Officially A Walker...

...I had to hold back the tears today as I watched my little man let go of my hand and walk across the doctor's waiting room - I am talking 20 yards!  It was the farthest he has ever walked on his own, and he was headed straight to play with some other little guys.  That was all it took for him to have the confidence to stay on his feet.  Now he's practically running around the house!

Speaking of doctor's offices- this last month has been very busy and we have been getting our use out of our handy health insurance!  We have been through 5 ear infections since the beginning of August, leading us to the ENT last week.  We are now on the books for tubes to go in Brooks' ears on November 15.  His pediatrician feels like this will be really great for him.  In addition, he is also having a hard time kicking this wheeze that has come along with the "cold" we have had for months.  So, we are headed for a chest x-ray this week to make sure there isn't anything we are missing. But Brooks continues to be a very happy baby- which made it very hard for mommy to know he was so sick (and his ear drum ruptured last week).

Brooks was the cutest little lion for halloween!  Everyone loved his costume, and it was perfect for the cold weather that rolled in last week.
Our favorite neighbors and friendly owl :)



Last weekend we went to Blue Ridge for cousin Brody's 2nd birthday!  We all took a train ride, and you can tell the boys enjoyed getting all dressed up (the mommy's enjoyed it too).  Thanks for a great weekend Jen & Dave!






Meeting Santa for the first time!  He didn't cry, but he sure did stare!

Happy 2nd birthday Brody Man!
 

This is what we woke up to (well, and 4 dirty diapers)... it was beautiful!
