The Summer Olympics are going on, and Brandon is training for the 2028 games.
4 months
Today Brandon is four months old. When did my baby get so big? See for yourself: Lately he has been either really happy or really pissed off. I blame it on the teething. I can't get enough of his adorable little face. I could stare at it all day.
sleepless in omaha
Last night was my first sleepless night in a long time. Now don't get me wrong, I have been awake with this baby for certain periods every night. But for the last two months or so, he's spoiled me by eating and then falling back asleep. In 30 minutes, I'm back in bed. The days... Continue Reading →
big ups
I think the next milestone for Brandon is sitting up. So I'm propping him up all over the place. I'm an overachiever by nature, so I want my baby to be more advanced than other kids his age. I saw a two-month old in the Bumbo at daycare and I said, "are you putting Brandon... Continue Reading →
sick psych, baths, bumbo
This week marked a rite of passage for this new mom - taking my son to the doctor when nothing was wrong. The daycare ladies freaked me out by saying he wasn't himself lately, and he had been eating less and sleeping more. Last week he had a cough. I felt kind of ridiculous, explaining...

Mr. Independent
Hope you all had a Happy 4th of July. July 4th marked 3 months from Brandon's birthday. We weighed and measured him for his baby book. 16.2 lbs, 26 inches. It's hard to believe he used to be half this weight. I've struggled with him being in daycare a little. He has a cough now,... Continue Reading →
daycare day
Brandon and I right before heading to daycare. I wasn't as much of a mess as I thought. I mean, of course I teared up. The daycare ladies were prepared with a "first day survival kit," containing, most importantly, kleenex. My tears had dried by the time I made it to work. I brought in a... Continue Reading →
flip flops, dimple, new cousin
Summer is here! Well, it's been here for quite awhile now, really since before Brandon was born. He has a lot of summer clothes, but I really don't understand why they even make shorts and flip flops for babies because they're always cold and bundled up. Probably just because they're cute. I put Brandon in... Continue Reading →
fun with baby
Being a mom isn't just a drag like some parents make it out to be. I've had some fun with this kid - watching him grow and learn has been my entertainment - it has to be: daytime TV sucks. Here are some of my favorite things so far:1. Brandon is the dirtiest between his... Continue Reading →
ten weeks
Can you believe how much he's changed in ten weeks? It's hard to believe how quickly he's grown. (I didn't pose either of these pictures - he just likes putting his fist on his chin)My baby is a little man. More about that tomorrow. Steve and I just got season 4 of Breaking Bad and...
