2 and a half months!

Look ma, I can sit by myself!

Our little peanut

Some updates from recent times...
At Brady's 2 month appointment he weighed in at (just as we had thought) 13 pounds and 23 inches. He's in the 75th percentile for weight and 65th for height. The doctor was very pleased with his growth. He got a couple of shots (aww) but he did great.
He is such a happy little baby. There are no words to describe how it feels seeing his little face smiling ear to ear when he looks into your eyes. I guess the best way is to say it just melts your heart. Bob and I are such saps...we spend our nights just staring at him and kissing him and saying over and over how much we love him and how great he is and how we cant believe he's ours. Ahhh. We, along with Grandpa Johnny and Grammy Carol are certifiably nuts.
I also wanted to make it a point to mark this week as the first time(s) that Brady slept through the entire night!!! On both Monday and Tuesday nights, he slept from 9pm until almost 6am. Yay!!! Although last night he fell asleep early at 8:00 and got up at 3. But ate quick and went back down till 7am. Still, I am not complaining.

Here's a couple of pics of the little munchkin. How could you NOT love him!?! Ok, going in the other room to kiss him now.

More fun at grandma and grandpa's house!

Happy 2 month birthday Brady!

Brady turned 2 months today! Its amazing how fast the time has flown by. Bob and I just can't get enough of our little guy. I think I probably kiss him 500 times a day (low estimate). He is getting so big and it seems like every day he grows up a little more. We have a doctor appointment tomorrow, but my guess is that he is up to almost 13lbs.! He's a little porker thats for sure! He is starting to wear his 3-6 month clothes now. He smiles like crazy at us, especially when we go into his room in the morning. Just the other day he started giving us some "coo's" and "goo's" when we talk to him. Its so cute to hear his voice, I can't wait till he starts babbling more regularly! He is holding up his head like a champ now, and we can even pull him up to a sitting position by holding his hands. His legs are really strong and he loves standing up (holding on to him of course). He also loves to sit in his Bumbo chair and play with us laying on the chaise in the living room. Here are some comparison pics from 1 week old until now, using the football (Bob's idea) as a size reference. Look how big he is getting!!!

Oh... and this is what happens when he goes to Grandma and Grandpa's house... I get pictures like this sent to my email. My little hot pepper! I love him!

The 3 Amigos meet

Yesterday Brady (2 months old), Alexa (3 months), and Kaitlyn (5 months) met for the first time. It was quite an event...filled with costumes, paparazzi, and good wholesome baby nakedness. Here are some pics from the day.

The first meeting of the minds:

Brady and his chicks:

Good old naked babies:
I think Kaitlyn likes Brady... between the head rubbing and the slapping, she was quite the little flirt! Brady didn't seem to mind.And finally...the costume extravaganza...it was quite a spectacle!

Brady's First Vacation

We spent Labor Day week in the Outer Banks of North Carolina in a big house with the Carbone crew and my family. Brady had his first plane ride (he did great), first time in the pool (not so great), and first time at the beach! We had a really fun time with everyone and are looking forward to another vacation next year!
