2.5 months old

Well, it is officially the holiday season - it's amazing how time flies!

Brady helped us celebrate our first Thanksgiving as a family of three. He sat in his swing during dinner, contently watching us consume gross amounts of calories. Poor thing was probably jealous of the great food we were eating...all he got was some milk, again.....

What the heck?

Passed out - - I tried to wake him up, but he wouldn't get up.....

Happy Baby!

2 months

Brady's two-month birthday crept up on us awful fast. We can't believe it's been two months already. We went for his two month check up today, and our little boy is doing fantastically. His weighing in at 13.5 lbs (yikes!) and is over 2 feet long (double yikes). He's currently growing out of most 3-6 month clothes....ahhH!!! We think he might have gotten the DeLalio/Wyckoff giant genes....sorry Turzas.

Brady has discovered his hands this week. Apparently, they are quite delicious and interesting...he spends quite a bit of his awake time studying and eating them. It's quite cute, not gonna lie.

He also has been sleeping better at night, which Mommy and Daddy greatly appreciate. All in all, he's the perfect little baby (of course).

We also finally stopped giving Brady sponge baths on the kitchen counter and started him in his "big boy tub"....he doesn't cry, we think he still hasn't figured it out yet. Judge for yourself:

He also has taken to playing in his jungle playmat, he loves the lights and sounds it makes. Obviously, he is very intent on studying it:

And, here's a picture of Brady doing one of his favorite things.....He was awake, content in his chair, and when I turned around to see why he was so quiet....I found this:

Brady's 7 Weeks old!

Brian and I are now expert parents....we've successfully made it through 7 weeks, and Brady is still doing great! We are enjoying every second (well, maybe except those extremely poopy diapers......) of parenthood.

In Brady news:

Two weeks ago we figured out that our little man doesn't love dairy as much as his Mama. His little tummy wasn't taking to it too well....and since Mama eats dairy at every meal..you can imagine how upset it was making him. So, after talking to the dr., Mom changed her diet, no dairy (it's harder than you think) and we changed formula from a milk-based one to non-milk based. And, let me tell you, Brady is such a happy boy now!! He happily plays on the floor for hours each day - he's kicking, moving his little arms, and chatting up a storm. He has lots of stories to tell. He's also smiling ALL the time, it's the cutest smile I've ever seen!

When we went to the dr. two weeks ago he was already 11 + lbs....we go for our 2 month check up next week, I'm sure he's still "thriving" (as the dr. says).

He has also been Mom's motivator for getting out the door to "run", and by "run" we mean light jog....it's been a few months. So, he sits in his stroller, smiling away as Mom huffs and puffs behind him, trying to get those extra inches and pounds off. It's a long road to half-marathons....but, we are out there moving almost everyday.

So...onto the more important things - Pictures!

Getting burped by Dad, look at those kissable, pinchable cheeks!

His First Halloween (these pictures were taken late in the afternoon....Brady was VERY tired...hence, the pacifier)

A well fed Brady is a happy Brady:
