Rough Week at the Lees!

It's been well over a week since I wrote, and I actually have a good reason: we have been sick…a lot…at the Lee household.  Well, not the entire household, just Bryant and I.  In the past week Bryant has been to the doctor twice, he has had an inner ear infection, fifth disease, and a stomach bug.  As for me, I had a sore throat, fever, etc… that I ended up taking antibiotics for, and ended up getting Bryant's stomach bug.  FYI...stomach bug + pregnancy = awful!!  One of the worst moments was probably when Bryant threw up in Publix.  Poor thing, we had just walked in to grab one thing and he threw up everywhere.  All over me, all over him, all over the floor, and the worst part, all over/in my purse.  However, I thankfully was carrying my retro metro bag that can be washed, and I was reminded why I love Publix so much.  They helped with everything and were so sweet.  Anyway, that was definitely a first, although I doubt it will be the last for something like that. So as you can see, it's been a rough week here.  However, we are both on the mend, and I am praying and believing that we are going to get 100% well and stay that way!!!  Despite the sicknesses, I have taken a few pictures of the little man to share.

 Lining up his shot.  He has gotten pretty good!
His face rash from the fifth disease. :(  Or at least that's what the doctor thinks it is...
 He LOVES this puzzle!  And he is so good at it. 
 Cutie Pie!
 Talking on his phone
 His hat from the Thanksgiving Feast at Preschool.
 The teacher gave him the name Chief Running Bull because he has been having trouble with tackling the other kids.  Ha!
Pulling all of his books out to read before bedtime.

Until next time…

Weekend in Opelika!

We had a fun time in Opelika this past weekend.  Josh went to the Alabama-LSU game with his mom and brother, so Bryant and I went to visit my parents.  It was a great time as always.  We didn't do much, we just mainly hung out.  We did things like go to the park and we went to lunch with my grandmother.  As is typical these days it seems, I wasn't feeling great, so it was so nice to have my parents help with Bryant.  My dad has so much energy that he can chase Bryant for hours.  It's great for both of them! :)  Anyway, below are some pictures from our time in Opelika, and just some from the past week!

 He's so cute!
 Loves climbing into his rocker and reading to himself.
It's so sweet…reading his Bible.
 Watching some football
 Talking to Jojo
 Getting tickled by Jojo.
 They love each other :)
 Practicing his football throwing skills
 Playing basketball
 Getting ready to dunk…Here we go...
 Lifting higher...
 And higher...
 And he DUNKS it!!
 So proud of himself…and ready to do it 20 more times!
 Pops and Bryant
 Apparently dirty basketball hands taste delicious!

Until next time…

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!  Bryant had a fun "Halloween" this year.  We decided that he was still kind of young to go Trick or Treating, so we passed on that.  Although it was a little tempting thinking about all the candy I could get and eat myself! ;)  However, we did take Bryant to his first Fall Festival.  It was so much fun!  It was held at the church I go to for MOPS, First Baptist Church Pelham.  They had all sorts of activities.  They had about 6 different inflatables, tons of games, and lots of food.  Bryant got to play a few of the games that were for the preschool age kids.  He did so good!  He also got to have his first experience in a bouncy inflatable.  I would say he is still a little young, but he enjoyed it.  Every time he was able to stand up though he immediately fell back down.  So really he would just migrate to the wall and watch the other kids bounce.  He had a huge smile on his face the whole time!  Then we…and by we I mean me…got some popcorn, fresh corn on the cob, and hotdogs!! :)  Lastly, I have to share that Bryant really may have been the cutest kid there.  You would not believe how many people commented to us about how adorable he looked.  And we also had so many people that were like "Oh my goodness, look at the elephant.  That is so cute!"  And yes, it was!!!

 My little elephant!
 Of course he had to play on the playground.
 Playing a game at the festival!  He put the animals into the ark!
He did so good.
 Digging for a toy.
 His first experience in a bouncy house!


 Watch Out!!  There's an elephant in the bushes!

Me and my little boy!  Love him so much!!

Until next time…

A little of this…a little of that!

I realize that it has been a week and a half since I have posted, and I do apologize.  I guess I have just been a little lazy.  Oh, and pregnancy and sinus troubles have played a part too!  Anyway, we have not been too exciting here.  We have pretty much been living the norm.  Hanging out, going to the park, and a few "special" events.  One special thing we did was go to Josh's softball game.  Josh plays on his work softball team, and they have games on Wednesdays.  Well they finally had the early game, 6:30, so we went to support him.  They lost, but Bryant still had fun!  Below are some pictures.


 On the field with daddy pregame.
 Practicing his wind up
 He had a blast throwing the ball and running to get it.
Eating his yummy dinner I packed while watching the ballgame!

Another out of the norm thing we did was have dinner with our friends Brian & Julia.  They have a little boy, Paul, that is 7 weeks older than Bryant.  They also have a 4 month old, Walker.  We don't get together with them near as often as we would all like, but when we do it is lots of fun…especially for the boys!  They are so cute to watch, and since they are SO close in age, they are at the exact same stage.  Below are a few pictures from our night, and one SUPER CUTE video that you just have to watch!

 Waiting to greet our friends
 The boys eating their supper
 Bryant of course had to give Walker some attention too.
 Playing in the shower curtain
They were being hilarious.

Here is the video of them playing.  It is one of the cutest things ever!!!


Like I said, otherwise it has been the norm.  Below are some more pictures of Bryant, a few at home and then a few from lunch at Cracker Barrel.

 Always holding the follow through of his swing
 Cutie pie watching tv
 He had lots of fun in the rocking chairs while we waited.
 Doesn't the hat look great on him? :)
He REALLY enjoyed my blueberry pancakes I shared with him!!

Until next time…
