Party Party Party! (literally)



This weekend we had an 'event' every night! Whew.... it was fun, but it certainly was busy. Thankfully, the little Brady Bug did great!!

On Friday night, we had a birthday party to go to at this awesome Splash Park in Allen. Jeff attempted to take Brady through some of the Sprayers, but it was really cold and was spraying a lot harder than it looked, so Brady didn't like it AT ALL! (See pictures... I love the one of his pouty face.... because that's the cute face he really makes when he gets upset!!) The older kids really had a lot of fun, and next year we think it will be a lot more fun for Brady!!






On Saturday night, our Sunday School class had a catfish fry! There were hushpuppies, fried catfish, french fries and a ton of it! Kristin Cameron's dad came up from Longview (outside longview really) and fried it all for us! I had never been to a catfish fry before.... and I must say it was very fun! Brady went with us on Saturday night too... he even stayed up pretty late with us!





On Sunday night, we threw a party for Judd, a long-time friend of Jeff and I's. He graduated top in his class from UT law school and is currently studying for the Bar.... he's moving to D.C. the day after the Bar is over, so it was a combo congratulations and going away party! For this one, Brady stayed at home with our friends Becky and Isaac. My brother cooked all the food for us, Kaytie, Jocelyn and I were just his little helpers! We decided that he needs to start a catering business and we could be his helpers! He went to culinary school and his food really is amazing! (If you ever need a personal chef, let me know!)






Anyway, it's Monday morning at 11:30 and Brady and I are still in our jammies. We are just going to lay around all day to recoop from the busy weekend! The non-swaddling is going.... well, it's just going. Sometimes he's perfectly fine and sometimes he cries for a bit.... and then settles down. Jeff's not as strong as I am on it, he gives in and swaddles him! As far as dropping the 10:30 feeding, he's done that great. On Saturday night, we didn't get home until 10:30, so he was wide awake when I put him down and he didn't go to sleep, so I went ahead and fed him and he went straight to sleep. Other than that, he's slept completely through it, without waking up at all until we go and get him at 7 a.m.! It's amazing how that works!!
