{Four Months...}

No, he is NOT crawling yet this was staged! Just too cute to pass up sharing!!

March 3rd Bronson turned 4 months old!!

4 Month Stats:

• Weight: 14 lbs 7 oz - 40th%
• Height: 25.5 in - 72nd%
• Head: 16.8 in - 64th%

click here to see his 2 month stats

I was SO happy and shocked when I went to his Dr appointment and we got to check his weight (the best part of the visit, I think). I knew forsure he was at least in the high 12's or low 13's but I did NOT expect 14 1/2 lbs!! Before we went to his appointment Bronson's Aunt Beth put in her guess of what his stats would be (I think she knows him better than ME!!) she guessed 14 lbs and 25 in, now that is pretty impressive!! To understand how much of a change this is you have to know that we had an appointment with the G.I. Dr to check back on his Reflux on January 28th. At that appointment he weighed in at exactly 11 lbs and measured at 23 in. So in 1 short month & a few days he gained 3 1/2 lbs and grew 2 1/2 in!!

LOVE THESE CHUBBY LEGS!

He caught me taking his picture while he was sleeping!

love, Love, LOVE this little guy!!

{What's on the Agenda?}

The month of March is going to be a busy but fun month for us!

Here is what we have been doing and what is coming up on our Agenda:

Nick: This month Nick will be starting up a new program at work. This will be the start of his new promotion! I am proud of him and he is very excited for this new challenge. He has been working very hard and doing an amazing job so that I am able to S.A.H. with Bronson! Nick is also in the process of going back to school for his Bachelors Degree. (insert smile here)
**Side Note: The other day Nick got a phone call from a gentlemen at work asking for directions to his office. Without even thinking he was able to spout off the exact directions to get there from the location this man was at. Later that night when Nick was telling me this story he said with a smile on his face "After I hung up the phone I thought, Wow I really do live here now!" (I think he was really proud of himself!)

Lindsey: I am taking a Cake Decorating Class the next 4 Mondays in March as well as a Sewing Class every Thursday for the next 6 weeks! I am so excited! I love to bake and just be in the kitchen. I have especially loved it since I have been at home and I have had more time to do it. Something new to add to the kitchen! I hope to be able to make something of it as well! Also, I have been wanting to learn to sew for about 2 or 3 years now since I got my sewing machine for a birthday present and I have yet to learn!! I did make Bronson a quilt which was a big deal but I don't know that I could do that again!!! I have also made a list of "My Goals for Hobbies in 2010" and I plan to do my best to accomplish each one of them and actually make them Hobbies!!! I figure I am blessed to have the opportunity to be at home and I should make the most of my down time! Why not be more Crafty and Well Rounded, it never hurts right??

Bronson: He will be 4 months old on the 3rd of March! He is growing up SO fast!!! I have to say, of course it makes me sad that he is growing up so fast but I LOVE every new stage he is in! He is a blast to have around and he is one of the happiest children I have ever been around! He is absolutely a joy to be around and I'm sure I could just stare at him all day long!! He has his 4 month check up on the 5th so his new stats will be coming!
**Side Note: If there is someone that can A.L.W.A.Y.S make Bronson laugh it would be his daddy! He knows when his daddy gets home from work and every time he sees him his face just lights up and for no reason he will let out a laugh! Melt my heart!!!

Extras on the Agenda: We will be having our first Arizona visitors! We are so excited to see some familiar faces from Utah! Nick's Aunt Charmaine and Cousin Chantel well be staying with us in total for almost 2 weeks!! I'm not exactly sure how to entertain here just yet but we will do our best!!!

As far as Arizona goes, we are really getting adjusted to our new home and I really think we are going to LOVE it here! The weather is beautiful, the people are so nice and we are meeting a lot of new friends! I feel like this has been a huge step for me to come out of this "shy" bubble I have always been in and it makes me happy!

BTW, I am trying this whole "not being private gig" again. I'll let you know if I change my mind again!!!

{The Ever-Growing "Bug"}

Due to my lack of blogging I got in trouble by 2 unnamed sisters!! (love ya)

So here is an update on our little man:

February 8th, 2010 {3 months}
Bronson rolled over for the first time!

{1} Tummy

{2} Rolling

{3} Back

This is my attempt of "action shots" (a little blurry)

We were SO proud of him! He has never been a huge fan of "Tummy Time" and because he had such a rough start to life I was worried it would take awhile for him to catch up to children his own age. Well, I can just say he proved his momma wrong forsure! He is growing like a weed and extremely active. He has caught up in no time at all!!

{Some Things Bronson Is Doing Now!}

*He actually doesn't mind Tummy Time now!

*He loves playing with his toys!

*He loves to read books & watch his kiddy movies!

*He would much rather be laying on the floor then doing anything else!

*He is starting to grow out of his swing (sigh)

*He rolled from back to tummy 1x (We are still working with him to do it again!!)

*He is no longer taking his reflux medication!! YaY!

*He is always laughing or smiling at something!

*He will pretty much have NOTHING to do with his binky (which if you have been around him you know he has LOVED his binky since DAY 1)

*He absolutely LOVES to listen to iTunes and dance with daddy!! (Cutest thing to watch!)

**Note from Dad "Yes, he does like Depeche Mode"

{What do you think?}

I have a really hard time figuring out who Bronson looks like. We have had mixed reviews from everyone. To me he looks like his own little person and I have a hard time seeing either of us in him. Besides the fact that he mirrors his daddy's personality to a tee!!

So... What Do You Think?

{Two Months...}

... and growing like a Weed!

"Ready to go Mom"

2 Month Stats...

• Weight: 9 lbs 13 oz-11th%
• Height: 22.5-32nd%
• Head: 15.6-37th%

I can't believe he is already 2 months old! It feels like just yesterday I was in the hospital praying he would hurry up and get here!! Now, he is here and we are so in love!

Here are a few things to remember about Bronson up until now:

• He is such a good baby and rarely complains
• I know when he is telling me he is hungry, tired or has a dirty diaper. If all of that is taken care of, he is happy
• He just smiles away
• He loves to listen to you talk and will even talk back
• He loves to be sang to
• He is a great little sleeper
• He is an excellent eater
• He loves to cuddle
• He occasionally thinks his binkie is a game
• He adores his daddy!
• And he is absolutely a joy to be around!

Bronson, we love you so much and you are such a blessing to our family! You bring such an amazing spirit into our home and you keep us centered. You make us remember everyday the joys of a simple life. We love you and can't wait to continue to watch you grow!

{First Haircut}

As you can see Bronson was starting to form a mohawk! As a hairstylist mom, who is not a fan of mohawks, I decided it was time to give this little man a trim!

He did such a good job! He pretty much smiled at Nick the entire time!! Towards the end he was letting me know HE WAS DONE!
