Those pads are shrinking!

Just over three months old and already growing like a weed! This weekend, Brandon laughed out loud for the first time and since it was for Dad, and then later on for Jax, I have been trying like crazy to coax out a few giggles myself. I get lots of smiles and dimples, but I haven't been able to get the big laugh out of him. Give it time. I will continue to make funny faces, and sounds, and dance with my little wonder, and eventually I know he will give up the big laugh for mom.

Without a care in the world...

How can you not smile when you look at this picture??? Ken snapped this one enjoying a happy moment with his boy :] Smiles are an amazing reward from your toothless wonder, er child!

3 months young

OMG - he is just so damn cute!!! I am such a biased parent....

Sunday Football

3 months is already creeping up in a matter of days. in a word, wow. I couldn't imagine life any different although I did recently realize that we won't really be dining out at any pubs any time in the next while, or not an option when we travel as a family (I happen to be fond of pub meals, or at least in my old life i was lol)! I wonder too what our restaurant experiences are going to be like in the future as well!!! Not better or worse, just a whole new set of experiences to look forward too.

A trip outside...

We were out visiting my coz today and Brandon was great. Not really fussy, and cuddled in for a nap. These moments are breathtaking - when you can rest your chin on your child's head while they sleep on your chest and you take a moment to soak it all in....

3 month old outfits

We could call him "stretch" but this is how a 3 month old outfit fits. Needless to say, trying on clothes was an interesting experience as I realized we really need to keep an eye on the early clothes because he is truly growing like a weed!!!

A classic foot shot!

At first, I was going to include an "after bath" photo with the towel artfully placed, and what I really wanted to do was post a classic foot shot of Brandon's feet. Need I say more?

We are battling through our first cold, and it has made the rounds of our house. We have been out for some big walks to get some fresh air, especially since the rains are said to actually come soon. The weather has been fabulous and Brandon seems to enjoy being in the stroller, looking out and taking it all in. He also has all the cashiers charmed at the local grocery store!

Looking up!

Well, I am now able to hold my head up during tummy time!! I am also able to hold smaller objects, and my hands are opening up a lot more. Brandon is getting more curious about his surroundings, and we alternate between days where it seems like we have a handle on the eat, play, and sleep routine and days where all he wants to do is catnap and not get lots of rest in between everything else.
