NEW VIDEOS

Ok, I managed to get both boys to go down for an afternoon nap, so I thought I'd play around with YouTube to try and add some videos to our blog. I actually figured it out...I'm so proud of myself. Scroll down and look at the right side of the blog. You'll see the headline VIDEOS. Be sure to check them out when you get a chance.

A chance to redeem yourselves

Ok...we decided to have more fun with our blog readers!!! Try again to guess who is who!!!!!

It doesn't really matter who is who...because they are both adorable!!!

The results are in!!!!

I couldn't wait any longer to post the results to the Guess The Danko game. I thought it was interesting that everyone who posted a comment guessed the exact same answers. Well guess what...EVERYONE WAS WRONG!!!!!! The first one was Connor and the second one was Brandon. I can't believe we tricked everybody. We told the boys and here is what they had to say...


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

WE TRICKED YOU!!!!! The boys are smiling more and more and we love to see it. Brandon is still being colicky in the evening, but I think we're managing it better now. I bought some Gripewater at the organic food store that has Fennel in it. It's supposed to settle their little tummies. We haven't tried it yet, but have it on hand just in case.


Oh yeah..in the midst of one of Brandon's crying fests, he rolled over in his crib for the first time on Wednesday. He'll roll over from his tummy to his back with no problem whatsoever! He did it 2 more times on Thursday as well. He seems to only do it when he's crying, but it still counts.

Can you "Guess the Danko"

Strangers ask us if the boys are identical all the time. They are really surprised when we say NO and then wonder how we can tell them apart. Eric and I can tell just by looking at them!!! They have very different personalities, cries, and size!!! How good are YOU at telling them apart? Leave a comment trying to guess which is which. I'll give everyone about a week or so, then I'll post the answers in another blog post. DO NOT CHEAT and look at comments other people have left. GOOD LUCK!

Oh yeah...I expect PERFECT SCORES from the grandparents, aunt and uncles. hehe



All Smiles

The boys are really starting to smile at us and their toys. Connor was smiling at the home health nurse today and actually laughing at himself! It was SOOO cute. He'll open his mouth really wide, squint his eyes and laugh. I love it when they are in a good mood!!!!! We're still trying to really capture Connor's smile...this isn't the best one, but he's still a cutie pie




Brandon hasn't smiled much lately due to his fussiness. So whenever he does smile, it makes us breathe a sigh of relief. We think his medication for reflux is what's making him fuss. We're weening him off of it to see if he has outgrown the reflux and stops being fussy.


Bath Time

Bath time happens all the time around here. Either they spew on themselves, are fussy and need a bath to calm down, or it's just their bath day. Brandon likes to take showers with me, but when I can't fit that in, he's cool with a good old bath!


Connor fusses as soon as his body hits the water, but then loves it. I LOVE these bath sponges...what an awesome invention. THANKS TO AUDRA for those!

Can't we all just get along????

I make sure to have a little cuddle time with the both boys each day. It usually consists of a nap on the couch! I need the nap and so do they! The LOVE to snuggle...especially Connor.





Here they are really "exploring" each other. I think Connor is trying to steal Brandon's pacifier to make him mad. Brandon has been extremely fussy over the last week and Connor knows that if he pulls out that pacifier, Brandon will definitely cry. A few moments later...he did just that!
