My home computer has been on the blink. I am sorry but downloading Birthday pics almost crashed it so I had to remove them all. So no pics and limited updates. Right now I am using Brent's laptop, he brought it home from the office for the weekend. I am sorry I hope to get it fixed soon.
Brody is doing well. He is traveling around still holding onto things. He has taken a step here and there but usually falls upon trying. He is getting it. He holds up his index finger when you ask him how old he is (ok usually, sometimes 30 seconds after the fact, lol) He does patty cake, jabbers, still loves to climb, and is enamored with peek-a-boo. He is a total joy and couldn't be a more pleasant baby. Currently, he has a stuffy nose. I'm not sure if it is a cold or more teeth coming, time will tell.
We will start RSV shots in November. Also November 1st we will start staying in as much as possible and visitors will be limited as well. His lungs are still recovering from the damage of being a preemie and the pulmonary hemorrhage. Next winter we will not be in as much danger. The cold weather is not a danger as much as the chest colds that travel through the community this time of year, not to forget the dangerous RSV, which can be like a just a regular cold for us and deadly for babies.
Thank you for your continued love and support. I know so many of you still check on us because when I see you...you tell me the last time I wrote on the blog, lol. I can't tell you how it warms my heart that you still keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

We had began to wonder where you have been!! I am sorry to hear that the computer is giving you trouble. We were wondering how you would ever top last years' Halloween costume for Brody? Guess we will have to wait to see it,huh?
Glad that everyone is well and we do keep you all in prayer. Love, Aunt Naomi and Uncle Gene
Hey! Can you believe our little ones are 1 year old? Sounds like Brody is doing well! Isaac is moving right along as well. I found that site that publishes your blog. It is www.blurb.com. I am making a book every year as my birthday gift to myself. You should check it out! I had to change my blog address. It is now www.familyishome.blogspot.com Hope to keep in touch!

It's great to see an update, and I completely understand....it is hard to stay organized with photos and blogs....i spent some time this past weekend sorting through old photos that are in rubbermaid containers and have never made it into an album....and my girls are 16 and 20 ! Sorry we missed the birthday party....I would have loved to have met Master Brody and to have seen you also, but the girls and I had a trip to Hershey that weekend. Hopefully another time...until then, enjoy your beautiful baby boy !! Love ya, Shannon (Starcher) Hamrick
I'VE BEEN CHECKING FOR THE BIRTHDAY PICS. I HATED NOT BEING ABLE TO MAKE THE PARTY BUT HAD A PRIOR COMMITTMENT. COMPUTERS ARE GREAT WHEN THEY WORK WELL BUT CAN BE A HEADACHE AS WELL. I HOPE WINTER FLIES BY FOR YOU GUYS.
