The many faces of Brody.

Brody does not like tight pants. Lesson learned...this fashion style is not for his legs. Like a trooper though, he wore them for family pictures anyway. His face is bright red because he overheats quickly.

Loves doing fun things with Claire.

Loves a good party! With presents! Even if they aren't presents for him. (Notice Mav's hand on his shoulder.)

Loves snacks AND birthday cake! Did I mention he likes to do what Claire is doing, too?

One day he decided to help wash dishes and has wanted to ever since. He got the chair out and just did it all himself, washing them with the soap and sponge and then putting them all in the sink drainer. There are days he's very good about taking care of himself, including throwing dirty clothes in the hamper, getting dressed for the day and for bed, etc. Then there are other days, of course:)

Loves fixing hair, but rarely asks me. He'll ask all sorts of people if he can fix their hair, just not me.

He loves tractors (partial to red), he loves the farm, and he loves helping Papa and Sean with all farm chores.

He loves a good project (indoors, outside, or in the garage). He loves to be a part of helping.

He always, always says, "I have a great idea". Some ideas don't quite pan out, but you can't blame him for trying to trouble shoot.

Occasionally he'll look into my camera when he smiles...only occasionally.

He loves playgrounds. He asks daily to go to the one across the street from our house and one of the highlights of his preschool days is the playground visit.

He loves to build. Sometimes he needs a little nudge, so I just get out the bin of Duplos and he takes it from there. Here's his garage and house. In that house is a Duplo toilet, no lie.

Showing off our work of art so that Daddy can see it before Maverick destroys it.

He's taught me that we don't have too many Duplos because he can use them all in three quick projects.

He loves big things that move. We went to the open house at the Lonsdale Fire Station and he loved climbing onto everything, including this ambulance. When he went back with his Daddy, he showed him where the bandaids were and everything.

What three year old doesn't like firetrucks?

All things Brody:)
