Overdue Update

There is no baby cuter than Brennan. It's just not possible. Everyday he gets about a thousand kisses because I can't resist those darling chubby cheeks! I think he has gone through a growth spurt. He seems so big all of a sudden! I have been putting off changing out his clothes to the next size because it makes me sad that he's growing so fast. But he's fitting all the 3-6month clothes now! I kept looking at them and thinking they were too big, but NOPE! My little man is big!
In the last few days, Brennan has started using his hands a lot more. He reaches out to everything now instead of just a few select toys. And he tries to get everything in his mouth! He isn't very good at it yet, which makes him very frustrated, but it's pretty cute to watch! There's a toy that I put on his tummy and when he realizes it's there, he gets an intense look of concentration and then uses both hands to get it up into his mouth! I just watch him and laugh because it's adorable. Brennan also clearly recognizes his bottle. When I have it ready and am getting ready to feed him, he stares at it very intensely. Once he reached out for it - I thought it might be by accident, so I moved it over and he did it again! He couldn't grab it or anything, he just pushed it around. Today he started sucking on his fingers while staring at his bottle, and that made him mad since he wasn't getting any milk!
Brennan is holding his head up well and he's even using his arms to hold himself up a little bit. He has a mirror that he loves to talk to, so I put it in front of him while he's on his tummy and he forgets to get mad for a few minutes. Shonna was babysitting him on Monday, and she thinks he rolled over! We're not sure if he rolled over or if Shonna just had a memory lapse though :). He hasn't rolled over for me yet, but he really tries! He starts to get one side up a little, and I think it scares him a little. His toy also scares him! He has a ball that lights up, talks, and rolls around on its own a little, and we put it in Brennan's lap and he got a really big pout! He did that with another loud toy too. Maybe we will stick to quiet toys!
Anyway, I am sure B will roll over soon, because that boy is strong! He loves to stand, and he can do it while just holding onto my fingers! Earlier I grabbed his hands to pull him into a sitting position, and instead he just stood up! He got strong legs when he was doing all that kicking in my belly! He'll be sitting soon, too. If you prop him up the right way, he can sit for 20-30 seconds. Although he never does it when anyone else is watching! So no one really believes me. But Brennan will show them soon! He's growing so fast, it won't be long before he's running around. :)
