25 Random Things About Brady

1. He was born 9 days early and weighed more than Ashlyn who was born 6 days late.


2. He loved to be held in our arms and bounced on an exercise ball to be soothed to sleep...you couldn't just bounce up and down, it had to be on the ball.


3. He didn't start to crawl until about 11 months and walk until about 13 1/2 months.


4. It took him a while to talk...I guess he thought, "why do I have to speak when sissy will do it for me." I think he was a little over 2.


5. He didn't like ice cream when he was a baby...now he loves it.


6. He can throw a ball super far and super accurate.


7. He loves to play baakitbaa (basketball)...and he rarely misses the basket. Look out Michael Jordan.


8. Now he imitates what we say and what Sissy says...you can't keep him quiet (see #4).


9. Like Ashlyn, he is also great a puzzles...by himself, "Brady Do It!"


10. He was interested in the potty right at 2 years old and trained himself way before he turned 2 1/2.


11. We moved him to a big boy bed earlier than Ashlyn (2 years 3 months) just because we wanted to get rid of his baby furniture and get him a bunk bed...believe it or not, not a mistake...the transition was a piece of cake.


12. When we went to Disney World on his birthday, his favorite ride was the Winnie the Pooh ride...ever since then anything that has a character from Winnie the Pooh is called "Pooh ride"...even his crocs that have Winnie the Pooh and Eeyore on them.


13. He has always been a picky eater...we can barely get him to eat a veggie...do black beans count?


14. His favorite holiday, if you call it that, is Halloween. He likes to ring the door bell, even now, and say "trick-treat" with hope that he will get some candy.


15. He calls M&M's and Skittles Ning-a Ning's...don't ask us why.


16. Just like Ashlyn he has a little blankie and he too calls it Kiki.


17. He still sleeps with a taci (pacifier)...someday we will rid him of that...at least we can take it away, unlike a thumb.


18. He loves being outside...we think that he would live out there if he could.


19. He loves to dance...and man is he a great dancer. He has some serious dance moves with tons of rhythm.


20. He thinks that Sissy hangs the moon.


21. His favorite TV show is Bah Bah (Crashbox on HBO)...good thing it is a very educational show. He likes to watch it right before bedtime.


22. He loves to fall asleep to the music on his Baby Einstein Turtle Aquarium...it just recently broke so Daddy bought him a new one, but a different one. He played with it all night the first night...I'm glad the novelty wore off.

24. He loves our dog Lennox...calls him Lenny.


25. He loves slide-umm-umm's (slides)...even big water slides that he can ride down Mommy or Daddy.
