Tyler and Brandon posing

4 months old! I just can't beleive it. Brandon is getting such personality. He smiles ALL the time, and is just a little ham. He loves to look at people, and has begun to roll over. He started at 3 1/2 months, and is very strong!
Brandon and his cousin Noelle. We stayed at Ed and Nicole's house the night before Andrew did the bike ride from Seattle to Portland.
Andrew getting up at 4am to head to the start line!
Great-Great Grandma Heck! She will be 104 in November! Brandon loved staring at her. He loves looking at new people!
Mommy and baby on the beach. Brandon is just now able to sit in this carrier. He gets all warm and toasty, and will fall asleep! This is the second time we've come to the beach this year. Brandon was 4 weeks old the first time we came, and now he is 4 months!

We absolutely love the beach. We come as often as we can! Next time, we're going to stay in Cannon beach, and see what that town has to offer. It's fun to look back at all the pictures of the kids in the sand, as well as our names and the dates. The most beautiful pictures come from the beach!

Grandma Rose and her grandbabies

Brandon rolls over at 3 1/2 months!

Brandon has been trying so hard to roll over! He turns his face toward the carpet and tries to get the rest of his body over! Finally, he does it! And the best part is, I got it on video! Andrew is talking to Patrick on the phone, and you can hear me getting all excited....while Patrick is wondering what in the world is going on at our house :)

June 2008

Daddy, Brandon, and Tyler at California Adventure

In June 2008, we took the kids to disneyland, California Adventure, and Seaworld. We went with our friends, Todd and Krista and their daughters, Katie and Deanna. It was an eventful week. Tyler is almost 5, and Brandon is just 3 months. The weather was supposed to be 80 degrees, but it was 97! Brandon was such a trooper, and Tyler always enjoys Disneyland!

May 2008

Andrew did Bloomsday this year, Brandon is 2 months, and Tyler is 4 1/2. You can see just how much these boys look alike! It was also my 28th birthday, and Mother's Day. Andrew surprised me by taking all of us to the Woodland Park Zoo! We had a great day!
