One month later...

Brody celebrated his 1 mo. mark last Sunday, and I can't believe how fast it has gone by!!! He is growing up so much already, I can hardly believe it. When I look at pictures of him the day he was born, he looks so small. He is finally starting to fill out a bit, and I've put the first pile of baby clothes that don't fit back in storage for any future babies.


Mom caught both me and Kevin snoozing with Brody (at different times) while at their house for dinner one Sunday - catching up on much needed sleep!!

Kristi and Shauna Leavitt put on a baby shower for me in Lethbridge! Thanks for the baby monitor Shauna!!!

Lynnae Wright and Karen Gilroy at Brody's shower


Mom took an evening off to show me how to can tomato sauce!!! My favorite! Thank you mom! Look at all those jars!


(sorry on the fuzzy picture)
Brody and I went to visit Aunt Ruth and Aunt Mary in Taber! Ruth was so excited to tell me that Brody was born on her father (my great grandfather's) birthday! It was nice visiting with Mary too! She was so kind to give me a cooler full of frozen Taber corn that she slaved over this summer. Mmmm. Nothing beats Taber corn!


Brody was excited to go to his first football game last weekend too! It was Raymond vs. LCI at the new football field! Brody even wore the nice 'football' hat that Grandma Bennett gave him! Of coarse, Brody cheered for LCI with me, while Kevin cheered for Raymond. 'Uncle' Wes is helping to coach LCI's team this year, so we were sad for him when LCI lost. We'll get them next time I hope!


Cousin Zac and Brody finally met last Sunday in Calgary at Zac's baby blessing!!!! We're sure they will be best buds growing up!! Everyone had a good laugh at the fact that they both look so much like their dad's and not much like each other! Oh well... I guess the Bennett genes must be recessive.


Four generations for both families!!!

Proud Moms!


Four generations with the women this time!

Got to love Grandma Smith's broken arm! She was supposed to go on a big European cruise next week, and now they have to wait to see if the last minute x-ray turns up good. Poor Grandma doesn't have much luck when it comes to big vacations. We are all glad that nothing more serious happened!
