2 Months Old!

So the boy went to the doctor for his first round of vaccines. We decided Daddy should take him, lol. Daddy said Brendan's face turned bright red and he screamed at the top of his lungs but after holding him, he was fine again. Brendan now weighs 9 lbs, 15 ozs. and is 22 and 1/4 inches long. This puts him in the 11th percentile for weight and 20th percentile for height. He's fitting lengthwise into his 3 month outfits but they're a little big around his little waist.

Today we took him to get his 2 month old pictures. We actually ended up spending more this time but got like 4 times the pictures. So here are a few of the 74 poses we took. We got some family photos this time.







I added this last picture because I want you all to feel sorry for us. That lip is going to be the kiss of death for us if he doesn't lose it before learning how to talk. That lip is Brendan's ticket to get whatever he wants.

Back to work

So I had to go back to work on Wednesday the 6th. :-( Lol. It hasn't been too bad. I've been a little tired though. Grandma and Brent have been taking care of Brendan. The first day when I got home he was ready to eat and usually while I'm feeding him he'll kind of look up at me. That day he stared straight ahead the entire time. I think maybe he was mad that I left... but he forgave me before the next time he ate. So here are some pics of his adorableness.






1. This is a pic of Brendan in the same outfit that we brought him home from the hospital in. He fits in it a lot better now!

2. Jordan (the cat) was babysitting Brendan on our bed, lol. So cute!

3. This is from my first day back to work.

4. Notice his new onesie we bought... it's Dopey and it says "Bald is Beautiful". It's okay cause his Daddy was bald until he was 2 years old!

5. Grandma and Brendan making faces at each other. We're not sure why Brent was making a face in the background.

6. Brendan in his "Little Bean" onesie and hat. I bought it for Brent for Father's Day (along with some other non-baby related gifts). www.gagagoods.com is where I found it... in case anyone was interested.

7. This is the first of the outfits that Nana gave us that Brent wore when he was a baby. Isn't this one adorable?

8. The second Daddy outfit. The straps are a little big but still so cute.

9. Brendan having tummy time on Daddy and showing off his muscles.

10. Isn't that the cutest face ever?!

11. The third Daddy outfit. Can you tell this one was from the eighties? Lol. He's definitely our #1 son!

12. And to finish... Brendan was spitting out his pacifier and Brent caught it on film in mid-spitout, lol.

Clarification

This blog is to clarify the post my wife last made. The title is relevent because the full title should have been "I am the walrus. Coo Coo Cachu". It is relevent because our son has started cooing and being really cute. If you really wanted to tie it in he makes the cachu noise when he sneezes.....That is all. :)

I am the walrus

Lol, we couldn't think of a relevant title so we decided that a Beatles tribute was fitting.



Our prince continues to do wonderful adorable things. This first video is Brendan's reaction to his Daddy's kisses.




This video shows Brendan "crawling" to the top of his crib:


And now some more adorable pics:

One Month

Can you believe Brendan is already one month old? As every good first time mommy should, I took him to Babies R Us to have his one month old pictures taken. They turned out great but next time we will be taking pictures at Walmart because they were not cheap! Here are the pics:


Aren't they adorable?! I love them. I was so proud of him for being so good. And those are my hands in the last picture. I think that's my favorite.

Oh, we took Brendan to the doctor this week cause he has a birthmark on his bottom that started bleeding. Not a big deal but now we have to put vaseline on it every time we change his diaper. They weighed him while we were there and he is now 7 lbs, 15 ozs which puts him in the 11th percentile. So I think we'll be out of the newborn diapers soon. We've learned that Huggies newborn and Pampers newborn are two different sizes, lol (Huggies are bigger). We love Pampers!

We've noticed this past week that Brendan has new cries. He definitely has one for when he's mad. He also has a cute "pay attention to me" cry. I've also discovered that one of my favorite things is holding him on my shoulder because I can feel his breath on my cheek. Baby's breath is one of the sweetest things in the whole world.

That's it for now!

More pictures!























So here are some more great photos of the adorable new Bean. I even managed to upload a video! We ended up not going to the parade yesterday. I woke up feeling bad but I'm doing much better now. We went over to my parents house and watched fireworks on TV and outside. Other than that we don't have any exciting news right now. Enjoy the pictures!
