more updates on the Bolts....

Hello....

We traveled to Michigan last weekend and Brielle had the opportunity to meet lots of people. She traveled like a pro...sleeping the entire plane ride, while her brother....he has turned into quite a handful..but, he is almost 2yrs...what can we expect.

Brielle is ONE month old today...stay tuned, as I have yet to take her picture in the chair next to the bear...some of you may remember that I did this with Braydon as well.

Life continues to be very busy...but we are settling in, and I will not say routine...because, nothing feels like routine right now. Our little lady thinks that 12am-2am is a good time to be wide awake and pleasant.....

Braydon is doing great and I can't believe he is going to be 2! in just a few short weeks...time flies!

Love you all..will post more soon...

Hello...

busy week at the Bolt household....feel like I am always going to be saying that...

Grandma left with Grandpa on Sunday morning...after a fun weekend, we were all sad to see them go, Grandma helped a ton while she was here and Grandpa was put to work doing projects almost immediately after he got here. Then...Braydon and Brett headed to the Baltimore Raven's game for a fun afternoon of football...and Braydon had a great time.

Now...we head to Michigan..,,stayed tuned for more pics....

TWO WEEKS!

Brielle has been home for two weeks...and we had our first appointment with Dr. Nancy this morning. Happy to report.....all is good, she is up to 7 lbs 8 oz (35th %) and 20 3/4 inches long (65%). The doctor was happy with her progress. She continues to be a by the book baby, sleeping all the time, very easy going, and rarely crys!

Braydon is adjusting.....he loves her very much and wants so badly to show her that love, we just have to work on the word "gentle". He enjoyed halloween this week, "trick or treat" is a favorite phrase right now, and somehow thinks that everytime he says that....he should be given candy. hmmm, the lessons of life. :)

Grandma leaves on Sunday, and we will start on our own. It has been awesome to have my mom around and all the help she has given!

stay posted for more pics!

hmmm, what is that crazy brother of mine doing?

Our first week home.....with a family of FOUR!

Hello....

the week has gone great! my mom is here..which has been a tremendous help, and Brett took the week off of work..which has been great for Braydon! So far....all is good, Brielle is a sleeper...so we have had peaceful days, and not such bad nights, and Braydon is in love with his little sister. Although, it is hard to explain to a 22 mos old..how to be gentle with a 6 day old. :) oh well, glad it is love...not dislike.

stay posted for more pics....
