The past SEVEN months!!!

So, having to take my new little brother back to the hospital was the pits,
but B Bear recovered quickly from RSV and bronchialitis
and was on oxygen at home for 2 wks.
I liked to call his oxygen his "glasses"Mommy couldn't be close enough to him those scary days in the hospital...Oh man, those sweet newborn sleepy days!
That new brother of mine just slept for 3 whole months!Gramma made sure to spoil me cause
my parents sure seemed sidetracked! Auntie Kris came to help Mommy out with us all!
I YUV HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Auntie Julie bestowed Baby Brother with this Monkey
and it's become our monthly marker of his growth!
(Remember my truck?)1 month (but the Monkey didn't make it in this one
because I was too busy thinking it was mine, mine, mine)2 months- gave the Monkey back-
Mom says it's the only toy that's completely his! 3 months- B Bear found his toes 4 months- have you noticed his amazing hair?!?!5 months- you can't tell by looking,
but he's going to start crawling any day!6 months- my brother is so stinking cute!7 months- becoming quite the blondie!Mom & Dad finally made it for professional pics when Brother was 2 1/2 months!And I decided to join them for the picture shoot
for exactly 1 out of 50 photos!
(Remember: I'm almost 2!)
Since my Mommy never sent out a birth announcement for Brother,
she wants you to notice this pic cause
that's the one she would have used :)
So true, poor kid #2!
We took a trip to WV in July so everyone could meet my new brother!
Here's Grandma Carrie holding her 2 little studs!Grandma had to give B Bear a bath just like me
when I was a little baby,
and just like Daddy when he was a little baby...
the tradition continues :) What's a trip to WV without the family ATV ride?
Enjoying the "cool" 90 degree evening temp!
Pap shows me a moose!
And here are just a couple adventures with my cousin, Chasers!Pushing Braddock at the speed of toddler (same as light!) Enjoying a ride at the ZOO!
And Hazel Grace will always be my best girl!Here's my brother B's favorite girl, Kruzie!
I may have to fight him for her, though! Mama and her boys!
Mama says that I didn't really move til I was like 9 months old,
but have I mentioned that Baby Brother
loves to move, move, move?
His motto is GO, GO, GO!!!
The rough-housing begins... when Brother Braddock first arrived,
Mom was upset during the Initiation-Into-Manhood-Process,
but she quickly learned that he YUVS (loves) it when we wrestle :)
Big Brother knows what's best!
We spend lots of time in our fancy schmancy double jogger!
But, Mama doesn't seem to jog much back there...hmmmm....

To Vashon, WA in July- Mama says it's the most beautiful place on earth.
I'll trust her on this one :)
Papa & Gramma with all FIVE of their grandkids (4 boys under 2!)
Baby Levi Eriksen was born exactly 4 months after Braddock
Gramma has him here!
Here's their happy family 0f FOUR! All 16 of the Kimball Clan grandkids!
If you can find me, you'll note I wasn't too happy about the hoopla involved...

there's about as many parents on the other
side of this shot trying to make us smile!
I turned T-W-O on August 6th!
I'm working hard to teach my brother the A B C's... he's on his way!
Remember my truck from Auntie Colettey that I was measured in my first 12 months?
Still put to lots of good use on a daily basis! Just a cute shot of my brother before I taught him how to
rocket launch his body out of that thing at like 4 months!
Sometimes when Mommy is busy babying my Baby Brother,
I make sure to take care of my very best friend, my Beary Bear!Teaching my bro all about the joys of TV!
Giving him a good rock! Just getting business done!
I YUV MY DADDY!
Donuts are our very favorite food at the Musilli house!
My hero, Joshua Snyder, passed on this BODOSHER
(bulldozer) to me! I YUV IT!
I pretty much yuv my yife if you can't tell!

I yuv my "new" bruver!
I yuv my friends!
I yuv my famiyee!
I YUV YOU for reading all about our yives!
