Five Months!

Brandt is 5 months old now. He is getting so BIG! He is starting to sit up on his own for a few seconds at a time and he is rolling all over the place to get where he wants. He are a few pictures from the last few days. It is summer time here now and getting hot!

Enjoying the sun at the park.


Looking good in his new hat.


I am BATMAN! Yipee!

Reason for Easter.

Happy Easter!!

We had a great Easter weekend. It was great getting to spend it with both of our families. Brandt really got into grabbing the eggs when I would point one out to him.


Look I found one!


I'll look low and you look high~together we'll find them all!


I love it when a plan comes together!

A Camping We Will Go!

We went on our first camping trip for this year! It was fun to introduce Brandt to one of our favorite things to do! Andy's 2 brothers and their families went too. We went on walks, had a good fire, and great food! Brandt did great and liked being outdoors so much, and of course playing with his cousins! Here are some pictures of our adventures!


Having a laugh with Mommy!


Taking a moment to ponder life.


Helping Daddy get things set up.


Our little family having a great time being together!

Month Four!

Our little boy keeps on growing! At his four month visit he was 15lbs 4 1/2oz (80th %) and length 26.4in long (98th %). He was a good sport until he got his shots...that wasn't so fun. He is now rolling over and is a little wiggle worm. He loves to look at people and things around him, he is very alert. We love our boy!


Cute tummy rolls!


Yeah! I'm excited to be 4 months old!


It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
Do you love the hat? I do!

Enough Said!

I know I'm his mom, but does it get any better than this?


Love the sun glasses!


Not too Cool for a Paci!

Snow!


Ready to go PLAY!

Last Sunday it snowed. We couldn't make it to church, so we went out and enjoyed the few inches we got with Brandt. He seemed to like looking around, but he really didn't like the wind. It only lasted until about 2 in the afternoon, but it was fun while it lasted.


I like it!

He kept trying to eat the snow flakes...notice the tongue.

Month Three!

Here are Brandt's 3 month pictures. I told him all day that we were going to get his picture taken and he needed to smile. I was worried he would be sleeping or not smiling. No need to worry, we had so many choices. He smiled like the cutie he is and we got some great shots.


We love this look on his face!


He loves to stick out his tongue!

This month he is laughing more spontaneously. He has also become very aware of his hands...he likes to look at them, grab toys with them, and pull out his passie and suck on them. He is also growing like a weed and already wearing 3-6 month clothes!

Having Fun!

We are having lots of adventures! Brandt likes to spend his days being entertained by mommy and daddy and we love it!

It's SUPER baby!!!!


It's a Giraffe at the zoo...be careful they drool!


Story time...he is so intent at looking at the pictures.


Going for a walk. It is becoming our Sunday tradition to go for a family walk.
