However between his bouts of sickness we were able to get him in for some pictures. Out of 55 snapshots taken he smiled in one picture! ONE!!! But isn't he cute. Often people comment that his hair looks red in certain lights and i guess the photographers light did just that! Heath loved another pose he did even though he looks unhappy in the picture. But at least his hair isn't red in that one!
Brooklynn has continued to do well in school. She made honor reader and got her picture taken for the school and was also on the school video announcements! She is the top of her class thus far. She is such a good child! We are blessed to have her!
Brooklynn also finished her season of basketball. Although she enjoyed it this will probably be her first and last season. She had more fun socializing and running FROM the ball than anything else. She might just be our scholar instead of a jock! Maybe she is leaving that position open for Braxton. He has such a good throwing arm already and is starting to get the hang of catching too! He is so antsy to be outside, I can't wait until the weather turns and stays dry so that he can play outside. He turned 17 months today!
I have chosen to start making small changes in our diet. For the last month we have cut out all high-fructose syrup, switched to turkey products, smaller portions, and have finally made the switch to whole grains. Hopefully once those things become "normal" for us then we can move on to other things. The change came at a perfect time because one of the only blessings of the flu is lost weight! I lost 5-8 lbs after having the flu and with the diet changes have been able to keep them from coming back! :) i have now opened my wardrobe up more options from the past! :)
Heath has been working hard on getting the garage clean and has done an incredible job! We actually can fit 2 vehicles in there now (remember it is a 3 car garage!). He has started working on his fishing boat to get it ready for the water. He is struggling with some aches and pains in his hands and wrists so we aren't sure if he will be playing baseball this summer.
