::Bathtime, and Crawling on all 4's ::

We haven't had any bath time pictures on here since his very 1st bath!! Brogan loves his bath/ or shower with mom. He loves the water! We don't use his baby bath tub sling anymore because he can sit up, and he loves the freedom, he tries to crawl around in the bath tub, and now that he's pulling up he tries to climb out! But most of the time he will contently sit and play with his washcloth frog and his duckie and splash splash splash....





At bath time, we sing our little song...Splash Splash Splash get all clean!!! Wash Wash Wash get all clean... Brogan loves music so we sing lots of songs all the time!





Now after bath time tonight, I thought it would be funny to get on the floor and video tape what it looks like from his view when Brogan is "flopping" (crawling) around on the floor since he is so mobile now... Can you see what I didn't in this next video?!?!! My mom pointed it out to me when I uploaded it onto the computer, another first......




THATS RIGHT!!! HE WAS CRAWLING ON ALL 4'S!!! I totally missed it while trying to get him to look back at me! Well time to put the little Monster to bed... NIGHT EVERYONE!! I promise next time it won't take so long to update!

::Introduction::

Although his life was unplanned Brogan has brought so much joy to ours. We found out we were pregnant May 21st, 2007, and what a shock that was. Looking back on that time now, as i look into his big blue eyes, I don't think we ever could have known what happiness he would bring with his arrival. I worked right up until my water broke at 4:40pm on January 15th. My heart was beating so fast as Buddy met me at my house (after i had to call and pull him out of an interview to let him know it was "TIME", he got the phone call he had wanted! Since I was scheduled to have an induction on the Thursday following and we both really wanted it to happen naturally. We got to the hospital between 6 and 6:30 and i was dilated to 5. After I got the epidural around 8:30 -9 I dilated to 10 within the hour, but was so numb that I could not feel my contractions to push. Poor Brogan was stuck there for another 3 hours with his head just trying to come out! We turned down the epidural, and when I could feel enough to push, it only took 1 hour and our baby boy was delivered into this world by his Daddy and Grandma Wood at 1:51 am on January 16th 2008. Grandma R and Aunt Chelsea and Aunt Brooke were also there to share that special moment and capture it with photographs and video. The rest of the family came in shortly after. What an amazing experience this has been...
