Brett used a Bumbo seat for the first time this weekend. A co-worker of mine let us borrow it. It does help him sit and he seems to enjoy it!
Also, he has been making the /m/ sound and we heard him say , "mom" as plain as day yeststerday when he was watching us put the treadmill together. He was able to sit in his high chair and watch us from the dining room. We propped the door to the garage open.
This is one of the letter m's I made for a rag-quilt letter swap that some of us are doing. We'll end up with a banner that reads, "Merry Christmas".

are awesome on the rocking chair!
I love rocking Brett to sleep at night. He fights sleep and feeds and then snuggles against me. I love his warm & soft milky breaths against my cheek when he's resting on my shoulder. Pure contentment...
Brett's reversible crocheted blankie by Nana Patti - love it!
Flannel rag-edged quilt by Shelly - love it!
Also, speaking of Pottery Barn Kids, I just bought this stocking on ebay (pictured above). The seller shipped really quickly and I can't wait to use this stocking for decoration this holiday season. I think I'll hang this one up in his nursery. I was looking on ebay at the Pottery Barn Christmas items, specifically stockings and tree skirts. I saw a lot of pre-monogrammed stockings from past years , so I did a quick search "pottery barn brett" and lo, and behold, there was the cutest reindeer ice skating with the name BRETT already stitched on it! SOLD!!! :)
Well, my intentions were good, but I've had no follow through...it's been almost a month since I put up that October post. I don't know where the time has gone!
Brett's first artwork!
Created with a very patient Monica.
I heard that she went through several sheets of black paper to get good prints.
Happy birthday to Grandpa Ross on Nov, 6th!
