Bruiser Brody!

I started this post on Brody's 4 month birthday & I'm finishing it up 4 days later because RSV decided to invade our little man. He's doing really well considering. He's wheezing quite a bit but in a pretty good mood.

Bruiser Brody is 4 months old today. It is CRAZY to me that he is already 4 months. I'm going to ramble here for a few minutes about him. You can skip all this info. It's mainly for his baby book that I might start when he's 18. hehe :) Brody is quite the ham. He has the best smile & laugh. It just melts your heart everytime. He's still sleeping through the night. Praise the Lord! :) He eats well which is proven by the fact that he weighs 17 lbs 13 oz. He's 25 1/2 " long & his big water head measures 45 cm. He has no interest in rolling anywhere at this point. I can't blame him. If I was that small & weighed that much, I wouldn't go anywhere either. :) He has started ending up in a completely opposite position than what I put him to bed with. So I guess he's figuring out some way to move. He drinks about 5 bottles a day. Brody like to sit in the bumbo chair. He wants to see what's going on in the world. He LOVES his brother. He just laughs & laughs at Gibson. Although, to G's credit, he's a pretty funny kid. :) B is my snuggle baby. Gibson was one of those kids that just wanted his space when he was tired. Just lay him down & let him be. Which was nice once he was older. But I definitely missed having a lovey baby that wanted me to hold him & snuggle with him. B is my more snuggley (if that's a word) baby. He sleeps best when he's laying on your chest. He would rather you hold him & love on him. He has the same hair style as his brother. The flat mo-hawk. All his hair is in the center on the top of his head. B has less hair than G done but's it's the same style. Brody has discovered his tongue. He sticks it out & tries to figure out exactly what it is. Brody is sitting in my lap & he's licking me right now so I better wrap it up.
Here are a few pics of our chunky monkey.


Ignore the drool running down his body. He was tired of sitting up so I laid him down but forgot to wipe the drool off.
There! That's better. No drool. ;) (i forgot to mention that when I took him to the doctor on Wednesday that he weighed 18 lbs 6 oz. Geez!)
How you doing?
This picture REALLY makes me laugh!
The picture above looks reminded me of this. Pretty funny!
Poor Gibson was deprived of playing in the snow because he was sick. He was going to work with me because Jason was on duty for the entire 48 hours the snow was on the ground. So we built a snowman at work. Don't laugh. I don't like being cold & I am not a professional snowman builder.
I mentioned in another post that I've got to get used to at least one of the boys not looking at the camera when I need them to. They were experts in that field here. Oh well!
Brotherly love!
See what I mean? Gibson finally looks & Brody looks like a ghost. Ugh!
Gibson starts t-ball in a few weeks. Should make for a busy & exciting spring!
