Brody is in full force teething hell and I'm right there with him! His top front four teeth have broken through and hopefully the worst is over, but oh lordy, what an ordeal.... Fevers and fussy have been the name of the game lately and lots and lots of naps (at which time I regain my sanity).

However, I think this might also be leading to a development jump...Brody seems to be working on walking...when he lets me put him down. He stood up solo in the middle of the room the other day and is generally disinterested with being on his bum or knees. We'll see.


He also had his first shoulder ride on Wednesday evening. My mom put him up on her shoulders as we walked around the construction zone in their neighborhood after hours and looked at all the big cool construction vehicles. What fun! Brody is such a boy with his interest in trucks. He even makes a vroom vroom noise when he is playing with them...it's unbelievably cute.
