Christmasy Cats

I know you probably want to see photos of Bo by the tree and opening presents and all that "baby's first Christmas" documentation. For the first time in a long time, we thought to take photos of our cats instead. Poor guys. Anyway, they enjoyed the tree and mostly the spot of sunlight by the tree.

(We do have some pictures of Brogan at Christmas, but they are on my parents' camera. We'll get them soon.)

Week 19

After weeks of stretching, concentrating, and coordinating, Brogan has finally figured out how to grab his own feet. He's now working on getting those feet into his mouth.

Starting Early

Brogan enjoys a Saturday morning, skimming Talk of the Town and submitting a caption for this week's cartoon.

Catch Up

It's been a while since I updated the blog. I went back to work part-time and with that, combined with the holidays, well, the blog went un-updated. Here are some pictures from the last few weeks. I'll do them in separate posts to organize them a little. These are just some random play photos.

4 Month Check-Up

Brogan had his four month check up today. He weighs 16lbs 4oz and is 26 inches long! As usual, he put on his bravest face for the shots and only cried a little bit.

Get a load of this guy!

Week 15

Brogan Laughing!

Brogan is laughing and, well, it just makes our day. What he finds funny is always a little bit of a mystery. Right before I grabbed the camera, he was babbling, saying something that sounded like "googoo". I repeated it back to him, and he thought it was hilarious.
Just so you all know, that is him snorting NOT me! And, yes, the camera is shaky. It is hard to make a baby laugh and hold the camera at the same time!

More Thanksgiving

We spent Saturday after Thanksgiving with the Lenneman clan. The large group photo is of all of Fritz's cousins on that side plus Bo. And the photo with the dark curly hair is Fritz and Aunt Hallie trying to see what Brogan would look like if he inherits Hallie's amazing hair! The stockings hanging from the mantel were made by Grandma Kate - Brogan received one just like them in time for his first Christmas. Thank you Kate!

Thanksgiving Continued

These photos are indicative of how Brogan spent his Thanksgiving weekend. He was showered with LOVE by his Grandma and Great-Aunts (Grandma Kate on the right, Great Aunt Betsy on the Left) and he soaked up every ounce of it.

Thanksgiving

As usual, we drove to Michigan for Thanksgiving to see Fritz's parents, siblings, and extended family. This time Brogan came along and was the life of the party. He got to spend some quality time with his relatives, playing with the "cat pillow" at Great Aunt Mary's house, watching the Lions game with Grandpa, and hanging out with Uncle Charlie.
