March is Flying by.....

Hello..

we have been busy, and we have SOOO many pictures to show for it...i tried to limit my choices, but you all know how i am with pictures....so, i may put more on as the week progresses. i have some that i need to turn in order to fit into Blogger..

but...that said. We enjoyed a visit from Aunt Melissa and cousin Aaron from California one weekend. we all went to the Science Center, and spent a lot of time playing at the house. We quickly learned that we will have to keep an eye on Braydon and Aaron this summer..they could easily get into some fun mischief! Then, the next week we have Uncle Burt and Aunt Leslie visit...and we went to the circus, hung out, played and Braydon took myself and his Aunt Leslie along to a birthday party for his friend Alex.

We have had some really warm weather, one day last week it reached 81 degrees! time to head to the park! Grandpa and Grandma Kidder are on the way to see us this coming weekend and Brielle will be 5 mos old on Tuesday! time flies. We had her 5 mos checkup and she is in the 65th percentile for height and weight (15.4lbs, and 25.5 inches long)...so considerably smaller than her brother was at this age, but just perfect for her! She is starting to sit on her own, and loves to stand, along with watch her big brother and just laugh aloud at him! We get the best smiles, and laughter out of her when she is watching Braydon.

Hello...

I can't believe we are this far through February already...time is flying! We had our first piece of winter this past week with a lovely ice storm that shut down a lot of the area, including Brett's office for one day. We enjoyed a nice day at home, and Braydon got to go outside with Brett for some outdoor play....our yard is still a big frozen piece of ice, but it sure looks pretty and it was about time we had some winter weather.

Brielle with be 4 mos old this Tuesday....can you believe it? she is changing a lot, and has really started to engage with us more......she loves her dad,....whenever he enters the room and she hears his voice, she stops whatever she is doing and looks and smiles. she has been trying to sit up, and has sat for short periods by herself. grabbing at toys, rocking on her belly and trying to get those feet to her mouth...it has been fun to watch.

Braydon is talking in sentences, and it is really interesting to have another talking human being in the house with us who actually carrys on a conversation with you. This next week, he will be starting a 2yr old preschool program and going Mon and Wed, from 9am-12pm...so....six hours a week with some fun school...we toured the school last week and he joined right in. This will also prepare him for his preschool that he is going to next fall.

well...enjoy the pics...
