9 months old!!!

Hello Family and Friends- Can you believe that Bronson is a whole 9 months old? For once I am actually able to get this email out on the actual day of his 9 month birthday. Today was a beautiful day outside and we took full advantage of the beautiful weather to get some outside pictures taken of Bronson in the front yard. Kyle is working like crazy on our new fence. We are so happy that we are finally able to start this project. We want our whole back yard to be enclosed and before we only had three sides covered. We hope that this finds all of you happy and healthy. We are sure enjoying this wonderful weather and watching our son grow into such a wonderfully happy baby. Here are some recent stats of Mr. Bronson:

• He weighs 15 pds, 13 ozs


• He is almost 25 inches tall


• HE CAN SIT UP ALL BY HIMSELF!!!!! (Major accomplishment)


• He has started eating solids and loves green beans and bananas


• He is spending lots of time with family lately and loves all of them so much


• He decided after spending the day with Olivia that he is now a paci (pacifier) baby (not so much before)


• No he doesn't crawl, he could care less


• No new words, but the most amazing thing of all he can do patty cake all by himself


• He is now on the tail end of his 1st bad cold since the NICU, he has a great immune system and has done much better than mommy with this cold. I am so happy that he is so healthy.

Super sweet

Please pass along...

So I am asking all of my fellow bloggers to please put a link on your page to my blog. I know that some of your hesitate in linking it because of personal information. I appreciate your concern, but would love for you to share my blog. I am going complete public with it in hopes to share our story of Bronson and also to get the word out about our Jackson Deets Memorial Fundraiser. I will be doing mass advertising this next week and appreciate all help in getting the word out. I am still in desperate need of items for this event. Several people have asked when they have to have these items done and that would be before October 29, 2008. I will pick up all items prior to October 31st. If you are in the Corvallis area I will be making a trip down that way for Bronson's appointments so I will pick them up then.

Thanks again for all of the support. I am super excited about doing this event. In another note the walk for our March of Dimes team is the last Saturday in April. I have set up our team and will be getting more information in December.

Bronson Can Sit Up

Yes, that is right. It is official. Bronson can sit up all by himself. We let him sit alone for over 15 minutes and he stayed up. I had to make a page just for this occasion.

Tonight I started a new hobby, digital scrapbooking. I will never begin to get good like my dear friend Kelleigh, but this is lots of fun. This new site that I found has everything...even the program. If you want to see the pictures bigger just double click on them.
