WOW - what a weekend!!! You've already seen the post of us at "Farmland Adventures" - yes, I think I called it Adventureland, but I think I was wrong...hehehe! It was a fun place regardless of what the name is!
However, I just need to recap Brady at 13 months old and what a wild weekend we had...First things first...
Brady at 13 months - he has really advanced here in the past few weeks. He is repeating words really good and has mastered a few new words. He's been saying "momma and dadda" for awhile but he now recognizes what the words go with! He also will wave and say "bye bye" but it sounds like "buh byyye" and my personal favorite "baby - BAY-BEE" and he will look at my belly. It's precious! He says "wow" "oh" and "me" and is continues to amaze us every single day with something new...He still will give my belly kisses when we say "give sissy shuggies" and it's gonna be funny to see what he does when she gets here! He still has 8 teeth and is eating almost everything but will NOT drink milk! :( Wish we could figure something out here...He has figured out how to do things with toys (like stacking his donuts on the stick where he has only been unstacking before) and figuring out how to turn things on by himself. He still loves books and when he hears "ear, nose, etc." in the books he will point to his ear or his nose or mine or Richie's ear and nose and then he will clap! It is so cute! He is trying to master puzzles but he really likes to hide the pieces! There isn't a drawer or cabinet that he can't figure out how to get into and he has even climbed into our bed all by himself (which is scary b/c it's as tall as my hip)...Not only does he climb, but he runs everywhere, which leads to my next story...
This past weekend - mom came up on Friday and Richie and I had a date night! We tried out Hjem off the square. It was good - small portions for the price though...But, it was sweet of her to watch Brady so we could have a little time for dinner! He was OUT when we got home! Grammie wore him out! Saturday - Farmland Adventures!! It was a blast!! Sunday, Babs and Grampie came over and Richie and I wanted to finish organizing the garage so I can pull my car in...During a break, we were eating a little pizza and Brady takes off running and slips on the hardwood floor and falls. Keep in mind, he falls all the time! He never looks down to see if there is anything on the floor EVER - he just GOES! However, his hands hit the floor so hard and I'm behind him so I can't see how bad it is and I look at Richie and I said "did he hit his face?" and Richie said "yes..." - Brady is hysterical...I pick him up instantly and am hugging him very tight and he's screaming and it looks to me like teeth are coming out of his mouth. Richie's mom grabs a bite of pizza that was in his mouth (didn't know he had - thank goodness it wasn't teeth) and I see blood filling the inside of his mouth...I'm immediately thinking the worst. I don't know how I wasn't crying, but inside I was a WRECK! They got some ice and a washcloth and put it on his lip area and took him outside so he would calm down and I'm changing clothes b/c I just know we are going to the ER - first trip and it's going to be b/c he has bit his tongue off, his teeth are through his lip - I mean, I thought the worst!! And - keep in mind that Friday was my last day of work b/c I'm supposed to really be taking it easy so Bria doesn't come early. Pretty sure this almost sent me into labor!!! About 20 minutes pass by and a popcicle later and Brady is fine. THANK GOODNESS! So, Richie and I are back in the garage cleaning...Tom and Barb are playing with Brady and we come inside for a split second...Brady's foot gets caught under Barb's leg and he does a faceplant into the rug - I'm guessing hitting the SAME EXACT SPOT! What happens you ask??? Yep, in hysterics again and more BLOOD...What in the world??!?!??!? I'm SO stressed and once again thinking 1st ER trip/missing teeth/lip busted through/THE WORST...I'm holding him so tight and trying to calm him down and this time ice washcloth wasn't helping...So, Richie took him back outside and another popcicle later - he is fine...I'm telling you what - NEAR LABOR...I was about to LOSE MY MIND! He is all boy all the time and into everything and I should know that things are going to happen, but when your precious angel is screaming and hurting...UGH - I hate it! I would do anything to take it away! Thank goodness he is completely over it all and totally better, but what an up and down weekend! MADNESS! I'm guessing this is the 1st of many incidents to come...Oh, parenthood...
