So there you have it. I think we are all caught up, and now it should be easier to stay up to date. I have finally caught up with all my blogs, so hopefully i will get back into a groove.

So here are all the things that Brendan is doing now.

He is very easily pulling him self up and walking along furniture, he crawls on his knees instead of a wounded soldier, and as the picture shows loves his real food. In the picture he was eating some baked ziti I made.

Unfortunately since his birthday he has been on and off sick. And just last week we found he still had an ear infections. The doctor gaves us a stronger anti-biotic and some ear drops this time. It seems to be helping, he is getting back to his happy Brendan.

Oh one last thing…He ripped the shift key off my computer! I was able to fix it but it randomly doesn’t work. So thank you son, I appreciate you taking such good care of my stuff.

Merry Christmas

This year we weren’t recovering from having a baby, so we decided it was a good idea to go to church for the christmas eve service. Brendan did very well, but we realized we should probably start taking him to the daycare since he tends to get bored with us.

Merry Christmas Party!

The weekend before christmas we traveled back to the old town, and went to Aunt Cricket and Uncle George’s christmas party. It was a lot of fun, we did a white-elephant aka chinese gift exchange.

Brendan also got to meet his 2nd cousin Susie for the first time. If you look over the photos it will look like he was scared, but we are saying he was just ‘tired’.

Here is Brendan on his actual birthday. It wasn’t nearly as exciting as his parties, but we got him a card to rip apart.

LIke I said before all the photos from his 2, count them, 2 birthday parties are uploaded and on my flickr page. Brendan wanted me to thank everyone for coming to both parties he enjoyed playing in his new ball pit with all his friends and all the family on sunday.

So what did he think of the cake you ask? He could care less, if he didn’t look so much like me I migh question the fact that he was my son. Anyone who knows me, knows I love sweets, and he could care less about his cakes.

Oh well, I guess I will love him anyways.
