Great Wolf Lodge & Valentines Day






Last weekend (Feb.11-13) Brandon went on his very first vacation to the Great Wolf Lodge in Williamsburg, VA. It was an indoor waterpark and we all had a lot of fun! We went with Grandma, Papa, Uncle Derek, Auntie Becca, Uncle Jarred and cousin Brooke. Since Brandon was too little to enjoy most of park- we were able to bring him around on a float around the lazy river. He enjoyed that for the most part except when a bucket of water was splashed onto his head- we think he was just scared! However, the sound of the water was very soothing and he was really relaxed while in the waterpark. We will go again soon when he is bigger so he can enjoy more of it.

He also had his 4 month check up and is doing great! 16lbs and 25.5 inches long- he is a growing boy! And introducing some real food soon- he has really enjoyed oatmeal recently and we'll introduce veggies and fruits soon!

Likes to stand & Eat rice cereal


















So we have introduced cereal to Brandon and he loves it! Last night Nana fed it to him and he ate all of it:) Also last week we went to Jocelyn's baby shower- she is due in April with a little boy- so needless to say Brandon will have a little buddy! We dressed him up in a polo shirt and he looked sooo handsome! He also loves to pull up and stand on his little legs.... I guess we knew he would be short and unusually strong- haha. He can also roll both ways- of course Jan 4 he rolled the hard way first (back to belly) and he just figured out the easy way on Feb 4- exactly one month apart! He also LOVES to rub his feet together which is definately a Walker trait- Josh and Jarred love rubbing their feet and so does Brandon.

Our 3rd Wedding Anniversary






Yesterday Josh and i celebrated our 3 year anniversary and it was even better because we also shared it with our new son. It's crazy to think that just 3 years ago we were getting married and if you would of asked me then if at our 3rd anniversary we would have a 3 month old I would of told you that you were crazy. Well I can say it's the best feeling in the world being parents and I'm so glad that he is here and a part of our lives:) Brandon is 3 1/2 months old and it's really facinating how quickly they change. He is grabbing for things and of course putting everything in his mouth! Also we go through about 5-7 bibs a day- mainly due to excessive drooling:) He loves sitting up on our laps and loves to try and stand.... right now he is a "supported sitter" but he definately loves the new view.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! I've decided to start updating everyone on Brandon and our new little family by blogging:) I got the idea from my good friend Kelly- who is currently blogging about her pregnancy.... thanks girl. Brandon will be 3 months old this Friday the 7th and it's hard to believe how fast time goes by. Of the many things great things of 2010- Brandon has been the BEST thing to have happened to us.... and we are enjoying all the great new things he does. He is smiling, cooing and his arms and legs move a million miles an hour when we sees mommy or daddy. It's so neat to see how quickly he changes and getting so big before our very eyes. We hope everyone had a great 2010 and we are looking forward to all the great memories ahead in 2011. Lots of new babies this year- can't wait!
