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:
The last picture is priceless. Glad to hear Brady is doing well! And sorry about the fact that you can't eat dairy anymore. :( But, what's best for Brady is what matters.
