Weekend with Grandpa and Nana

Daddy was away at a bachelor party so mommy and I went out to Front Royal and spent Saturday night with Grandpa and Nana! We had lots of fun:) I got to play with Rugger, go for a walk, watch the Hummingbirds and just relax! We also took advantage of the view from Grandpa and Nana's deck and took some pictures of me in my overalls!

9 months old!

Brandon had his 9 month check and the doctor says he is doing fantastic! He is 20lbs 8oz & 28.5 inches long- he is in the 50%:) He also had his little toe pricked to check his iron level- which didn't even phase him.... he was however very interested in getting the band aid off his toe. It actually ended up in his mouth on the way home- crazy boy.

As far as his milestones are concerned he is doing great! He can stand by himself for about 1 second, he walks if you hold his hands or behind a toy, he says mama and dadda. His top teeth are starting to come in- so that's a little painful! As far as food is concerned he is more interested in what we are eating than his own baby food- which I don't blame him.

4th of July

Happy Birthday America! Brandon sure had a fun filled 4th of July weekend- lots of firsts for this this little guy. First time for tasting hotdogs and watermelon and skinny dipping in the lake! (uh oh!!) Liam Henderson enjoyed pushing Brandon around in the walker- they had some real bonding time. Brandon didn't really have any good naps at the lake- but was in good spirits when we attempted one in the pack in play with his sweet mohawk! We had such a great weekend and spent lots of time with family:) Brandon is also really facinated with his cousin Jillian- we attempted a family picture at the lake and all he wanted to do was touch her sweet little face! Enjoy the pictures- he sure likes posing for the camera!
