Brady getting pumped up for the trip.

"Hmmm, what do we have here?"

"Mom, did you see what you wrote?"

"HEHE, Mom wrote bitches! She has a potty mouth!"

And here are a bunch of random pics from the last week.

Here are Brady's 2 teeth. If you look really close you can see them on the bottom.

Here is Brady trying out his new ride. We needed a lightweight stroller since we had to retire our carseat frame stroller. I think he digs it!


Here is Brady eating banana chunks in the mesh feeder. It is a gross concept, but he loves it. And it is super messy!


This is Jim's idea of putting Brady down while he gets ready to go for a drive. I found the kid sitting in the front seat. What a dope!

Here is Brady working at his "desk". That's what it looks like to me at least.

6 months in review

Look at my big boy grow!

6 months old

Brady is 6 months old today. I can't believe how fast the time flies. He had a doctors appointment this morning and did very well. He is growing like a weed and his big melon is just getting bigger and bigger. His height and head are both in the 75th percentile and his weight is in the 50th percentile. He is 27 3/4 inches long, his head is 45cm, and he weighed 17lbs .5 oz. He got 4 shots today and was such a brave boy. After 6 months, he isn't broken so we must be doing something ok.

What do you think?

Well, it looks like the bouncer is no longer a feasible option. This took him all of 30 seconds to do. Bummer! I loved this thing and so did he, but now that he figured out how to move around on the floor he would rather be doing that, and removing his socks and shoes.

Trying to Crawl

Here is Brady trying to crawl on 3 different attempts.



And two pics of us hanging out. And yes, I have brown hair again.
