Kilps come to town!

I had to work the first night the Kilps got into town. This particular week, I had to work 3 12hr shifts in a row, luckily for me, it was during day light savings, so we were trying to push Branko's bedtime a little bit later to make the transition easier, therefore, I got to see him the last night of the stretch and put him to bed. It was so fun to see his reaction after not seeing him for 3 days. We did get to FaceTime on the last day :) I wish I could upload videos a little bit easier on this blog, because I have a cute one of Branko's reaction when I got home that night. 



Auntie Karen got to squeeze in some snuggles with our rosy cheeks guy. 

"I'm confused, you look like my mom and Auntie Jodi."



We miss you Sydney and Rose!! The boys are getting close to outnumbering the girls!


Uncle Pat and Bennett!

Branko loves snuggling with Auntie Mary!




Branko will try to put anything in his mouth, even if it is his baby cousin.


Someone loves his bouncer!



I was off the Monday the Kilps were in town, so I went down to my parents to hang out for the afternoon. Curtis got to hold Branko, he did such a great job! Sometimes I see baby Curtis in Branko, I wonder if these two will look a like. 


Someone's been working at sitting up. He's been doing longer stretches at sitting up and getting so strong!


Our big boy! I had to go through his clothes again since he's outgrowing them so fast! I'm excited to see his measurements and percentiles at his next ped appointment in a few weeks! Next Friday, we're starting solid foods with him. Stay tuned!


Last night, our friends Kelly and Matt came over. They've always lived just a few minutes away from us, but now they're moving to the Appleton area :( 

Ben & Branko

First smiles!

Image
November 6th was our little guys first real smile, and boy does it make all the exhaustion worth it! Starting to bring his hands together :) Nora being put to work and getting to feed her baby cousin! More smiles with Auntie Jodi! My favorite time of day are mornings in bed with Branko, that’s if he slept well the night before. But he is extra smiley in the morning! And those blue eyes really pop with the lighting in our room! Fun filters with Nora! This was the first onesie I bought when I was pregnant. I was in Arizona with some girlfriends for the Waste Managemenr golf tournament back in Jan/early Feb. I didn’t realize it at the time, but the onesie is a tad girly with the ruffled sleeves! (hard to tell in this picture). I like to call this the “Bjorn” shirt. If you know, you know.  Since the masters were cancelled this year, it was rescheduled for November. Patrick and Branko have matching “Yama boy” shirts. Hidecki MatsuYAMA is a Japanese golfer who Oatrick is obsessed with. Him a

Christmas in Florida!

Image
 We were lucky to spend another Christmas in Florida with Patrick's mom, sister, and papa. These pictures uploaded in reverse order, but you'll get the idea. We had an early flight that left at 6:40 AM, yikes! I was nervous with how Branko would do, but he did fabulous waking up at 4AM and acted like it was a normal morning. We got to the airport and through the line for security when my ticket wouldn't scan. My husband thinks my birthday is June 20th and not June 25th! This isn't the first time he's done this. Last time was before our trip to Cabo (that we never got to go to due to Pat hurting his back), however, Patrick caught it the day before we were supposed to leave. Luckily, the airport wasn't too packed and we were able to get through the line again without any wait. We were very lucky to fly out before this "massive" snowstrom that was to come. Schools were cancelled-including colleges during finals week, allowing for kids to have 2 days extra

Ozarks 2023!

Image
We went to the Ozarks a week earlier than normal, and the weather was much more bearable this year. (Or maybe it wasn't as miserable being outside because I wasn't pregnant). The boys did great during the drive. They both were starting to lose it in St. Louis-which worked out because we were going to stop there for lunch anyway. Then, they lost it when we got to Branson-which worked out because we were there!  This photo is out of order, but Branko was Nora's shadow the whole trip! Thank you for taking him under your wing Nora! He sure looks up to you. When we arrived, we settled into our room. It was the perfect room for us-main level, corner room, with no neighbors on either side of us. Hopefully we didn't wake our neighbors above and below us!  The car was pretty tight, but only because our stroller takes up most of the space! Branko didn't nap the whole way down, but was very content watching shows on his tablet.  Our first morning, Mary was making bacon, and sh
