Not sure if I mentioned... 7:56 PM

but Brandon has 2 teeth now! His top two! He got the 2nd one about 4 or 5 days after the first one!

Walking 7:52 PM

Well, brandon has been taking a few steps here and there. Usually I am standing right there or it happens out of nowhere, so I haven't gotten any good videos. When he sees the camera he stops.

Today, he actually walked from the couch (where daddy was) to the other side of the room (where I was), which was probably about 7 or 8 steps. These videos were taken right after that, we tried to get him to do it again, but as you can see he takes like 2 or 3 steps and then crawls. Thought I would share though b/c you can see progress! Can't wait to get better videos!

Oh yeah, I think it's this next video, he gets frustrated because we are trying to "make" him walk. We'll do anything to get a video!!

Puzzle 7:49 PM

Nemah got Brandon a puzzle this weekend and Brandon is so proud of himself when he gets a piece to fit! Unfortunately when he doesn't get it in, he gets SO frustrated, but this video is SO cute of him clapping at his progress!

Happy Easter! 11:23 AM

Happy Easter everyone! We had a great day yesterday. We went to church with Nemah and Grandpa, went to brunch and the soup plantation, looked for easter eggs at Nemah and Grandpa's house. Then Brandon went down for a nap and when he woke up we all went to the pool. It was 88+ degrees outside...just beautiful! Then we all went home and had a delicious ham dinner. It was a great easter. Here are some pictures of the easter boy and some from the pool!

and here's the family!

oh yeah...we were on our way home from church and brandon was in the back just laughing so hard. we didn't know why. so we looked back and he had this chicken on his head. he thought it was the funniest thing!

and here are a few from the pool, plus a video of brandon splashing around. he was splashing like crazy!!

loves to splash!

stuff... 8:34 PM

nothing too exciting going on right now, but i wanted to let you know i added a March 08 album to webshots. the pics are from the last week or so. I didn't label the pics because half way thru the upload the computer froze and i couldn't get to the page where i can title all of them at once, otherwise i would have to do it individually.
Anyways, they are from the bowling alley, we went to support our friend Mary at a Bowl-a-thon, and brandon had fun eating pizza and riding in the car game with Juan. Some of the pictures are from a day we spent at mission bay, it was beautiful outside. Brandon kept trying to crawl really far away in the grass. There are a few pics from around the house, brandon has the cutest soccer jersey on, and then of course the infamous teeth pictures! Enjoy!

Baby news...I had my 27 week check-up this past week. I had to take the glucose test to see if I had developed gestational diabetes and take a test for my iron levels. The glucose test came back normal, but my iron was kind of low. So now I get to take iron twice a day, which really isn't a big deal. I think I had to do that when I was pregnant with Brandon too. Everything else looked good. The baby is measuring on time and I got to hear his heart beating again. Sunday I will be 28 weeks pregnant so we've got 12 (or less) to go!!

Finally... 7:15 PM

At 14 and a half months old, Brandon FINALLY got his first tooth! I couldn't believe it when I saw it this morning! No wonder he was cranky all day yesterday! It's kind of funny because it's on the top and usually the first teeth are on the bottom, but it is a tooth and we are excited! I got a few pictures, sorry I had to shove my thumb in there to get a good view, but here is the proof!

I have a few more pictures and updates to add later, so check again soon!
