recent events...

First....a little update on baby Jett. He's 3 months old now. He smiles all the time at just about anyone, sleeping through the night, starting to giggle, loves his big brother who smothers him with love! Just a cute, happy baby!!!!!

Second....in honor of Memorial Day, wanted to remember all of our loved ones who are looking over us from heaven. We visited Pat's grandparents on Monday. Grandma Ethel, who passed away last August and Grandpa Ed (who I never had the honor of meeting) who passed away a little over 11 years ago. We miss you and hope you guys are happy to be back together again.

Third....we took Brody to see Brad Paisley in concert. Brody likes Brad Paisley but LOVES Justin Moore, who opened for Brad Paisley. Brody loves country music and can memorize a song after just a few times hearing it. He's got "Backwoods" and Small Town USA" pretty much down! Here are few pics from that night.

Fourth......Brody just finished soccer, here he is getting his medal from "Coach Pat!" :)

Brody made the last goal of the last game. Pat definitely had a "proud Daddy" moment. I saw it. And Brody through his hands in the air with so much excitement....it was hilarious! Jett went to all of his big brother's games....just sat on my lap and took it all in.

Now onto t-ball, last sport of the summer. Then swimming lessons. Whew....

Date with Daddy

Pat took Brody to a Royals game last week, just the two of them! It was a very eventful day for them.....Slugger came by for a visit and scared Brody to death, then Pat and Brody got on the "Smile Cam" on the big screen and Brody hit a home run at the "Little K".

Billy Butler is Brody's favorite player.

And, of course, a picture of Jett. He's smiling all the time and I almost got a giggle out of him. Here he is at 2 months old.

Cute picture

Sinead, Ann, and I teamed up and tried to have a photo shoot with Jett. It was very humorous....Sinead was the photographer, Ann was in charge of positioning him, and I was in charge of lighting (meaning I held a lamp over top of him)
Anyway, we got a few good pictures...I thought this one was so cute!

Compare.
