PARTY AT CHURCH

Today my Sunday School class had a birthday party just for me. Happy Birthday to Meee! We had cake, juice, and doughnuts. I had the best time. I also got some gifts. I got a cool truck, some money, and some books. Thanks everyone for a great birthday party. I loved it.



FALL FESTIVAL

We (Faith Community Church) had our FALL FESTIVAL on Saturday Night at my house. I had the best time. I got to crawl around everyone in the back yard, ride in my wagon, play Go Fish, ride on the hay ride, Trick or Treat, and eat.
I had the best time.


3 YEAR CHECKUP

WoW!!! GUESS WHAT? I GAINED 2 POUNDS! I now weigh 25 pounds 8 oz. Goooo Meee! I had to go see Dr. Tibbs today for my checkup and to get my flu shot. I was playing around before the doctor came in and bumped my head. Dr. Tibbs came in and had to put ice on my head. The flu shot hurt a little bit but not much.I got a cool looking Band-Aid! I hope everyone has a great weekend.

THURSDAY with MEME


I went to visit MeMe and GrandMac on Thursday. We had a great time and of course you know all I wanted to do was climb the stairs. My mom couldn't even visit for watching me climb up and down. I sure do get my exercise in when visiting with GrandMac and MeMe.

BIG BOY STUFF


Well now that I am three I thought it was time to start acting like a big boy. Today me and my mom were outside trying to put together a so called Fall Scene for our yard. Well as it turns out I wasn't much help! I really wanted to crawl all over the place. It was so much fun!!! In the middle of me having such a great time I fell down. My first accident that required Band-Aids. My mom says I was such a big boy getting it cleaned. I had to use peroxide, then ointment and then it was Band-Aid time. What fun it is to be 3!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRODIE

BRODIE

3 Years Old!!! What I like to do... I like to do whatever it is I want to do! I am so stubborn but my parents think it is adorable. I get in time out alot lately and I really do not like it!!! I like to bite, pinch, pull hair, and stick my tongue out and blow! I am currently walking in my walker and doing great. I am starting to steer it. I am working on canes and walking with one hand held. I am pulling up on things now but not really cruising furniture yet! My favorite foods are bacon, grapes, rice and gravy, Reeses! My favorite restaurants are anything to do with a Japenese Steakhouse, Chinese, or Mexican! Weird I know! I am really into horses right now and I like to play with my barn. Don't worry I still like the "MONKEY"! I love to be outside doing anything. I also love to be on the GO! GO! GO! If someone opens a door I will crawl out to my bus and pull up on the door because it is time to GO somewhere~anywhere! I love to ride on the golf cart! Which I do not have one I just use all my grandparents. Maybe one day!!! I am attending USM's Children's Center for Communication and Development and loving it. I am a people person and get everyone's attention that I come in contact. My favorite movies are Baby Moves and God Made Animals. I know how to put my hands when I am praying. I am beginning to listen to stories as they are being read while looking at the pictures without going crazy to turn all the pages. I am trying to eat with a spoon but do not really care for my food to be on a plate. I think it should be on the table so I can play with the plate! I know there is a ton of things that I am doing but I really can't think of everything right now so just know that I am the BEST little boy around!

BRODIE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY

Brodie's Party was a huge success. We had hot dogs, sausage dogs, chips, dips, candy, cake, and candy apples. Almost everyone I know was at the party and I had so many gifts. I loved everything I got. We played on the swing set, had a hayride, played on toys, kickball, horseshoes, and much more. I think everyone had a great time but better yet I know that I had the best time. All I did was crawl around and do what I wanted to do! Yippee!!!

Thanks to everyone who came to my party and for all my gifts. I love them!
Be sure to watch the video of my party!

TUESDAY

Tuesday was such a big day. I had my graduation. I stopped by Graham's football practice and he made a touchdown! Goooo Graham!!!!I went to Bailey's soccer game. SHE SCORED A GOAL!!! Oh my gosh it was so exciting! I was so proud of her and everybody else too by the way they were screaming at her. My friend, Landra was on the other team (Mrs. Shonna's little girl) and so we got to see Mrs. Shonna. Landra had made me a cupcake and it was so good! My new cousin, Caleb, was born. He weighed 8 pounds 8 oz. He is so beautiful. He is having a few problems with his lungs so please remember him in your prayers. He is doing so much better already but you know I just don't want him to have any problems so keep praying.

GRADUATION!!!

I graduated from Early Intervention in Laurel! They only do services for 0 to 3 years and guess what? I AM NOW ABOUT TO BE THREE YEARS OLD!!!







School Monday

Monday was school day and I had the best time. I wore a bright white shirt to school and when my mama picked me up it was all kinds of colors. I painted, ate chocolate pudding, drank red Kool-Aid, crawled and walked all over the playground. I had the best time at school today.




WEEKEND

This weekend was full of things to do. I went to the soccer game, out to eat with Granna and Papa, to Church and to a picnic with Nana and Papa! I hope all of you had as much fun as I did!!!

Soccer Game watching Bailey






Picnic with Nana and Papa's church at Lake Ross Barnett in Mize! It was so nice. We saw ducks, played with rocks, walked everywhere, and played on the swingset.

PUMPKIN PATCH

We went to the pumpkin patch today in Collins at Mitchell Farms. We had a blast. I went with mom, Mrs. Michelle,Rustin, and Katye. When we first started out we relized the Katye had gum in her hair. We played in corn, took tons of pictures, looked at sunflowers, went on a maze, saw animals, went on a hayride, and even picked a pumpkin! We also met up with Mrs. Cindy, Andrew, and Kaitlyn. I think everyone had a blast. There were so many good pictures that I wanted to share all of them so we made a video.

PICTURES OF CLASS

These are the pictures of my new classroom that I promised to post. It is so great! Look how big. I have so much room to play, sing, color, paint, dance, and listen to stories.





I did not go to school today because my mom had a doctor's appointment. I stayed with Aunt Kathy and I had the best time. I love going up and down her steps. What fun!

SATURDAY

As usual mom forgot the camera. For some reason that is happening more and more like she really has anything to worry about except for snapping pictures of me! Well me, mom, and Nana went to Alexander's Furniture Store in Bay Springs to look for some things for Nana's house. We saw lots of pretty things and I really wanted to get into it. We went to Pizza Hut and I used my spoon the entire time. I only dropped 3 bites to begin with and the rest is in my tum tum! Gooo Meee! This is something we work on all the time. I really do not understand why I have to use a spoon! It is pointless to me. I do just fine picking things up off the table. Later that afternoon I played with Papa and showed him how I can walk on my canes like a big boy. You know only big boys get to walk like me! Saturday night we rode over to Mt. Olive to visit with MeMaw Jo, Aunt Ann, Christopher, Uncle Tom, Aunt Patrice, Aunt Joyce, Brittany, Bailey, and Brooke! We had a good time visiting with all of the Crawford's but especially climbing up and down all of Jo's stairs. WoW it was fun!!!
