I got my wish...from a park day to sledding, yowza! Brennan went to his friend Brody's house to sled today and the boys had a good time! Brennan thought the snow was tasty. Here are some pictures.

park day





























Another warm day means another trip to the park :0) Brennan of course had a lot of fun. We took his four wheeler out there and he really liked that. Got some good shots so I thought I would post them. Loving the random warm days, but we would like some snow to sled on, too!

Perfect Progress




















Brennan is evaluated by the Health Dept and Physical Therapy at St Elizabeth's up until 2 years of age. Usually every 3-6 months. He has always been behind in most areas, but staying on track for where he should be, being a preemie. The Heatlh Dept came out today and he is doing really well according to the Denver Scale, which is the tool they use to evaluate him. He is mostly right on target for 18 months. He did really well cooperating with them, too. We are SO proud of him! We are also too thankful that he is absolutely perfect after being born 11 weeks early. I posted a few more pictures. He is 19 months now :0) I got very sad the other day thinking about being on the stretch to 2 years...time goes by way too fast!! We have so much fun with Brennan and cannot wait to see what else he has in store for us in the months and years to come!

Brennan Goes to the Dentist :)















Brennan went to the dentist last week. I didn't really think of it as a fun experience, but it was. My friend Carrie works there and she makes everything fun :) The dentist was so nice too! Brennan didn't totally dig it, but he had fun playing with some of the toys. Here are a few pictures Carrie took for us. (Yeah can you believe I forgot my camera?!)

Independence











You've got to love toddler independence! Brennan is craving it :) It is so neat to watch him learn, they catch on so quickly. Brennan is set on mastering walking and he is really getting the hang of it fast now. When we are out shopping, long are the days he would sit in the stroller for the shopping trip. Now he wants to be down walking with everyone else. Very funny, but a little difficult at times. He is not quite to the point where he can keep up with everyone :)
Today I was holding him in the kitchen and he wanted animal crackers so I opened the bag to get him one out. He shook his head no and pointed to the cabinet where all of his baby food supplies are. So I carried him over to the cabinet and got one of his little bowls out. I poured some of the animal crackers in to a bowl, stood him up on the floor and he carried the bowl to daddy and started snacking. I am so amazed sometimes at all of the things these little ones know!

So in the start of November Brennan had 4 teeth. He now has 11! He has not been himself the last couple of months. Still very good considering all of the teeth, but geez 7 teeth in 2 months?! He is getting his molars (all 4 of them I think). He has his first dentist appt Thursday so we will see what they say. My good friend Carrie works there so I am very excited for him to be able to see her :)

Trying to get some Christmas pictures up, I may just post them in their own thread. Here are a few from Mississippi. He LOVED the piano!!
