Mommy's Little Helper

Brennan has become a big help around the house. In addition to trying feed himself and brush his own hair, he has started doing some chores. Today he swept the entire kitchen floor all by himself!

Chow Time!

Anyone who has been around when Brennan is eating knows the boy enjoys his food. For several months he has enjoyed finger feeding himself all sorts of yummy tastes. Recently we started "practicing" eating with utensils...the results have been humorous - and messy!

Everybody loves Brennan

Brennan received several sweet Valentine's Day gifts, but perhaps his favorite came in the form of a card from Aunt Jess.

Weekend Fun

Brennan and Company had a fun filled February weekend in the snowy city. After a relaxing day at home with Daddy, we all went to Auntie April's and Uncle Vince's for Mardi Gras. Brennan couldn't get enough of Mommy's vegetarian jambalaya with hot sauce - but he wasn't allowed any Hurricanes! Sunday found us taking a walk and checking out the snow. B wasn't a huge fan but did seem to enjoy the fresh air. On Monday we visited one of our favorite winter haunts, the Garfield Park Conservatory, where Brennan was able to crawl around in the kids section, explore all sorts of fun plants and watch the big fish swim around. If only all weekends could be so lovely!

The Caterpillar Dance

Like his mother, Brennan enjoys a little dance every now and then

Over the Hills and Through the Woods

Brennan spent his first Thanksgiving down in Mississippi with his Grandmamma D and Daddy Pat. He had lots of fun entertaining his great-grand parents, playing with his cousins, even opening his first Christmas presents. The week finished off watching his first Egg Bowl (MS State vs. Ole Miss), and of course, State won!!!

Splash!

At some day care centers and pre-schools, they have an expensive device called a Sand and Water table. These tables help with the development of fine and gross motor skills.


We here in the Dorvacs Household have a slightly, shall we say, less sophisticated version...
