So...a 4 week old baby has a blog! What is this world coming to?
Actually, the reason for it is quite creative actually. Okay, maybe not creative since everyone and their mother has blogs these days. However, for us and Brandon we have decided this might be easier. We frequently get phone calls asking how Brandon is. When you have a baby that is the first question you get asked by family, work, friends, even strangers. Because we have a large family and friends base we decided Brandon should have his own blog to keep everyone informed. We LOVE that people are so interested in how he is doing...even how he is eating, sleeping, burping, etc. We know that he is a very loved little boy. There are many things we forget to tell family and friends so hopefully this will be the place to share that.
As for today...Brandon is doing great! He is in his swing right now (which he loves sometimes and hates sometimes). He is about to wake up from a little nap. Our mornings are pretty routine. He eats at 5am when dad is up with us. We all wake up together (which takes us a half hour because only Brandon is a morning person). He does go back to sleep and lets mom have another 2 hours of sleep. He is wide awake at 7ish and I bring him into bed with me. This is one of my favorite times of day. I lay him next to me and he eats again. Because I can feed him laying down sometimes I take small cat naps and when I do Brandon just stares at me. He loves being close to people and cuddling. After eating, singing, and talking about our morning I jump in the shower. Brandon is SO GOOD during this time. He likes to lay in the middle of the bed surrounded by pillows and listen to music while mom is in the shower. After I am ready for the day and he is ready for the day we go downstairs and just hang out. Sometimes he swings, sometimes he plays on his activity mat, sometimes we just cuddle. Every day we try and get out and do something. I can't stay in the house all day and he actually loves going out. He loves being outside and loves car/stroller rides. Yesterday we went for a walk and had lunch with Auntie Nicky, Auntie Becky, Auntie Elena, and Auntie Karen. He was really good. Today we are going to Turn Style. I am really excited to get rid of some maternity clothes that I don't want anymore. We are going to run a few errands, get fathers day cards, return some movies to RedBox, and then come home. We are glad it is nice outside. Rumor has it they are opening our pool at the townhomes this weekend. I am hoping for a warm day before I return to work so I can take him to dip his feet in. He isn't a fan of water- but I want to just see how he does dipping his feet in.
Please feel free to leave comments or questions. I am going to also try and post a photo every day.
Have a great Wednesday all!
