He didn't care for the hat too much

Got to Love Birthday Cake!

Driving

Shana, Justin's sister gave Brantley this car that we brought out the other day, and ever since, Brantley will not stop playing with it! It loves it! He gets mad when I take him away from it. It is so cute cause he will get into it, sit there and steer the steering wheel making car noises! He is such a boy. Also, he has not figured out how to go forward but he can go backward. He even looks back when he is backing up! He is so smart. He also loves to drive my car! Daddy is so proud.

Playing in the water

It was so funny! I was washing my car and Brantley likes to help with this, so I always strip him down to his diaper and let him splash around in the water. Well, this time, he discovered the hose and thought that it was great fun! He was soaking wet!

Island Park

This past weekend we went up to Island Park with Steph, Mike and Benjamin. It was nice to get out of town and to a place that was a little cooler. Brantley did not do well there though and we later found out that the reason for that is because he has strep throat! The poor little guy. I felt so bad. But other then that, we had a blast. He loved riding the bikes (like always) and we put him on one of the horses in West and he loved that! The last picture was so funny that I had to put it on. He just loves his spaghetti!

Water skiing is so exhausting!

We went up to Pine View this past weekend and Brantley had so much fun! He loves to ride on the boat and even liked playing in the water a little bit. He was so exhausted that he fell asleep on the boat with is life jacket on and actually stayed asleep! It was so fun to get out and water ski again.

Walking Already?

Brantley is already starting to walk behind things and has been pulling himself up for about a month now. He is growing up so fast! I think that he will be walking on his own here in the next month. I just can't believe that he is getting so big. He is also learning how to feed himself. He is getting pretty good at it, but I still think that more is getting on him and the floor then in his mouth. It is such a mess! But he sure has fun.
