Fun Weekend

Wow Little Man we had such a great weekend with you. Saturday we enjoyed lunch at our fav Chick-fil-A. Watching you play on the jungle gym and slide down was awesome. Daddy and I were the only other ones in there and in was a treasured family moment. One of the ones you wish that time could be frozen. Then we went shopping at Sam's and clothes shopping for you. We gave some things to Christian and Daddy said, "uh where's all Brody's clothes?" You have just taken a growth spurt and everything is just too short. I really think you are going to be so tall. I look at your hands and think of a puppy's paws, lol. If you grow into those....if you have Wilmoth height and Walker stock your gonna be a force to be reckoned with. I hope you will instead be a gentle giant. You are already showing us that your are easily calmed (sometimes hurt) by our words of discipline. I think you will always be easily hurt. Which like most things has advantages and disadvantages.

We had fun buying clothes for you. I am glad your daddy likes to shop for you too. You were an angel shopping. You really liked the wrench Daddy bought at Sear's. You held it in the buggy repeating wrench wrench. And asked for it back after the sales girl scanned it. Such a gear head, but I don't think you had a choice with grease monkey blood in your veins. Speaking of monkeys. Our neighbor Cole gave you monkey slippers and you have worn them every day.

You love animals. You know their names and the sounds they make except elephants are trunks and any lion, tiger, bobcat or the like are all tigers. And giraffes are giraps. For some reason you LOVE hippos. A lot of times when you say it you say "hhhhippo", not always though. And pink milk is now monkey milk because the last bottle of strawberry syrup we bought has a monkey on the label, lol.

After shopping and your nap Grammy and Poppy got pizza and brought us dinner. You got everyone an instrument and put on your heart shaped sunglasses from Tuesday school. We all played and you danced, played the morocco's and sang. Daddy and I sang with you Grammy and Poppy mostly laughed. So much fun.

Every time we get on I79 going north you say, "church Mommy church". You want to go to class, worship, Tuesday school. You love it all. So this morning was no exception. You were sweet and quiet during worship. Playing with your stickers mostly. And in class Emily was impressed by your verbal skills and animal sounds. You even knew a camel. Awesome. My heart was happy at the Neptune's for home church just watching you dance and sing as we sang "Jesus Loves Me". You played on the rug with cars with only a few interruptions. Such a sweet boy (that's what Alana always says, "Waana" to you)

I can't wait for tomorrow. God is Good. And being your mommy is the best and I am more than blessed for it. I love you Sweetheart Brody Bear!!
