The Cutest Picture of All Time

"The Cutest Picture of All Time" - my husband's words, not mine. I'm creating this post at his relentless urging. I'll relate our conversation.

Husband (reading over my shoulder as I write a post): Have you posted the picture of Brady on his tractor yet?

Me: No, there's not really a story to go with it.

Husband: It doesn't need a story, it's the best picture ever. It's got Brady, a John Deere tractor and Carhartt overalls.

Me: And your point would be?

Husband: It's the cutest picture of all time. (Yes, that's a direct quote, my husband used the word cute.)

Me: Would you like to write the post?

Husband: No.

And then he walked away. Men, gotta love em. And without further adieu, the cutest picture of all time.


Houdini... Almost

Brady has become rather interested in helping to undress, and ocassionally dress, himself. This is what Brady looked like when I put him down for a nap the other day. Granted this picture was taken after his nap, but the dazed look was pretty much the same.




















This is what I found when I went to get him up. It's quite a look.















I don't have any idea how he did it, but he managed to get the front part of his shirt over/behind his head and the sleeves completely pushed up without actually getting his shirt off.

Here's a view of the back.















He was VERY proud of himself.














I had to take the shirt completely off and unroll it to get it back on. He then proceeded to spend the rest of the day trying to recreate his fashion statement, but he couldn't ever get the sleeves quite right again.

Duet

My friend and her daughter came over the other day. I think we have a couple of budding virtuosos on our hands.

Welcome Ethan

Congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law on their new little bundle of joy. Brady is excited about being a big cousin and showing Ethan the ropes. I'm excited about being an aunt to such a sweet little cutie.
