Christmas In Prescott

We spent this years Christmas with Christopher's family in Prescott. It was nice to be in a place with some snow for a change! Prescott is so fun and Christopher and I enjoyed getting away and spending time with his family. We even got a chance to leave the baby with Aunt Rachel and Uncle Gary for a little while to have a 4 wheeling adventure with Brittany and meet Santa!
Good Times...

Meeting Santa

We happened to be walking by the "North Pole" at the local mall as santa showed up. Since there was no line, we just had to get little Branson a picture with Santa, but I have to say that he wasn't all that jolly....

2 month Update!

At Bransons 2 month Check up, he weighed in at just over 17 pounds. Incase you aren't familiar, that is about 6 pounds over the average, which put him way over the 100th percentile! He's our little chunk, but he is so cuddly and soft. He's above the 97th percentile for height too, but his head is only in the 50-60th percentile. Suprising because his head seems so big-- it must be all the chub surrounding it! He is really good at holding his head up now, and finally starting to explore the world around him. He is absolutely full of grins and giggles- he's been smiling since he was just over 1 month old. We love making him smile, it just warms out hearts. Here are some pictures from around his 2 month mark.

The daily routine

Just thought I would make a little mention of the reality of BABIES! My good friend Alexis had her baby just after me so we spend most of our time together, whether working, cleaning, or just hanging out with the kiddos. It is so nice to spend my days with someone who knows exactly what I am going through, and can share in going on and on about the smallest little new things our babies have accomplished. Here is a picture of how most of our days went in the beginning, although I must admit things are getting better every day. We can't wait until the boys can actually entertain eachother!

Lunch with Noah & Amanda

The day after Thanksgiving, we were able to go to lunch and spend some time with our good friends Noah and Amanda. It was nice to get out and be part of the world for a change, but it was kind of crazy being at the mall on the busiest shopping day of the year. Its a whole new experience with a baby... its all about finding the route that leads to the escalator... Here are some pictures of our time with Noah, but sadly I don't have any with Amanda...

Six Week Pictures

When Branson was six weeks old, we had some professional pics taken of him- Here are just a couple of the shots.... We love our little Chunk!












Thanksgiving 2007

For Thanksgiving this year, Christopher and I had everyone over to our house for the first time! My mom and Scott flew in for the occassion, Christophers side of the family came, and our friends The Lundbergs also came over. Between both of the "Grandma's" cooking the feast, it turned out really well. The boys fried a turkey in the backyard and also managed to get the Christmas lights up. We didn't really get many pictures of the day and Branson slept through most of it (Ofcourse that meant he stayed up all night...) He still looked cute in his little thanksgiving outfit though!!!
