Bramell, Party of Five

Who says you can't go home?

We took a trip to Wynne last weekend. As usual, it turned into a family feast with almost the whole fam damily there. They don't know how to do a "small" meal. We had such a good time. There was lots of eating, baby kissing and even a little singing. Becca wore her cheerleader outfit for the first time, so we had to take lots of pictures. It's late, and this is my third post tonight so I am just picking out a couple to post. You know, I am not big on the bow head girly-girl thing, but dang she sure looks like a doll. I think she's wised up to the camera, though and is on strike from smiling.

Oh yeah, it was our first road trip with the baby and Fergie. Whew! I don't think we'll be doing that very often. Fergie and Becca are best buddies, though. Very entertaining.



More pics of the babe...



Because we just can't get enough of her...oh, and she found her feet this week so she thinks she's hilarious. And we think she is, too.

A Whirlwind of Visitors

Over the past few weeks, the Bramells have had a lot of visitors. We had a good time with all, and everyone got to love on Becca. It's been a while, but I'll try to remember some things about our visits. Keep in mind that lately I can't remember what I did yesterday so cut me some slack.

Our new friends The Bleakmans came from Arizona. They are clients of Lee's. They don't have any grandbabies (yet), so I think Becca is going to be their stand-in for a while after they move here. She and Janet really hit it off.




The same weekend Becca's Pop and her Uncle Bernie and (Marie) Aunt Annette came to visit, too. You had to be there to get that one, right Bernie? Anyway, we visited a lot and went up to Rogers to stroll around the new Pinnacle Promenade.





Sorry, we're trying!!

I know that we haven't posted in a long time, and everyone is so antsy and checking the blog. SORRY. We are just so tired and/or busy. I am really going to try to get a new one with pics up tonight. We have had company, been traveling, and Lee just listed a new house (our neighbors'). Anyway, the best news is little Becca has decided that she likes to sleep. The past two nights, she has slept for 10 hours! Yes, I'm serious. Yay for us!!

More later...

Shots-Schmots.....

Little Petey had her 4-month check up and shots this morning. She was a total rockstar!! She cried for just a bit when they stuck her, then stopped when Daddy picked her up to cuddle. I think she was just mad at the nurse. Or maybe she cried because the Hogs choked on Saturday. Who knows, could be either or both. I don't blame her either way.

Our big girl weighs 13 lbs, 5 oz. now and is doing great. She is in the 60% range for weight and height, which is just about average. Doc said we have a perfect, average baby. I'll take it!! We are going to start changing her back to the other (read: less expensive) formula and give it a couple of weeks to kick in. Then the next step will be to gradually get her off the Prevacid if all goes well.

That's all for now. Don't expect too much this week (Tracy) as we are going to be really busy. Lee has some clients coming to town at the end of the week, and I have to be out of town for work two days this week (day trips only this time). More later...

Go Hogs Go!!!


Let's eat some breakfast!



For some reason my mouth flies open when I get
excited. I can't help it!!


Uuhhh. Which way to the bathroom?


Look into my eyes!!


Game day preparation. I have to look good for those Razorbacks!!

Friday night Mom and Dad had a date!! We went out for dinner at the O.G. and then took in a movie at Fiesta Square. "Superbad" wasn't supergood but it did have some funny parts. We give it a 2.5 out of 5. Grandma watched Becca and they both had a good time too.
Kentucky is coming to town today and as you can see Becca is ready for the game in her Razorback onesie. She also has a little cheerleader outfit (pics coming soon).
Enjoy the pictures. TaTa for now.

Give the people what they want!!


Bath time is good. I like the warm water.
This is the worst part of bath time...getting out!!
Becca loves taking her bath. I don't think she has ever cried when she gets one. I am sure she will love it even more when she learns how to play with all the water toys she has.

We had an exciting time this weekend. Mom had to go to Little Rock for work on Friday and Saturday and Becca and Dad had a good ol' time just hangin' out at the homestead. We didn't do much but watch football, but we had fun doing it!!
