Saturday afternoon, while I cooked dinner, Brent helped Brody paint these little ceramic mugs for mine and Brent's dad for Father's Day. They were so cute working together. I could have sat there and watched them do that all day. I can tell they are going to be best friends one day :) I can't wait to see Brent with both of his boys here pretty soon.
Brent painted "PawPaw" and "Poppy" on the mugs and then let Brody go to town on them.
They were blowing the names dry, so that Brody wouldn't smear them while he was painting.
The finished products!!!! I promise you, they will be treasured forever :)
I wish I had one of my own...

He also LOVES helping out in the kitchen. Don't all kids? Well, until they get to the point where we actually need their help in the kitchen...then they want nothing to do with it, right? Anyway, Brody helped me mix up some frozen orange juice this morning before we got ready for church. (You can tell he hadn't been up long in these pics.)
I try to treasure these moments with him . . . I know it won't be long before he wants nothing to do with it . . .
We had Brent's parents and my Dad and stepmom over for Father's Day dinner tonight. Brent grilled the most delicious BBQ ribs and sausage, and I cooked baked beans and fries. It was very yummy. While we were grilling and preparing the food, Brody played outside in the 98 degree heat with his sandbox from Ryan and Tara. He was so cute with just his shorts on. I could kiss on his squishiness all day long!!!
I sprayed him down good with sunscreen before he went out to play, so you can imagine the sticky, sandy mess that he was when he came back in - we headed straight for the tub!
Happy Fathers Day to all to all you dads out there! Especially to my own WONDERFUL dad and to Brent! I love you both VERY much! Thank you so much for everything that you both do for me and Brody!!
