Daddy's Helper

Brett has been loving getting outside and playing. He also likes to mimic what I am doing and "help" daddy out. After a storm I like to pick up the branches in the yard and Brett is always right behind me picking up the "Brett-sized" sticks and giving them to me to put in a pile. What a great helper! When I get out the tools is when he gets really excited, like in the video.

A Brett story I have to share.....recently Kristin and him got a balloon at the grocery store and brought it home. Well, I took it outside with him to show him the magic of helium. The look on his face was hilarious. He just had this puzzled look and kept pointing to the sky. I guess the first time you let go of something and it goes up would both scare and amaze me too!

He's added some new words like dog, ant, and dirt, and now he has been nodding his head when we ask him if he wants to do something. When they were at the library today, Kristin asked him if he was ready to leave and he did the nod and went to the door. Such a big boy !
