Just When you Thought It Was Safe...

When babies attack!

Oh the humanity.

Screeching

Brinnon has found her voice. Towards the end of the video you'll hear her 'screech'...she does this now when she's crying too. A lot of times she will stop crying momentarily because we think she is somewhat shocked at the sound. "Did this really come out of me?"

Family Photo Shoot

Bourdaghs

Our good pals Angie and Mike came up this weekend from St. Paul. Angie is pregnant and due in a few weeks, so I we tried to fill them in on all the information they may need as new parents. But really,as all new parents know, no one can do that. It comes with experience only. We wish you the best A and M in the next few weeks.

B wearing Mike's Hat...word!

Snowmen at Night

I love reading books with my dad. I'm still not so sure about him putting me to bed at night, so he's taken on the role of reading me books before bed.

Ready for a hike

Thanksgiving!

What a year! What a year with lots of things to be thankful for! Friends and family, love and support...could we have done it without any of you? No! And we are especially thankful for friends like LoLo who get our butts in gear and make us post pictures on the blog!

Four Months

Last week was a bit of a scary time for the Bartz family. Little B got sick and ended up really dehydrated. We unfortunately spent three nights in the hospital. Through this time we had huge amount of support from family and friends. Thank you everyone for your phone calls, visits, and food! This week, also, our friends came to town to stay with us. Sorry Snellmans! The best laid plans of mice and men often go astray. Here are some photos the day after B got home, on her four month old birthday.

What is this?

Yesterday Brinnon was introduced to an "exersaucer". I'm not even sure if this is what they are called, but whatever it is, B really enjoyed it.

Tenzy's Birthday Party

My good friend Tenzin turned two this past week. We celebrated her birthday with lots of balloons, party hats, good food and good company. I had a lot of fun, being held by a lot of wonderful people and hanging with Tenzy's brother Rilo. Rilo is the cute boy laying beside me in the picture below, he is one month older than me.

Happy Halloween

I'm a LadyBug!

My mom 'eating' my belly, making me giggle!

"Get me out of this darn outfit....I'm done!"
My first Johnny Jump Up experience...I think I like it!

Chinny Meat

Brinnon has changed so much just in a short month. She has become this sweet, funny, and smiley little person when she is awake. Her body is much more solid and she can finally hold her head up. Last week she actually giggled when I 'ate' her neck. Must be genetic.

There aren't many times in life that a double chin can be deemed 'cute', but when you are three months old it's absolutely adorable. Isn't it? Hopefully Brinnon won't care I showed this to everyone...I just thought it was great. Also, this first photo is for Auntie Chrysta. Do you see a resemblance to all of my baby/toddler/teenage/adult pictures? Ha Ha!
