Brex @ 8 months (10-15-10)

October has turned out to be very busy for us and Brex will reach a new record of 8 flights in 1 month (thank goodness he flies free until 2 yrs old!).  That serves as my excuse for falling behind on the blog.  Here is the most recent photo of our little stud muffin on his 8 month birthday 10-15-10:

Up to no good

He put a lot of things in his mouth before...now that he is crawling, he's literally getting into everything...

A day at the park

Even though we don't have a back yard, Brex gets plenty of outdoor play time at the multiple parks within walking distance of our front door.

Trying to stand

Now that Brex has mastered crawling (very fast), he has moved on to bigger challenges and is trying to stand.  It is CRAZY to see how determined this little boy is...

Stacey Family Fun Run!

We (actually, I) decided it would be fun to start my 35th year off to a healthy start, while supporting a great charity. I found a 5K near our house that allowed strollers and registered the family for the race on a chilly Sunday morning. We finished in 31 minutes with support from the Hoj's and tons of strangers cheering for us along the 3.1 mile run.



























Jeff finished with the top 10 in about 12 minutes (he was a runner at ND).  He and Karen joined us for a 2nd lap to provide support and take photos!
















All money raised went to Gilda's Club: http://www.gildasclub.org/

The club's Mission is to create welcoming communities of free support for everyone living with cancer - along with their families and friends. An essential complement to medical care, providing networking and support groups, workshops, education and social activities.
The Gilda's Club philosophy of providing an emotional and social support community as an essential complement to medical treatment when cancer is in the family.
It is the vision of Gilda's Club Worldwide to become the international leader for strengthening the global awareness of this philosophy, and to advance an understanding of the essential bond that emotional and social support brings to the cancer experience, not only for those living with cancer, but also for the families and friends who surround them.

Sushi Mike!!!

The birthday celebration continued with a family dinner at Tanoshii.  Sushi Mike is a Master and it just keeps getting better and better every time we dine with him.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Brex started my birthday celebration with a cute Happy Birthday Mommy onesie...



Trying to stand...
 
He was also a big help when it came to opening presents and blowing out the candles on my pizza cake.
