Merry christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! Brian had a great time opening presents and playing with Grandma and Grandpa Woodward and Aunt Denise and Uncle Tim. Click here to see the video!

Dinner

is a messy, messy affair.

Feliz Cumpleanos!

Que lo disfrutes alla en el verano! Un gran beso y abrazo!

Snow!

Well, it snowed enough last night that a morning walk in a stroller was not an option. So we got bundled up and went for a sled ride instead! Brian liked it (I think) until he got one of his hands free and touched the snow. Cold stuff! I also got some video of the event.

By popular demand

It's not the best picture ever, but I do think he looks adorable in his little big-kid clothes so I snapped a picture of him wearing them before he outgrows them. So, for all you who demanded new photos, here's a little something. Also, I took and uploaded some new video to YouTube of Brian rolling over and playing in his playpen.

Solids and smiles

Toys!

Hmm, this one didn't get rotated...

He's got lots of toys, and he likes to play with them.

Brian loves his turtle!

He's getting pretty good at using his hands... to bring things to his drooly drooly mouth :o)

Autumn

We went to Letchworth State Park with Monica's parents to see the fall colors. Brr!

Boo!

Tonight's our Halloween party, so yesterday we tried on the costume and fortunately it fits! Brian will be the cutest pumpkin there.

Movin' up in the world... This week also saw Brian trying out his new high chair, which he seems to like, so now he can sit at the table instead of on the table.

Warm baby, happy baby

Here's Brian after going on a walk today in his new used bundleme by JJ Cole Collections...

This was yesterday. Today he's all grumpy and whiny. Don't know what's going on...

Grandma's b-day!

Happy Birthday from all of us!

It's all in the jeans...

I couldn't resist... here's Brian showing off his cool new pair of big-boy jeans and his new favorite pastime: standing up! (With a little help, of course.)

A Day at the Beach

A new sun hat, a new outfit, and off we go to the beach!

Meeting friends

Down in Delaware for the long weekend, Brian has entertained a daily parade of friends, neighbors, and other admirers. Everyone loves a baby!

Here he is meeting his Auntie Jialynn...

And clowning around with Auntie Jen!

Who are we again?

We are... PENN STATE!!!

Baby's first trek in the wilderness

We took Brian on his first big outdoor expedition this week--to Letchworth state park with the Woodwards! He seemed to enjoy it. That is, he mostly slept through the entire experience with very little screaming. This is us with the waterfalls at inspiration point. Here's Brian on a hike through the woods with his Auntie Denise. As you can see, he enjoyed this part of the trip too.

Just kickin it

Family portrait informal

Well, almost another week has blown by. He has his good days, he has his fussy moments. He's certainly more alert these days, which generally means he's less eager to go to sleep after a meal. Here we are all spiffed up and looking our best!
