8 Months!

I feel like I just barely posted his 7 month post, summer just goes by so dang fast. We've had a busy month with going to Delta and Blanding, having visitors stay with us, and Brew's surgery. Cheyna had her baby Aiker last time we were down and now I feel like Brew is a straight up toddler after seeing them together! This month Brew:

Is eating solids soo much better. He'll down a jar of squash in about 2 minutes.

Has started giving high fives and saying mama.

Loves all "real" things more than his toys, like glasses, cups and shoelaces.

Still wearing size 3 diapers.

Wearing 12-18 month clothes.

Has both his bottom teeth and getting one of his top one now.

Still napping like a champ (2 long naps a day) but sleeping like crap at night.

Got tubes in his ears.

Loves swimming. I'll sit him on the edge and count to 3, and at 3 he lunges forward to me, it's the cutest thing.

Loves the swing and slides at the park.

WILL NOT wear shoes or hats, has a complete come apart until he rips them all off.

Gets regular hair cuts, the clippers still scare him a little but we get through it.

Loves to be held and jump, he could do that forever.

Trying to figure out how to crawl. He goes from sitting up to all fours but can't figure out for the life of him how to move.

His ear tube surgery went really well and I feel like it's already helped him so much.  The worst part was the 10 hours before surgery when he couldn't eat. Thanks freaking heavens for his favorite shows that kept him somewhat occupied.  We went to Dr Park at Primary Children's and he did so good. From the time they took him from me and then told me it was done it was like 10 minutes, it was awesome. He ended up not having to get a IV cause he reacted really well to the basso that was good.  After surgery we had to put drops in his ears for 3 days and that was such a pain, cause if you know Brew you know if he doesn't want something he'll knock it right out of your hand ha so it was a struggle getting those drops in. His doc said he had lots of fluid and that he basically has probably had a lingering ear infection for months...so sad. Hopefully that's all behind us now!

Brewer Boy at 7 Months

I'm kinda late on the post this month just because so much has been going on. Dal started his new job, we got our town home all under control, and we've been in Blanding and Delta quite a bit. This last trip to Blanding wasn't too awesome though cause Brew ended up in the ER in Monticello because he was throwing everything up. He ended up having strep and got the Rocephin shot and then got another ear infection and will be getting tubes in the next few weeks. Poor kid has had a rough go when it comes to his dang ears.  This month he:

Weighs 20 pounds

Still doesn't love solids but will eat them so much better if I let him "feed himself" aka make the biggest mess on the planet. The spoon just ends up being the coolest toy to him ha.

Sleeping sucky again, gets up a couple times a night to eat

LOVES to watch the cars go by in our backyard, we have to do this multiple times a day

Loves swimming and stroller rides. Basically anything outside will keep him happy all day

Can sit up on his own! He will fall over every once in awhile but he foes really good now.

Has one of his bottom front teeth

Gets regular hair cuts while it's thickening up

Loves to watch Baby Einstein or the Pbs kids shows. Today he was pretty into the x games and nascar ha so he just really likes TV these days

A pic for Aunt Monie in the onesie she got him

Glued to the X games

And watching Nascar today

Feeding himself

Watching cars with dad

His 7 month pic (we lost his Aggie bear in the move so we're moving his pics to his chair now)

Playing with Aunt Sagy in Blanding

He is at such a fun age and I'm getting excited for him to start crawling and all that fun stuff.  We are really liking Herriman and are loving being done with school and living normal lives! It's about freakin time ha.

Brewer is 6 Months!

I feel like so much has happened since I blogged last month.  I don't feel like Brewer is a baby anymore, he's turning into a "real boy" as Sagan would say ha. He is so fun and is getting such a personality. We had a crazy month traveling all around for Dal's interviews and visiting family, and he was so good in the car. 

This month he:

Had his third set of ear infections, it has been horrible but hopefully that's the last of it for awhile

Started eating most baby foods, and doesn't love them so much ha

Wears size 3 diapers and size 12 month clothes

Loves peekaboo, his play yard, his walker, and LOVES Baby Einstein videos. We catch him cracking up at the dressed up babies all the time ha it's so funny.

Is 28 inches long (97%)

Is 18.7 lbs (75%)

Not sleeping through the night anymore, waking up twice to eat usually

Naps every 2 hours for 1-2 hours

Loves to eat his own toes and anybody else's toes he can find haha

My phone, his wipes, his monkeys and the remote are his favorite toys

Once he gets laughing he cracks up over everything and gets hiccups after

Loves to be outside on the grass or in the swing

We get the mail everyday and he has to always hold a letter on the way inside ha

The last pic is from he Scotty McCreery concert at USU, it was the first time we have left Brewer and I cries for a sec but then I was good haha.  So now Dal has graduated FINALLY, and has accepted a job as an engineer for Kennecott. We are moving into a town home in Herriman in the morning and are pretty excited to start "real life"!

5 Months!!!

Brewer boy is growing so dang fast, it's crazy! He's five months old today and everyone that sees him thinks hes like 9 months old. He's quite the chunker, but it's pretty spread out since he so tall.  

Right now he is:

Wearing 9-12 month clothes and 12 month pajamas

Wearing size 3 diapers

Sleeps from 8:30-5:30, then eats and goes back to sleep til around 7

Has gotten over a double ear infection which sucked

Eats 6oz every 3 hours

Is starting to laugh really good and it is the cutest thing

Loves to FaceTime, mostly because he can see himself in the camera

Hates rice cereal, but does okay with vegetables

Can roll from front to back, and back to front but won't do it very often

Loves to lay on his back on the floor, still working on trying to get him to like sitting up

Probably around 17 pounds now

Sleeps for 1 hour every 2 hours

Still has kind of a flat head on he back, so we're working on that

Loves to be outside in the stroller and see what's going on

Picture overload:

Mimi, Bryir and Brew last time we were in Blanding

We didn't have a baby bath in Blanding so we had to improvise and put him in a bowl haha

How I found them one night while they were waiting for me to get ready 

Rice cereal...none made it into his mouth haha

How i found him after a nap one day

Always so happy after a good nap

Best buds

Crashed out in St George

Loves tummy time on my lap

His 5 month pic, clearly wouldn't stop wiggling!

Brew has been so much fun, he is such a good, chill boy and makes my days so fun (for the most part) haha. Dallan is busy applying and interviewing for jobs, and as of now it looks like we'll either stay up in the valley, go to Springville or Salt Lake area. He's waiting to hear back from a few companies so we'll see where we move after graduation in a month! This weekend we are going to Salt Lake for another interview, so Sagan and Nate are gonna come stay in a hotel with us and take Brewer swimming for the first time, and them go to a BYU football BBQ with my parents, should be a fun weekend!

4 Months Old

I feel like this last month Brewer has changed so much and gotten so old. Dal says he's getting to the "fun" stage but I think he's always been fun! He's crashed out right now from his shots, he did so good but it's always so dang sad.  Luckily Dal could come this time so I didn't have to watch. 

This month he:

Sleeps without being swaddled and now sleeps in his crib! I just lay him down, give him his binkie and he usually goes right down.

Has found his toes and his crotch region ha.

Loves going on stroller rides when it's warm

Sleeps from 9-5 ish, then eats and goes back down til 7 or 7:30 ish. Naps every hour and a half all day long.

Loves to sit up like a big kid and check out what's going on in the house.

Always has his ball, hr usually holds it while he sleeps.

Figured out how to take his bink out but can't put it back in.

Wears mostly 6 month clothes and 6-9 month pjs.

Wears size 2 diapers.

Loves to FaceTime people, he gets so amused.

Still likes tummy time and will roll over without really knowing he's doing it.

Loves bath time and getting his ears cleaned out ha,weird I know.

Hates if I leave him to go into another room. Has an absolute meltdown, so we're pretty much attached at the hip.

Is getting quote long for his car seat.

At his appointment he was 15.12 lbs (75%), 26.5 inches (90%).
