2 Months Today!

 "Today You are You! It's truer than true! There's no one on earth that's you-er than you!"




Today we woke up to a fresh white wonderland! A foot of snow blanketed the earth outside and I was taken by the beauty I was surrounded by.

Today Ian and Colton are sick. They have fevers and coughs. We've been doing our best to keep them away from you but it is really hard when all they want to do is kiss and hold you! And I'm sorry to say, Colton did plant a wet one on you. Right on the kisser too (Ugh!)! I really hope you dodged most of this.




You've had a remarkable month as you continue to grow and change. On the 5th of Feb you rolled from your belly to your back! I was so surprised and impressed. What a strong boy you are!

You've started to grab my hair and the skin on my neck and hold on tight. It's cute and boy you've got a strong grip. That's for sure!



You are learning more and more to comfort yourself as you are become more able to put your fingers in your mouth and make sweet sucking noises. One day as Cambria was watching you do this she exclaimed "Look! Bradly is sucking on his hand! Mama, you really are teaching Bradley to comfort himself!" Cambria adores you and is a wonderful big sister to you.

You've been using your voice a little bit more. I love to hear those vocal cords at work. The sounds that slip from your lips are so heavenly to me.





The past month you've been gracing us with your beautiful smile and I love it! A lot of the time it has been tiny smiles or half smiles that are just so precious. But today, on your two month birthday, you have been SO smiley and really responsive to my prods to show me those sweet gums. It's been such a wonderful present for me!
