Sierra has the sweetest heart ever. Not that Brandon doesn't, but we didnt nickname him Bam Bam just for fun! Turns out, Sierra is exactly like how I was at this age, or so I've been told. She is shy, quiet, cautious, she is a total mama's girl, has separation and stranger anxiety, I cant even go to the bathroom without her crying! Go figure her first word is Dada! She is a really happy baby especially as long as she is standing. She is really chill and she is full of smiles which is so beautiful.
Brandon and Sierra do have a few common interests though like their love for Brandon's cars. I bought Sierra her own set of pink and purple cars, but she won't play with them. She only wants to play with her brothers, which he hates of course so we are working on that. They both also love playing in the water and both sleep on their tummies.
Sierra is still not officially crawling, not quite sure she will at all. All she wants to do is stand and cruise, chasing after her brothers cars that he has lined up all over the couch and coffee table and tries to steal them from him. She's not that fast at cruising yet, but getting faster everyday. She likes to think about each step before she makes it, unlike her brother who was running around the coffee table at this age and who fell 7 feet from a slide a few months ago. Brandon doesn't think before he leaps, he never has. He is all boy! Sierra can now even stand for a few moments all by herself. She doesn't even really like to sit much anymore, every time I put her down to sit, she cries cause she wants to be standing. But when she does sit, she's trying to scootch across the floor on her bottom. I guess that's another thing they have in common, will power and determination!
Nothing too exciting to report on Brandon's end this month, shocking I know. He did escape the house one day and started running off to the park all by himself, thanks to his Auntie A who was suppose to be watching him. I found him 10 houses down the road, hanging out all by himself. Not scared or afraid that he was all alone and lost. Our son has no fear and no separation anxiety! Seriously thinking about putting a GPS on him.
My family was in town for a long weekend to celebrate my sisters engagement to Dan. They are getting married in Montana in August this summer. Dan is great with the kids and I wish him luck joining our family! :)
Until next time, there will be more stories and more adventures to report. I can't wait!
