My boy Brady turns four today! He’s quite excited about the cupcakes and ice cream portion, but not so excited that he still has to wait a year to play T-ball. Rough life.

Being the middle of three boys (so far), Brady has nicely carved his own niche in our family. He’s the dare-devil, the Evil Canevil, the march to the beat of his own (off-beat) drummer. He’s spunky, crazy and so much fun. We love you, Brady Boy!

Here’s Brady playing in the backyard over the summer.
He’s so proud of the dirt on his hands!

(And yes, he picked out his own clothes here.)

Last week, the author of one of the blogs I read(see Jan 22, 2008) interviewed her three-year-old triplets and they had very amusing answers. I often ask the boys similar questions on their birthdays, so I stole borrowed her questions and cornered Brady . . . then just for fun, I asked Andy, too. Hope you enjoy their wit!
