Crawling...

So Brandon is 9 months now, wow time flies! He is now crawling and tries to pull himself up on everything! He has become quite the handful over the last few weeks! He likes to find papers and tear them apart, he also finds every little thing there is on the floor and tries to eat it. He loves to be anywhere his brothers are and be right in their face. The other day they closed their bedroom door because they were playing and they did not want him to wreck what they were doing. He waited outside the door, hitting it and when the door opened he went as fast as he could to get into their room. His new favorite word is Mama? He actually says Mama, Dada, Ba (which is Ball), Baba (which means Bottle). At least that is what I say he is saying, haha! He also makes us laugh because he is so smart. We can say where is Mom and he looks right at me, where is Kayden and he looks at him. The other day I asked him if he wanted to bounce and he turned around and looked at his jumper and I asked him where the ball is and he crawled to it. It's funny he understands so well. He has become quite the picky eater, he does not like jar baby food, he would rather eat what we are eating and he loves to feed himself. He has also turned into quite the meany! He loves to grab your face, stick his finger up your nose and pull your ear off! He has also become a fan of pulling my hair. So fun! My favorite time with him is when he gets tired, he is quite the cuddle bug and he'll give you kisses. He has always been quite the daddy's boy, but lately when I walk in the room he wants mom, which I don't mind :) This video was taken a few weeks ago. He was trying to race Kayden to something he had put on the floor! Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Today is my Mom's birthday, she is 64 years young (I think) and will probably not like that I posted that! She is beautiful and we love her so much! She is an awesome cook and it's great when the whole family gets together because she always makes such awesome food, especially her lasagna, it's the best!!!! She has always been there for all the grandchildren supporting them in all their many sporting events, which with 23 grandchildren that is a challenge in itself!

We love you Mom/Grandma! Happy Birthday from all of us!

The decision....

It has been decided that we are keeping the guitar. Kayden is learning to play at school so he has been using it to practice. We might even look into putting him in lessons outside of school. He tries to teach me some of the chords that he is learning but it hurts my fingers, I don't know how he does it! HAHA!!!
