Random

Braden loves listening to music with his Mimi.
His first car! He LOVES this car. It has been a very wise $40 spent. We use this instead of the stroller at Wal-Mart and Target and he is SUPER! We even had one lady take a picture of him with her cell phone because she thought he was so cute:)
Big boys- Braden and Colton (11months). We went to Johhny B's the other night with a friend and the boys enjoyed their sippy cups while the moms got to visit:)



He has also been using his walking toys to walk around the living room and get up and down. He is growing up too fast!!! He will be a year old in a few weeks!!!!!
We have been dealing with our first case of thrush the past week:( The first antiobiotic did not get rid of it so now we are on antibiotic #2 and I think it is going to get rid of it. Not only is it in his mouth now the infection has spread to his manly parts- uggghhh! Supposedly this is not abnormal because once the infection is in your body it can spread to other areas- poor fella. Needless to say, with the hurting mouth that has meant less sleep for him and the mamas. It has been pretty rough but we are hanging in there. Jill commented the other day that this motherhood stuff is tough- I so agree! It can be so hard at times but man he is worth every second:) We are so in love with this little guy!!!!!!
We are on Spring Break this week:) Jill and I both NEEDED this time off work. It has been one crazy year getting used to being moms, taking care of another person, time management, KTIP for Jill, and other responsibilities had just taken it's toll on both of us. We are getting some things done around the house, a little shopping, and relaxing-- which has been GREAT! Unfortunately it is going by toooooooo fast!
I hope you all have a wonderful week!!! 11 month pictures to come soon:)

Wow where has the year gone? What do you have planned for his first birthday?

He is a cutie! Where did you get the car if I can ask?

I honestly can't wrap my head around the fact that it will be 1 year since these guys were born!
Farty is all over the house pushing his toys, but loves pushing his high chair best. Even ran the cat over with it recently...
Ouch on the thrush! Hope it clears up soon, I imagine men of all ages get grumpy any time their manly bits are involved...

have you tried any probiotics for the thrush? In our experience, antibiotics make thrush worse. You can get probiotics from whole foods. They make them for little guys too. We used diflucan for ours and that worked ok....but thrush is hard. It's yeast. And that grows with the help of sugar. We also found yogurt helpful. Plain yogurt. Peanut loves yogurt too, so tat was an easy treatment.
