7 Months OLD!

BRODY 7 Months old!

(as of Nov.20th, I was a little late posting his 6 month)

Brody is now 7 Months old. Me and Billy could not be any more in LOVE with this Boy! We absolutely love spending time with him. He's now at this stage where he coos and talks and screams... and giggles and smiles all the time! He's such a joy to be around!
I had so much fun taking all these pictures! Someday I would love to be photographer... so it's been so fun practicing on this little guy. I'm definitely a beginner and have a lot to learn. But I have lots of fun ideas I just need people and kids to practice on. So anyone and everyone let me know if you want a free photoshoot! I will take as many pictures as you want and edit them all too! I just need the practice!
Lots has been going on in the Quale house. We've been working on our house like crazy and it's really starting to come together! I got a part time job at Old Navy for the Holidays. And other then that just getting ready for all the fun Holidays coming up! This really is the best time of the year!

I always get a lot of emails and comments about where I got Brody's outfits. So I will just post it here...It's pretty sad that I'm such a shopaholic I am doing this! But if anyone needed to know

6 Months old!

Dear Brody,

oh man I can't believe you are 6 months old! It feels like just yesterday I was pregnant and wondering what you would look like and be like! You are everything I imagined and so much more! You are so fun and silly and have the cutest giggle in the whole entire world! At your 6 month appointment you were 92% for height and 59% for weight! You are gonna be so tall and big...and you eat so so so so much! We can't eat a meal with out you wanting a bite of our food. You are too cute! We love every second that you are awake and hanging out with us! You made Halloween so much fun this year! And we are excited to experience Christmas with you! Sorry about all those tiny little teeth that have been growing in like crazy and buggin you...But you've been so good! We love you and think you are the cutest baby in the whole world! Happy 6 month Birthday!!!

xo xo xo

Mom & Dad

He is so fun and loves to play with us

He likes kisses...he always smiles after we kiss him

I have to do crazy things and make weird noises to get him to look at the camera so I have so many shots of his eyes looking like this! He is thinking " what are you doing MOm!!!"

Went to Stone Mountain with some friends and had a lot of fun!

We had such a fun Halloween! Kids make everything even more fun that it was before!



Check out those little teeth : )

Happy Fall Everyone!!!

So much to blog about....so little time!!!

My baby is getting bigger and bigger each day! I know everybody says it...but serioulsy IT GOES BY SOOO FAST! We moved into our new house, went to Utah for 10 days and have been sick with a cold! So it's been a little hectic around here! So here is a quick post! I have lots of pictures to post from Utah!!! Coming soon.....

Used a sippy cup for the first time in Utah and LOVED it!

I think he loved all the attention from all his kid cousins especially Graycee!

You can see the drool running down his face... Luckily his drooling is rare and minimal. We will see if it changes!

Brody 5 months!!! Lots of Rain, Moving, unpacking and a leaky roof!

We have been busy lately!!! So lots to blog about!! Brody turned 5 months old on the 2oth!! I just ca't believe it's been 5 months already! Let me tell you about my cute Brody boy at 5 months old! First off I wish I had a smiley picture because I feel like that is all he does now... he just smiles his toothy grin at me all day long and it makes my day! He also has the cutest giggle in the whole world! And when he giggles it's usually at the puppy! He sits up like a champ now! He rolls over both ways now...And he loves to stand up holding on to the couches! He only takes 2 naps a day. But he sleeps 12 hours at night! I cannot complain about that!

He loves loves LOVES eating baby food! Bananas are his favorite and green beans are his least favorite. He is wearing 6-12 month clothes and the shopping just get's more fun as they get older because there is even cuter stuff out there! Old Navy and Gap are still my 2 favorites for baby boy clothes! He watches Dora the explorer every morning while I shower and gets all excited and smiles when I put him in front of it! He loves going for walks in his stroller. Lately I've been taking him on 2-3 walks a day because it entertains him and gets us out of the house. We just love our little Buddy! I love watching Billy with Brody, he is the best daddy ever. He adores him and loves every second that he gets to be home with him. When I was pregnant I always thought I'd have to ask or even plead for Billy to watch him but the second he comes home he takes him and I'm lucky that I'm the one that has to feed him (nursing) otherwise I wouldn't get him back! : ) I also thought that when I had a baby I'd always be looking for a babysitter or hoping to get a break but we actually love taking him everywhere with us... it wouldn't be as fun without him!
So thank you thank you Brody for being such a cutie Boy...and for making our life so fun and exciting! We love you so so much! : )



Here are a few pics:

Preview of the Halloween Costume! I know people will ask me, so I got it at Babies R Us.. they had tons of cute costumes there and at Old Navy! They are around $20.00

This is him asleep at church, Billy and Brody had matching shirts it was too cute! I need to find a baby tie that would be adorable!

This is Brody asleep in our bed! Sometimes I'll feed him in bed and let him nap there! He looks so grown up sleeping in a normal size bed ( his hand looks huge in that picture! ha ha )

This is him one morning when he just woke up I set him in my bed... you can still see his little sleepy face...Gotta love the Halloween outfit! He was growing so fast I figured I better put him in it now or it might not fit him!





The Before and after of the back half of our kitchen

Still need to paint the door, put vent covers on and replace that old light with a cute chandelier and get cute drapes!

While we were moving all of our stuff in last weekend it was pouring and I mean POURING!!! It does not rain like this in Utah! I was not used to it that's for sure! Craziness!!! Anyways... it was a project getting all our stuff moved in while it was pouring. But we did it! Thank you so much Bill and Uncle Chris for helping us!! Well then the rain caused flooding and roof damage all over the city! Luckily we ONLY had roof damage! But it did cause a leak in our roof... so we are not so thrilled about it! But we are working on getting it fixed!!

Check out this picture of Atlanta! Billy works 5 minutes away from our house and it took him 2 hours to get home because of all the flooding and streets closed!

Georgia Aquarium! SO cool : )

The Georgia Aquarium is so cool! I think it's the largest in the United states although Billy says it's the Largest in the world! So either way it's huge! So much cool stuff to see! We even did the 4D show with Brody.... we got sprayed with water, bubbles and air and he didn't mind at all, I swear he is such a chill easy going baby. Ever since we started renovating our house we haven't really spent anytime together as a family, so it was really fun to go out and just have fun on a Saturday! So lots of fun pictures to see!

Brody seemed so intrigued by everything!

So this is a random picture... but I wanted to show how cute the new miley cyrus line is. Believe it or not it's sold at Walmart. I bought this shirt in 3 colors I loved it so much! Thanks Miley : )

Brody 4 months old!

Brody had his 4 Month appointment...

He was 27.5 inches tall 98th percentile

and 16.5 pounds 80th percentile

And he also grew 2 teeth! I wasn't even anticipating teeth yet... hadn't even crossed my mind! Then all of a sudden I saw a white thing sticking out, looked like white rice! so cute!

All dressed up for church! He's getting so big and seems so old to me now!

He was being tickled in the picture! I love his smile! : )

Here are some cute pictures of Brody and cute cousin Gantt!

This is Brody trying his first baby food! Green beans : )

Some of our MANY before and afters, more to come....

Many friends and family have been asking for before and afters, so here are a few. But we still have a ways to go! And lots more pictures to come! But last week we took off all the wallpaper and painted the walls, trim and windows in the kitchen. We finally got most the cabinet doors put back on. I think it's insane how different paint can make your kitchen or any room look! It totally updated this kitchen! We still haven't moved in yet. Billy is installing the stainless steel appliances and granite countertops this weekend. So I will post more pictures! But we are having a lot of fun doing it! Billy has been working so hard on the house. He works all day and then goes straight to the house and gets home around 11:00 Pm. So we miss him lots!! But we know it will all be worth it! Me and Brody come by when we know it won't be too dusty or noisy! And Grandma Noni babysits our little Brody for us whenever she can after work so I can help fix up the house too! So It's coming along!

Kitchen cabinets before!

After

we still have to install the countertops, backsplash, light fixtures, appliances, and hardwood floors.

After

Let me know what you think! Any ideas or suggestions would be great!

Fun Black and whites!

My favorite baby things!

So I know I've said it before but this carrier is awesome!!! I wanted a bjorn but I wasn't going to pay 100$ for one... So I just went to target and got this and it's perfect! He loves it and we love it because we can get so much more stuff done... I couldn't believe he fell asleep like this ha ha : )

A bumbo is also the best thing ever because they can sit up in it when they can't really even sit yet. But they can look around and get a whole new view of things! Plus I can put him on the kitchen counter when I cook or do stuff!

I just thought these pictures were cute! Brody looks like he is reading in this pictures...: )

We are still renovating our house... We had to remove wallpaper and it seriously was the worst thing ever.... There has been a lot of tedious hard work at the house but this was by far THE WORST!! And we started at 7:30 PM and we finally finished at 1:30 AM! And that was just the kitchen! I still have 3 other bathrooms to do! YUCK! The funny part is my Grandma does wallpaper for a living... which now I do not know how she does it!!! IT's so hard and boring and awful! But I'm so proud of her for being such a hard worker!
