Brandon likes to wander around the house with a stuffed animal and his thumb in his mouth. I like to call it sleep walking because that's what it looks like. Ignore the first part of the video as I couldn't get the chair out of the way without knocking brandon down, so i had to go around...

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes and phone calls. Sorry if I missed most of the calls I got Sunday...we had a really busy/fun day.

Thank you Tricia & Josh for spending the day with us...we had a wonderful day!

I posted pictures to webshots under the april folder, if you're interested. I need to put some of the videos on the blog, just haven't had the time/energy yet!!

We finally picked out a name for our soon-to-be-born baby. And it's not Connor...as we were thinking about that one. Bet you wanna know his name, right? Well, what are you gonna do to find out?

Brandon learned two tricks this weekend & today. This weekend Nemah taught him how to wave bye-bye. So he spent an ENTIRE day waving and thinking he was SO cool when he did. Today when Juan got home from work I kept asking Brandon "where's daddy" and he would look over at Juan and point. He did it three times. So those are his new tricks. Pointing to Daddy and waving bye bye.

He got his 4th tooth on Saturday. So now he has 3 on the top and still only one on the bottom. They're coming in so fast now it seems.

There are a few new pictures of Brandon at webshots. Today he was helping me do the laundry and I put the basket over him, which he LOVES. He got mad when I took it off, so I just left it on there and he seriously played under that basket for like 20 minutes before pushing it off. He is funny. Check out the new pics!

Everyone is asking me what we need for the new baby. We really don't need much this time around. We definately don't need clothes, but i did put together a small list of things we could use. i registered for a few things at Babies R Us.

I also registered for a few things at Target that go with the new baby's nursery set. It's nothing we "need", but once we get set up in our new house in jacksonville, I would like to decorate his room with some of this stuff.

And today marks 34 weeks pregnant. Just over a month left to go...

I need Juan to take new pictures!

We have discovered our new "Paradise!"
It's been over 100 degrees out the past few days and both Saturday and Sunday we went to the YMCA pool because it is just really awesome! They have this cool activity pool that is perfect for Brandon. It's like a beach where it's really shallow and gradually gets deeper, and then they have lots of cool sprayers and stuff. He loved just crawling around in the shallow part and of course splashing up a storm. We had a great time and it's our new favorite place. It's only $3 to get in, but we got lucky both days and got in FREE both times!!
Here are a few pictures/videos, and there are MORE over at webshots!















playing in the water--he LOVES it!

oh yeah, and we have an underwater camera that we have been using to take pictures with as well, but we have to wait until it's finished to get the pics developed. i think there's even pics from last summer on there! those will be fun to see!

for those who are having SNOW and COLD weather, COME VISIT!!

I had my 33 week check up with my midwife on Friday and for the most part everything is going well. He's already in the head-down position and will most likely remain that way from here on out. The baby is measuring 33 weeks, so exactly on schedule. She told me though, to be "ready" anytime after 36 weeks, which is SOON!! My next appointment is May 7th and by then I will almost be 37 weeks, and that could very well be my last appointment. Gosh, we really need to come up with a name and finish getting everything ready...

The bad part of the visit was that she told me I am "severely" anemic. My iron is really low which explains why i've been feeling dizzy and basically just 'out of it'. I need to take more iron in and fit it in my diet big time. Hopefully by the time I deliver my levels will be back to normal so I don't have any problems.

I have been feeling like a cow. I'm pretty sure the baby dropped, because I feel like he is so much lower and the way that I walk is so much different now. We walked around the mall yesterday and after like 2 laps, i was completely exhausted!!

Today brandon offically walked all the way across the room and back, no stopping, and no falling. Yesterday (or maybe it was the day before) I finally caught him walking without him stopping to crawl over to me. It's in the 1st video. The second video I ALMOST got him, but he saw me...but it's got a good shot of his two (and only) teeth!



caught him walking!!!

The time will be here before we know it that we will have two kids. We still have a lot of setting up to do and a few things to purchase...(must get on the ball soon!)

Anyways, Rachel sent us her double stroller and we finally got it out to test it out with our carseat. Brandon is the big boy sitting in the back. We can't wait to see what it's going to be like with both of them in there.





Thanks Aunt Rachel, Uncle Allen, Kylie and Kira!

I love country, I was listening to the radio today on the way to the library and heard this song. It brought tears to my eyes, especially the ending. This isn't the "official video" b/c it's a brand new song, but listen to the song if you want to.
