I have one Amazing Aunt

So I have to brag I have some of the best Aunts in the world especially my Aunt Jeanine who manages to make everyone a Christmas gift. This year it was PJs. She even gave Max some BSU attire and some booties hope you like the pictures.

Snow

We got a little bit of snow so when we woke up on the 26th I put some snow pants gloves and a hat on Emily and we decided to play. It was fun I enjoyed playing in the snow when we went inside she was angry that is the video.

it was a little snow and it was raining

Merry Christmas!!!

The Brown family had a wonderful Christmas we woke up at 6 AM. Opened up our stockings, our gifts from Grandma B and Trixie. It was so much fun Emily was quite the active participant. She is so much fun. As she was unwrapping Grandmas gift as soon as she saw the doll, she screamed BABY!!!. After that she held that baby all day long and pushed it even in the shopping cart Trixie and Jenny got her.

Then we came home had some lunch took a nap and then skyped with Mom, Dad, Jenny and Tony and unwrapped some presents.  Emily really loved unwrapping presents after unwrapping her she unwrapped mine and Max's too.I am thankful to everyone for making our Christmas amazing and maybe one year we we will be able to spend Christmas as one big family.

Max can Smile...Emily playing peek a boo

The first time max smiled was not for me Jason or Emily but for the nurse at Kaiser, but I finally got him to smile and we captured it in on Camera.

Also another adorable note Emily Loves to play the piano and play peek a boo. Yesterday I caught her playing peek a book with Max. It was adorable.

Merry Christmas

Last Saturday we attended the ward Christmas party we decided to take a picture with Santa  however Emily, Max and I were all up past our bedtimes so we looked sooo tired. The Christmas party we had snacks sang carols and saw Santa. It was nice and laid back we all just laid out on blankets out and sat on those.

Emily would not let Santa hold her. She really hates people in costume

Our now family of 4

DUCK, NC with the Wests

So Trixie traveled to Duck NC to see Michaels family for the week. Therefore we made the trip down Friday so we could see their family we figured it was a lot closer than going to Texas. It was a lot of fun it was awesome to see Leah and Emily play together and even fight over toys. Max on the other hand had a rough time and well so did Dallin, but I will show you a picture later. It was fun to see some of Michaels family as well we spend the afternoon with them and then we drove back home about Emily's bedtime.  Emily went swimming and hot tubbing and played at the beach. However we only have pictures from the beach which was fun. Joshua, and Dallin would stand on the beach as the waves crashed in then run away trying not to get wet. The water was oober cold. However, at one point Dallin got distracted by some dogs and did not run fast enough so he fell. So jason picked him up and he was not a happy boy. However, Jason also had some issues with the water he did not move fast enough away from the wave and his pants got soaked. So when we got back to the place everyone was staying jason hung his pants outside and then forgot them when we headed. Well here are pictures Enjoy!!

Kid update

My newborn Mr Maximus is getting bigger he has already grown 2 inches since he was born measuring in at 22 inches  (92.95 percentile) and he not quite at birth weight at 9 lbs and 9 ounces (75.84 percentile). Other than that he is developing normally.

Emily is adorable as ever and talking up a storm. She has started pulling her hair which is annoying, but I know she will grow out of it. She loves to dance and play cars. Her new favorite toy is helicopters and she points them out to me when we go on walks together. Overall she is getting bigger and healthier and stronger. She even tries to pick Max up sometimes and yells at me when I do not go to Max right away when he is crying. She also has a favorite parent which is Jason if he is home I am not seeing her at all, but jason loves how excited she gets when he comes home from work. So I guess  it is okay.

Grandma was here and Boy did we have fun and boy did I appreciate her  being. Max is not much of a night sleeper and she is super helpful. Also why she was here she was able to let Jason leave the house more and get some stuff he needed done. 

While Grandma was here she was able to experience hurricane Sandy...Preelection Virginia and all the wonderful adds. see the trees change colors...help me sew some things...and spend time with her grand kids. Emily loved playing cars with her grandma and blocks. Emily was very sad when she left cause she was not just stuck with good ol mom.

Emily really loved Grandma visiting cause with Grandma came M & Ms

This was often seen on Grandmas trip.. Max Crying

See Max is crying...otherwise this is an adorable picture

Hi everyone,
This is Jason on this post, so if this is wrong or not done correctly, it's my fault.
I just put a bunch of Max's first pictures.

Everyone is home and healthy now, Max's first night he cried pretty much the whole time. Let's hope he sleeps more in the night in the future. He loves to sleep in the sunlight during the day. We are very grateful he is happy and healthy. Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers.
