We've had a busy summer and haven't posted much lately, but it is time to update the blog!  Here are some happenings from the past month.

The Fourth of July was on a Wednesday this year, sort of a bummer to have one day off in the middle of the week versus a long weekend, but glad to have a day off anyway!  It was about 100 degrees and Brody had a great time floating in the lake at Roger and Anne's!
 We are taking Brody to speech therapy twice a week to help him transition from baby food to solids.  He gags and throws up often while eating solids. The therapist recommended letting him get dirty, so here we are...
Grandpa Kenny and his Brody Boy.


Everything goes in the mouth right now, including rocks.  Nummy.


He's just getting so big.  He's pulling himself up and walking along furniture.  He'll let go for a couple of seconds before grabbing on again.  It won't be long for his first steps!

He was sick for a week with a virus and was in the hospital from a Thursday through a Tuesday.  He had a high fever, wasn't eating, cough, and was laying around (not himself).  His oxygen saturations were in the high 80s to low 90s, so he was sent home on oxygen again for a while.  We have a follow up with his pediatrician on Tuesday and a visit to the lung specialist in Minneapolis at the end of August. 

Mom caught what Brody had and is laid up also.  It is a pretty bad virus with an extreme sore throat I wouldn't wish on anybody.
