Baby Brody


Jayla and I met up with my brother, Adam, and his baby boy, Brody. He is not much of a baby anymore and more like a monster. We haven't got to spend much time with him since he was born, but then again neither does my brother. This was the first time he has seen him in 3 weeks, in which he got only 1 hour with him. My brother is going through a divorce. Brody's mom just chooses to keep him from seeing his dad. There are no court orders keeping him from my brother. The trial date is sometime in October, where my brother is going for joint custody.

Those of you who know Adam, knows how great of a dad he is. He has two older boys, 8 & 9, from a previous relationship. They are his world and there isn't anything he wouldn't do for them. I just can't quite get how someone could keep a child from seeing their dad. I understand that brake-ups are hard enough. I just don't feel like that is a justifiable reason to punish a child for it. Not only is Brody missing out on a wonderful relationship with his dad, he is also missing out on a relationship with his two older brothers. I know Brody loves spending time with his dad. He was such a happy little clam yesterday. Watching the two of the together is the cutest thing ever. You can just see the love pouring out of each others eyes. Even though Brody is only 10 months old, I know he knows Adam is daddy.


Adam and Brody
cousins
He loved the riding on the merry-go-round.


Jay was not a happy camper when I took her off the ride.
Almost walking.
He loves his daddy.
Brody shared his food with Jay.


~Thank you Adam for letting us spend sometime with your little man. He is so cute!!~

yeah, that's too bad. at least there's a light at the end of the tunnel (hearing in october) and then he'll be able to see him more, no matter what the bitch wants. that's pretty selfish and just harmful for brody. adam is so skinny! definitely on the "divorce diet" aka - stressed the hell out!

what a cute little man. funny, he looks sooooo different than the other two!

i am so happy that you got to spend a little time with your brother and brody! he is handsome and wow - never thought i saw a lot of adam in him, but in those pictures, i see daddy all the way!

it is unfortunate that jessica is not being a big enough person to allow adam to see his son - know to many parents that do this and it is really sad, because really in the long run, it is only hurting the kid. i teach way to many of those kids, and i see the effect that things like that have on them. hopefully october will go well for adam and he will be able to see brody more! he is one handsome fellow! glad jay got to see her cuz too!
