Father's Day

We spent a beautiful Father's Day in Galveston this year. After a scrumptious lunch at Gaidos (our family's favorite seafood restaurant), we headed to the beach to let the boys swim for a bit. The weather was hot, but tolerable with the breeze. We all huddled under umbrellas to block the sun while Tyler and Greerson tried to dig holes large enough to bury themselves.

Brenna's Oooo Face

Since the day she was born, Brenna has made many expressions that have made us smile and laugh, but her oooo face is our favorite. She will sit with this expression on her face for minutes at a time while Dad and I laugh. Of course, the diaper change afterward isn't quite as funny.

Over 400 in One Month

Brenna is just over a month old and I've gone a bit camera crazy. At last count, I have 413 photos of Brenna in her iPhoto album. I'm sure this comes as no surprise to most of you. :) She is changing so quickly that I feel like I need to capture everything. I'm afraid of her growing up so fast, but when she does something new I'm reminded of all the fun that there is to come as she grows. Most recently, she has found her voice and seems to jabber constantly. She's also been more alert and recognizes both me and Stephen. It's becoming apparent that she is going to be a daddy's girl. She loves her daddy and thinks he is the most interesting thing in the world! She loves her mom too, but for different reasons. Right now I'm just the woman with the boobs and naps... and oh how we love those naps! When she is fussy and tired (or I'm fussy and tired) I lay her down on my chest and cuddle. We both wake up in much better moods.

Below are just a few of my favorite photos from Brenna's first month.
