Grays Anatomy

This past weekend we went swimming at my parents house and cooked out. The big pool water is still too cold for Brycen so we bought him his own little pool and he loved it. By the way...he loves his bath now too. He loves it so much he kicks a lot of the water out! Glad that he enjoys the water b/c his mommy loves it.

My trunks and hat are still a little too big!

Mommy stripped me down to my diaper b/c my trunks kept falling down

Cooper and Tucker decided to get in on the fun!

Cheeeeeese!!!

Here are some recent pictures of Brycens many faces he likes to make.

2 Month check-up

Brycen went for his 2 week check-up last week and did a lot better than I thought he would. I think mommy cried more than Brycen did! :) He had to get 5 shots and 1 oral vaccination!!! Here are his stats at 2 months old:

9lbs 8oz
21 3/4 inches long

So that put him in the 20th% for his weight and 45% for his height. He doesn't go back for his well visit until he is 4 months old and so we'll see how much he grows in 2 months.

Mothers Day

My first Mothers Day was wonderful! Josh got Brycen up and they came and layed in bed and brought me my presents. I got a beautiful sterling silver picture frame that was engraved "My first Mothers Day" and had the date underneath it. Josh took a picture of Brycen and I before we went to church to put in the frame. I also got a digital picture frame so I can put all the pictues I take of my little man on it. We went to church and this was Brycen's first time at church. We spent the day with both our families and I was cooked for by both of them. It was a nice and relaxing day.

Master who?

Make me say uhhhhh, uhhhh na na na na...sorry, was singing Master P! So my brother, Rick graduated with his Masters degree last week and we are so proud of him. Congratulations Rick!!! You have come a long way and have accomplished more than I would have ever thought you would. I am so honored to be your sister and know that something good did come out of our family...LOL!!! Way to go and bust your butt. I wish we could have come out with the rest of the family, but we were cheering you on all the way from SC! I love you Rick and am sooooo proud of you!!! :)

A lot of catching up...

Ok, so I admit that I am not the most "on top of things" person there is...but while he is sleeping I will try and update you on some things going on in our lives. Brycen turned 6 weeks on Friday and oh boy did he present some new attitudes to us. Some fun and cute ones that include talking a little more and smiling at us more and then the not so fun ones. The not so fun ones include him screaming when its time to go down for a nap. I think we figured out that it must be a growth spurt issue. He goes for his 8 week shots and check up next Friday and I am not looking forward to that b/c I know its going to break my heart to hear him cry out of pain.

Brycen loves...
being on his tummy
being held and sung to
having books read to him
his mobile in his crib
his carseat and the car

He hates...
being cold
going down for naps (right now anyway)
having his diaper changed when its time to eat
his baths (although he seems to be liking them more now)

Brycen rolled from his tummy to his back when he was 3 1/2 weeks old. He hasn't quite got that hang of going from his back to his tummy, but is almost there. The only problem is he rolls over so fast he scares himself. :) Here are some pics from the past few weeks. He is such a joy and blessing and I can't believe I am going back to work in only 2 weeks. :( Enjoy the pics...
