2 Months!

Hi everyone! Brandon here. I have been 2 months old for over a week now! We've been very busy and haven't had time to finish this blog posting since then.
I am such a big boy! At my 2 month check up last week we found out I am 11 lbs 6 oz (50th%) and 24.25 inches long (75th%)!
Here's what I've been up to in the last few weeks...

I practice my smiles a lot! I smile without even being smiled at now, which just delights my mom and dad!

I love to be sung to! It almost always makes me smile. You should hear my parents sing, though. Sometimes I'm smiling at them and not with them...

Here I am (sleeping) in St. Joseph, MO with mommy's friend from High School Megan and her son William. Megan and William live just 2.5 hours from us in Nebraska, so we met up half way between for lunch and shopping. I don't remember much from that day as I stayed in this position for most of it.

Another smile! It is pretty hard to capture on camera as the camera flash makes me look confused... or angry. Don't I look like a tough guy?

My Mimi and Papa came to visit! This was the 2nd time I've seen my Mimi but the first time I met my Papa. Here we are by one of the many fountains at Country Club Plaza in KC.

This is the first time my Papa held me.
I think this is my Mimi and Papa's favorite fountain because the statue is holding grapes. They said something about the goddess of wine...

We took a few walks in my neighborhood while Mimi and Papa were here. I love going for walks in my stroller! The bumpier the ride, the better!



Another fountain in Country Club Plaza.


This is at the Frontier Trails Museum in Independence, MO. We learned about Lewis and Clark as well as the Oregon and Santa Fe trails.

This is at the dinner table. Maybe it was the garlic bread...

Happy on the deck with Mimi! Here's my fist! I love to wave it around, look at it, and suck on it!

I love bath time! Actually, I love anytime I can be naked. Getting my diaper changed is a highlight of my day. I always start smiling when the clothes come off. This makes my parents worried about the future for some reason.

I have so many expressions!
This is one of my favorite things to do! I hold on to someone's fingers and pull myself up to stand!


Looking pensive in my bouncer. Mommy and Daddy don't know what they would do without my bouncer. I get to sit in it at dinnertime and they bounce me with their feet while they eat! I stay happy most of the time...

See you again soon!

  1. 2 months sure went by fast! I love his smile! And those are such great family pictures you got while your parents were in town!

  2. It sounds like Molly and Brandon have lots of similarities. She also LOVES being naked. Most of the smiles we see occur on the changing table, which is probably why we've never caught one in a picture. And she loves to "stand up" as well. Brandon's so cute with all of his smiles!
