And no- I didn't believe my husband

When as I was crying into my scarf on the way home from a good, and yet very very bad football game last night that my son had done the impossible and SAID. MY. NAME. And yet- he picked a good time to lie, because this morning my son would not stop saying my name. While POINTING. AT. ME.

It is truly a wonderful day. Even if the Steelers lost. And even if we were (*shocked beyond belief*) unable to procure tickets to the World Series. And even if I should be in the shower and now could be very very late... I had to mention what a wonderful day it is. =)

Sunday Snapshots (a day early, because I just can't wait)

Brody has an announcement he'd like to make.... though I promise he's more excited about it than he seems in the picture!

Teeth!

So we have a tooth... ok, so you can't see it unless you look really close, but don't get your fingers too close or you'll be sorry! =) There is another one that should be through in the next day or so. Even today Brody is a much happier baby, and I am one relieved mama!

(Oh... and if you haven't checked out this site, please do, leave a comment or email me and I will send the invite!)

CONGRATULATIONS!

Brody, Matt, and I want to send our congratulations out to Kate, Dan, Jayden, and new additions (yes, plural) Andie & Allie. Matt and Dan used to work together, and I'm sorry, er, happy to say that we are responsible for his poker addiction. =) We couldn't be happier for you guys, and can't wait to meet the two newest family members! (Oh, you can check out pictures and Dan's blog here.)

The BIG News

OK, so over at the Non-Brody site, I've been alluding of big things to come, and I can finally reveal. I decided to post it here, because really- it impacts Brody in the best way possible.

I am going to be a stay at home mom!!!! (at least for a little while!) Matt picked up a part time job (in which he will also be working from home), and it's going to allow me to take a few more months of time off and stay home with our little angel. I am taking a leave of absence, starting early-mid March, and will be home for at least 2 months, but quite possibly until October. I can't begin to tell you how excited Matt and I are that we are going to be able to do this for our baby. Even if it isn't a permanent thing- every day he is with us instead of in daycare is a marvelous thing. Don't get me wrong- I LOVE our daycare provider... and Brody loves it there. And I'm sure he will love it just as much when he's a year old after some wonderful bonding time with mom & dad. =)

WEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
