LAND!

Caleb and I just signed a contract on the 10 acres we are buying and hope to close sometimes this week. We are so excited! It is 2 miles West of Lawton Duncan Y so it looks like Brandt will be going to school in Marlow when he gets older. Which is fine with me. Our plan is to first build a shop on it sometime next year hopefully. Then probably a year or so after that we can hopefully sell our current house and start building a house on our land! It is what I have always wanted to do so Im one step closer to living the dream! Plus Caleb can shoot his guns and ride his 4 wheeler on it and finally have a shop to detail cars and work on his "man projects" lol.

Brandt at 13 months

I love watching how much Brandt changes everyday. He has the cutest little personality--or should i say BIG personality! haha. He is starting to act like a little boy now instead of a baby. Its sad and fun all at the same time how fast he is growing up. Even though he can't talk yet he understands just about everything we tell him. When we tell him to go get his book, he does and gets the exact one we tell him to get, when we say go pet the puppy, he goes and pets our dog Kenzi, whenever we say "baby" or he sees a picture of a baby he will do the sign for baby, when we say go get your ball he does, when we say throw your ball he does. He has said outside a couple of times but everytime we say outside he points outside. He has said juice, dog, diaper, bird, and of course momma and dadda. When we say go dance he will go to his little walker car and turn the music on and start dancing, but the funniest one of all has to be everytime he eats popcorn chicken he picks it up and blows on it to cool it off before he sticks it in his mouth. Every bite. Its hilarious! He is getting so smart it's amazing!

Talk about funny things--the other day when he was staying with my Mom she found him in her bathroom with all of her necklaces drug out of the bottom drawer and he was wearing all of them...lol. I was like great, whats next--tap dancing? lol. Of course we took lots of pictures that Im sure he will hate me for when is older.

We enrolled him in Mother's Day Out which will start at the end of June. It sounds like a great program and I think it will be a great chance for him to get to be around other kids and have lots of social interaction! And it will give my Mom a break so she can actually get some stuff done. Im going to continue not working on Thursdays so that will be a perfect time for me to clean house and do laundry while he's at MDO considering he doesn't let me do any of those things anymore since he's so clingy these days. He is getting his two bottom molars--they are huge!! Its so sad! He is still sleeping pretty good in his own crib at night though.

We are leaving for Destin in 1 days and I can't wait to watch him play in the sand. That is if the oil spill hasn't affected their beautiful beaches which im hoping and praying it hasnt!

Easter 2010

Im a little late posting this I know, but we had a really good Easter! I can't believe it was Brandts 2nd Easter already--last year he was just 4 weeks old. Its so weird to think about. Me, Caleb, Brandt and my mom all went to church that morning, then we had lunch with my parents and Brandt hunted Easter eggs. Well not really hunted but just played with them and tried to eat them..lol. He is walking everywhere now, barely crawling at all anymore and he has been drinking his milk out of his sippy cup really good so he has been off the bottle for a while now. Now if we can just get rid of the Binky! He only has it when he goes to sleep at night and I can tell thats going to be a hard habit to break.
