Latest and Greatest

Wow. Really? 3 months since the last post on this thing? I personally blame Facebook. It's much easier to update that crazy thing than this one. When I say easier, what I mean is that I can be a whole lot lazier and throw up a couple of pics and a one-liner and call it good. On the blog, I have to go into detail and stuff. Man, that's hard to do. Well maybe not hard, just take up more time that we don't seem to have a lot of lately. So, I would again like to re-commit to our commitment of updating this blog. It really is darn cool. Just need to make it a point to do it. Hopefully I can "nutshell" a lot of our life for the past few months.

Bruin is of course the main topic of conversation. He is doing fantastic! Growing like crazy I tell ya. We haven't had him weighed lately, but I'll bet he's on the top end of 18 pounds or so. He will be 8 months old on the 28th of May. His personality is awesome. All around, he's just a chill, happy baby. The first few months of life were pretty strained and difficult, but he has really turned an awesome corner. He is content, and happy the majority of the time. He only starts to fuss when there is something wrong. Or if he starts getting hungry. I can relate, I also start to fuss when I get hungry - can't blame Bruin for doing the same thing.

Bruin is super mobile. I wouldn't call it crawling just yet. It is more of the army crawl thing right now, but he can certainly get to where he wants to go, and quick! he is currently most attracted to black electrical cords, and Payton's water dish. :) I think in the next couple of weeks he'll be full on crawling. He's has graduated to people food now. We still feed him his baby food, and formula - but he is able to put down some mashed up people food too. He is growing so dang fast! He is incredibly vocal too. No words yet, but he definitely like to hear himself talk! Lastly, he really likes the ladies (good job son). Whenever we're out and about, if he sees someone next to us or whatever, he is ALL smiles! It is hilarious!

Andrea and I are doing great! I finally finished my dang Associates degree. Yahoo! It only took me 16 years! Geesh! I'll start up the Bachelor's program in the fall. Andrea celebrated her first Mother's Day. I had pics taken of Bru and I and gave them to her. She liked them a lot. I had to be sneaky but accomplished my mission.

Outside of that, there really isn't a whole lot of stuff going on. We're just plugging away going to work and coming back home. We do still manage to have somewhat of a life by going out to the occasional dinner with friends, or having them over at the house. So, (as I'm knocking on wood) things are going really well for us. We are certainly blessed beyond what we deserve and we're just trying not to mess up too badly in any particular way. :)

Before the pics - you HAVE to take a look at the video we took of Bruin! Too funny - everytime I see it I laugh out loud!
