My baby boy's growing up!

Bransyn is THREE months old today! I can't believe it.. time really does go by soo fast when you have kids. We're having soo much fun with him though! I swear, everyday he gets cuter & sillier (: I'm not sure how much he weighs this month, since he does not go to the Dr again until 4 months.. but I'd guess somewhere in the 13lbs range? He still fits in the under 15lb diapers pretty good.. so I'm pretty sure he's under 15! hahah. Anyways, this past month he has been more interested in his toys. He absolutely LOVES his ABC Leap. Everytime I turn it on for him, he gets this big ol' smile on his face & sometimes he even sings along with it! The other day, my mom opened one of his rattle toys, it's a doggy, & he thinks that's pretty neat (: He can keep hold on it pretty good.. but when he shakes it, sometimes he hits his head with it. hahaha, it's only funny cause he doesn't even act like it phases him. He now sticks EVERYTHING in his mouth. I can't put a blanket on him without it going right into his mouth shortly after. He's constantly got his hands in his mouth. Sometimes when I let him play with my hands, they end up soaked with drool. (: We had him & Camden laying next to each other earlier today, & Cam was putting his hands in Bransyn's face.. & Bransyn even stuck those hands in his mouth! haha. It was pretty funny. He is now a drooling machine! It's crazy.. I'm kinda scared that he's gonna start teething soon, since he drools soo much :S Hopefully that's not the case though! He still loves to stand up. He can now pull himself up to his feet when you hold his hands. & He walks with help, too! (: Still hates tummy time.. but we do it anyways. haha. Hopefully since he hates it, he'll teach himself to roll over. I've been trying to help him.. but I don't think he's ready to quite yet. Oh well, he'll do it on his own time (: He giggles now. & jabbers allll the time. I love it. He's almost completely off of the bink.. by his choice, not mine. He's not a very big fan of it anymore, unless he's reallly tired. Which is good in a way.. but also kinda sucks that he has now turned to sucking on his hands instead. haha. He's doin very well & learning new things daily. Oh, & it has now been confirmed.. he is a little bit of a mama's boy. haha. I'm sure it's just cause he's with me 24/7 (: I love it though. Anyways... that's a little bit of an update on our big 3 month old boy!

Valentines Day & New Car


Valentines Day;

..Daddy & Mr. Bransyn..







..Our family..
..Me & my buggy..

Our cute boy on his First Valentines Day!!! ♥


Our Valentines Day was pretty good! Ryan had to work until about 1 :( So Me & Bransyn just hung out all morning with Ashlyn. Than, when I was in the middle of getting ready, I hear the dog barking like someone was at the door. So, thinking someone was, I go over & look out the window. & there was this huuuge thing of flowers sitting on our courtyard wall.. & no one around. I had noo clue who they were for. My sister's sitting there telling me she think's they're from Ryan, but I was like..nooo, he's not even off work yet.. they're probly from Riley! Well, little did I know.. Ryan had called Ash & told her he was bringing me flowers & to keep me away from the door. So she knew all along that they were mine.. just trying not to give it away. hahah. So I brought them in, & I was still not convinced they were for me. So like 10 minutes later, Ryan comes home & I was like, uhh are those flowers from you?! & he was like, No? what flowers? Then I felt stupid for even asking if they were from him. haha. Then he pulls these 3 little packets out of his pocket, & was like here hold these. & I look to see what they are & it's the stuff for the flowers. haha. He's such a dork, I love him (:



The beautiful 4 dozen roses he got me! (:





At about 4, we went to Outback Steakhouse for our Valentines Day dinner. We went to our good friends Sam & Candyce's house that night & hung out with them! It was alot of fun & I miss hanging out with them alll the time :( But before that, right after we left dinner, I was telling Ryan that when we get a new car, I would like to have a small SUV, cause it would be a lot easier with the baby. So he's like, 'We can go look at some right now if you want! Or we can wait til we get home & look online?' & I decided it would be funner to go look. (: We went over to the Saturn dealership cause I like the Saturn Vue's. On our way there I told him 'Remember.. we're just LOOKING!' (remember this part) So we get there, & we're looking at the Vue's. He asked me what color I liked, & I said White. So the guy comes out & Ryan was asking him about the car & everything. Than we decided to go look at what Hyundai had since it was right next door. We didn't like their small SUV's & the guy was a typical salesman & soo pushy to get us in there. So we just left & went back to Saturn. Since we liked the Vue & that salesman better.. (: we went & test drove the 6 cylinder Vue.. since Ryan's all about power, haha. & I pretty much LOVED it! (: When we got back, we went in to see how much the monthly payments would be & see if we could get approved for it. The V6 one was like 42 dollars more a month, so Ryan gave in to the 4cylinder one & they let us take it home until Monday while they waited for the approval & for us to make the final decision. We totally had our minds set on getting it, but we really did like the V6 better.. so we were gonna switch when we went back in on Monday. Welll, I started to not be so sure about having such a big car payment, so I told Ry we should go look at some other cars to see if I could find something I liked for cheaper. Monday we went back into Saturn & we were approved for the $30,000 V6.

This is the 4 cylinder Saturn Vue that we got to bring home.. looks just like the
one we were gonna get though! It's cute, huh?!



But we were wanting to go over to the Mazda dealership since I liked the Mazda 3 & it would be $10,000 cheaper. We went there & I looked at 2 different 3's. The first one was red & a manual. Well, I'm not big on red cars & I can't drive manual. So he took me over to look at the automatic one, it was gray. I test drove it. I liked it. I wanted it. Ryan talked them down to a good payment for us, & we got it! 2009 Gray Mazda 3! I'm soo excited & I looove it! (: I do feel bad though, cause the guys at Saturn were awesome & very helpful & I would of much rather bought this car from them.

Remember when I said that I told Ryan were were just 'looking'? Yeah right. That didn't work out so well. haha, atleast now we have a reliable car for our son, that's all that really matters!
Here are some pictures of my cute new car! I have to take it in today to get it detailed & schedule the appointment to get the windows tinted.. than it will be even CUTER!

It's so cute, right?!
I'm so happy that we finally got a new car &
I don't have to be freaked out everytime

to do this kind of stuff for us!
