Christmas Part 2: California

We spent Christmas itself here in California. Of course Bryce was a big hit with the grandparents and got lots of attention.

Ah-gong & Ah-mah got him the cool Bumbo chair he's using above to practice sitting up. He also scored a couple of new holiday outfits. Above is one, and below is another.

Bryce's Uncle Ivan (Susan's brother) snapped some awesome pictures and the full album is here. Susan's photos (not nearly as good) can be viewed here.

Christmas Part 1: Utah

We had a great week in Utah; saw lots of family and friends but it was not too busy or stressful, even for being Bryce's first ever trip away from home. Two key events were celebrating an early Christmas with the whole Lindberg family, and attending Uncle Lance's wedding. As you can see, Bryce also took his first photo with Santa. Complete photo album is available here .
Coming up next: Christmas Part 2 in California!

Bryce's First Airplane Flight

We flew to Utah for Uncle Lance's wedding, and to celebrate Christmas with the Lindberg family. Bryce behaved wonderfully, and slept through the whole flight plus another hour afterwards. Stay tuned for more pictures from the trip.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Bryce's first Thanksgiving: note size of 11.5 pound baby vs. 14 pound turkey.

The full Thanksgiving album is here

Bryce hopes you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! Now bring on Santa!

November 12 - Bryce is 2 months old

Sorry these posts are falling behind a bit - is anyone reading this anyway? if so, please make a comment or drop us an email, so I know I'm not doing this purely for my own entertainment! Anyway, back to the official subject of this blog: Here's what he looks like when he falls asleep sitting up.

And here's some proof he smiles and giggles - although he sounds more like a honking goose.

Nov. 6, 2006 - Welcome Adam!

Last week, Bryce met his new buddy and future playmate, Adam, who was born on Nov. 1 and is exactly 7 weeks younger than Bryce (oh, and his parents are Helen and Marc, in case anyone was wondering.) Here is Bryce (on the right), eagerly waiting for Adam to grow up (and wake up!) so they can hang....

Halloween Pictures and Video

Thanks to Kate for the outfit and Melissa for the shoes. I tried to narrow down the pix but these are just too darn cute so I have to show them both!

And here's a bonus video - sorry it's sideways! (operator error, oops)

More 1 month faces - and a home video

Sleeping


Smiling - though this is probably from gas, not a "real" smile.


Of course, he won't smile on video, as evidenced here! Click on the "play" arrow to play the video.

October 12, 2006 - I'm one month old!

Bryce is now one month old and much more alert than he was when he was born. He is also finally on track growth-wise, putting on almost a pound in the last week and a half (and he is 1.5 inches longer than when he was born. ) Here's a selection of his funny faces.

October 3, 2006 - Helping Mommy with My Birth Announcements

Welcome to my new blog!

My birth photo gallery is here.
My birth story:

Bryce arrived on his due date, but not without a fight (apparently he preferred his previous home inside Mommy.) Mom was induced, and labored from 3 AM until 10:30 AM, then pushed for 3+ hours, but Bryce still refused to emerge. So he was born via c-section, and dragged out kicking & screaming by the doctor. Everybody's home now and doing fine (well, Mommy & Daddy are rather tired), and Bryce is looking forward to meeting you all soon!
