Picture post & Question about Strollers?

Brody's eye is doing much better!!!!! Thank goodness it was so pitiful to see his little eye like that, but he is much better!!! Not a whole lot has been going on around here... but here are a few pictures just to let you see!

Brody is rolling all over the place now and he scoots around all the time. I will lay him on his play mat and the enxt thing I know he is on the other side of the room!! haha










Yes he is wearing his Louisville onesie that his Daddy just loves, but mommy prefers UK!!!


He loves hanging out with his daddy on the front porch when he gets home from work

Brody loves to stand up against the couch, or tables with a little assistance from his Daddy

Me and my Baby boy

Kisses from his mommy!!!


Brody and my nephews they went to Gatlinburg and brought Brody back a little black bear and they were all matching in their madras!

This weekend is the 4th of July and we aren't for sure exactly what we are doing yet, but whatever we do I am sure it will be fun! I'm excited to see what Brody will do during fireworks. Will he like them or will they scare him?
I have the Chicco Discovery Stroller System that I absolutely love!!!!! I would recommend it to anyone, but I am wanting to get something more lightweight and that takes up less room in my trunk and not so bulky. I don't want to spend a whole lot of money but I want something more than just an umbrella stroller. I want one that is sturdy, comfortable, and has a basket at the bottom... any suggestions?????

Brody's Eye Infection

My poor poor baby. I took him to the DR yesterday and he called it "conjunctivitis," aka. eye infection or pink eye. He said he doesn't really call it pink eye in babies so he likes to call it an eye infection. I have no clue where Brody could have gotten this from, we are home 90% of the time and he doesn't go to day care or nursery at church or anything, who knows. The Dr. gave us some eye drops and said it should be much better by today. Here is a picture from last night, don't mind the bananas all over his face.
I didn't get a picture this morning but I will say it is not better AT ALL, but actually worse. I feel so bad. He doesn't really cry with it until he wakes up and can't open his eye and I am using a warm cloth to help open it, he doesn't like that much. I hate this!!!! I hope it is better by this evening!!!

Brody's Poor eye

Brody woke up this morning with a little swollen, red, gunky eye. I cleaned it out and was just going to see how the day went and then he went down for a nap and woke up again like that so I called our DR. and talked to a nurse and said since it was swollen ( even if it is just a little bit 0 the Dr. has to see the patient. So we have an appointment at 1:30. I tried to get a picture of it but you can't really tell too much. Plus I am one of those mother's that worries about each little thing, can't help it!Just a picture of Me and Brody before we were going to church a couple Sunday's ago! Brody's great-grandparents (Roland's) got him this little baseball outfit, so I put it on him y-day and took some pictures before he outgrew it!! I thought he looked so cute!!



Brody Loves to sleep on his daddy!! I love these two so much!!!!!!

Rolling Over!

I have to make a quick post about this so I can remember this milestone!!!

Brody rolled from his stomach to his back about 2 weeks ago but would never roll from his back to his belly. I had him laying on the floor this evening and he just started rolling like crazy!! From his back to his belly and then from his belly to his back!!!!!!

My baby is growing up!!!!!!!!!

BIG BOTTLE NEWS!!

BIG BOTTLE NEWS IN THE ROLAND HOUSE!!!
Brody just took his first bottle!!!! He would take a bottle ( not very happily and not very often ) of milk I pumped until he was about a month old and then he would not take a bottle at all. I tried about 7 different brands from the best to the most expensive and nothing worked at all. I never leave him and if I do it is for like no longer than 30 mins. He is my sidekick that's for sure. Of course it would have always been easier to leave him had he of wanted to take a bottle, no way not my lil man. I even tried juice recently, nope no way. So this evening I was like I have a 3 pack of bottles (LUV bottles) someone had gotten me and I hadn't tried so I decided to mix a little pear juice and water and see what happened and here you have it............... He gulped it down and drank 5 oz!!!!!





This is what we have been up to...

I'm doing a post in pictures of what we have been up to the past couple of days!!!!



Brody loves carrots now!! He loves to take the spoon to feed himself!!
Timmy started working on a project. He took our garage door down and boxed it in and put up a double door. He is making it his "Man Cave." Well he is going to put his weights and workout things and a couch and TV and some of Brody's toys!!
Kisses for Daddy on Father's Day!!

Trying out a little umbrella stroller!

Brody trying out his little baby pool. The big pool is intimidating sometimes! He loves it! He has now decided he likes the big pool too though. But he likes sitting in his bumbo seat playing with his toys and toes in the water on his own! But of course with MOMMY SUPERVISION!

Happy Father's Day to my Dad!!!

I have already posted once today for a Happy First Father's Day to my wonderful husband!! But I cannot forget my own Father because he is simply the best!!!!

Happy Father's Day to the most wonderful father I could have ever asked for. There are so many words and things I could say about my father and how much he means to me and what a wonderful christian father he is that I would be here all day, all night, all week, all month, you get the point. I am a Daddy's girl and just like my card said that I got him " I will always be your Little Girl Daddy, even when I am all grown up." My dad has always been there for me, my mom, my sisters, my brother, our whole family. He has shown us what life is all about and how to live a Christian life for God. Family is so important to all of us and I have my dad to thank for that. My dad is so sweet, caring, genuine, just simply amazing!!! Thanks for all that you do for me Dad!!! I love you! Happy Father's Day!!

Happy First Father's Day

Happy Father's Day Timmy!!!!!!

I hope that you have a wonderful first Father's Day! Brody is 5 1/2 months old and you have been a wonderful father to him. You are everything I could have ever asked for in being a father to our son! Thank you so much!! We love you!!

xoxo,


Mommy & Brody Luke
