This week in pictures

Brady is in to everything.  Like literally, he wants to get into everything that looks like it might be able to contain him.  Laundry baskets, shelves, and drawers are all popular choices.





Entering is easy.


Exiting is a challenge.

 

This picture above is from a museum.  One exhibit allowed kids to place a ball on a track and watch it as it went around the room and eventually ended up dropping in a box.  Brady was in heaven as his two loves (balls and boxes) merged together.  Balls literally dropped into his lap.


The sink is a big hit as well, almost like a box.  Toothbrushes are also very popular.  Yes, there are 3 toothbrushes in Brady's hands.  It's never to early to practice good hygiene.


The neighbors called our house and asked us to turn down the volume on Eric's shirt.


If you're not up on the latest fashion trends, florescent colors are in this season (see above), as are capri pants for men.  Lucky for Brady.


And nudity never goes out of style.

Weeble-wobble

A few days ago, I shot this video trying to get Brady dancing.  He had other plans!


Pardon the crazy lady at the end of the video.  I always swore I wouldn't be the crazy lady.  I am the crazy lady.

Oh deer

There were lots of sights to see last weekend at the beach - beautiful ocean, full moon, a man running on the beach with headphones on and juggling clubs (dubbed "Eric's uncle), and lots of deer.  They seemed to have a run of the development we stayed at, and didn't seem fearful of humans. 
This one sat under the tree in our neighbors yard for a few hours.

This was a mother and her two fawns in "our" backyard.  Both were nursing quite vigorously.  Chad's comment, "Looks like that hurts."

Checking out the baby deer

A different kind of animal
During my 20 minute walk around the neighborhood one evening, I ran into 8 different deer.  Pardon the fuzzy phone pictures.
Check out the deer leaping on the left


The deer on the left was diseased.  Be glad this is fuzzy, because it was a sad sight.

Not a complete post without a Brady picture!

Life at the beach...again

We went on another fun beach trip last weekend before Eric disappears for two weeks during basketball camp.  This time, we went to Emerald Isle with some friends. The house we stayed at was great - ocean view, pool in back, private beach - you know, all the things I might have if I had a (few) million dollars in the bank.  I probably never will, and I'm ok with that, but for now, I feel lucky to have the next best thing...nice friends who offer up their houses to us.
