Update on Brandon
Brandon has been up to so much! We went to the doctor on December 31st. He weighed 13.8 lbs (10th percentile), he was 26 in long (75th percentile), and his head was 15 3/4 around (10th percentile). The doctor asked if he was eating and I told him a lot and he said that he wasn't worried about Brandon being in the 10th percentile. He is in some 3-6 months but mostly 6 months. The 6 month clothes fit him just right in the length but they are so big around his waist. He needs a belt! He is in size 2 diapers. He went from pooping once every 8 days to twice a day. He loves to talk and smile. He does the "th" sound alot now when he is talking to me. He laughs a lot more now. He plays with his own toys and loves to feel the textures, hear the noises and put them in his mouth. He puts everything he can in his mouth! If he could he would be sitting up right now. He just needs a little support. Just recently he started taking all of his naps. The crying it out paid off. It is nice and he sleeps usually 2 to 2 1/2 hours. He is a lot happier since Ben and I are on the same page and makes me laugh and smile all the time. Brandon had his first Christmas and got lots of toys. He had his first New years which he slept through. I know that will be different when he is older. I'm sorry that some of the pictures are sideways. We went to Ben's grandma's 98th birthday party.
We went to the parade of lights. It was so cold. In the picture from left to right is me, Ben, Brandon, steph (Ben's sis), Jason (steph's husband), and Cheryl (Ben's mom).
Denver
Brandon, Ben, Ben's mom, step-dad, and I all went to Denver. It was so awesome to get away for a weekend. We did so much stuff. Brandon rode on his first airplane. We went to the aquarium, tours for Hammond's candies, Coors brewery, the Denver mint, a Denver broncos game and we drove around downtown to take pictures. It was jam packed but so much fun!
We went to the Coors brewery. We were able to learn about how they make beer and even sample some. It was pretty awesome. Brandon slept most of the time. It was an hour wait to get on the bus and then we went through the tour. Brandon slept the whole time we were waiting for the bus and then 90% of the tour. He woke up happy! In the picture is Brandon, Ben's mom, and me.
That same day we went to Hammond's candies. They took us on a tour of how they make candy. They still hand make it. I bought some candies called Mitchell's candy and they are marshmellow covered in carmel. Man are they good!
We went to the bronco game. We were 5 rows from the field. It was so awesome! I know they lost but it was so cool to be in the action and see all the fans. It was awesome cause Brandon and I were able to stand just over the field. There were para gliders and Brandon and I got to hit thier hands as they walked by. It was so cool to see Brandon wondering what was going on. He is getting more and more attentive!
