Little man has ventured into the world of REAL FOOD! First stop....sweet potatoes. He LOVES them! Which is no surprise since we do too. I have to appologize for the bib. We knew he was going to make a mess, so I figured he could destroy one he doesn't wear anymore. I appologize for the quality of this video. It came off my cell phone. I will try to get a better one tonight. Little man is on the move now, no stopping him. He loves playing and moving all over the place.
Mr. Brevyn is such a big boy now. He got his first tooth and we started rice cereal this week. At first the taste didn't appeal to him, but now he eats it like it's going out of style. Being "independent," he tried to "help" feed himself. This however simply resulted in making a bigger mess, and that stuff is sticky! He is doing great so far.
During our fantastic trip Brevyn got to meet some of the Taylor Family. He seems to be the life of the party. Aunt Jenny rocked him to sleep in his new blanket. We have now dubbed it the "Magic Blankie" because it only takes about 2 minutes for him to fall asleep with that thing. We had such a great time and can't wait for him to meet the rest of the clan.
As part of our visit to NY we went to see Matt's cousin Erik play basketball. He plays for the Chittenango Bears. They were playing against Bishop Grimes in a Coaches vs. Cancer tournament. Everyone was cheering Erik and his team on. In the end Brevyn was pooped and unfortunately Bishop Grimes won. 
The day after Christmas we went to see our extended family. Brevyn and Cooper Kohanski got to have their first play date (the first of many.) They didn't quite know what to make of each other at first. Then they hugged, looked at crazy puppies and laughed. I think they even told each other a few secrets. 
We spent Brevyn's 1st Christmas in Syracuse. We started off at Matt's family. Everyone enjoyed all the food and desserts. Brevyn however, decided that he would rather spend the day napping with Aunt Jill. Next, we went to my mom's family Christmas. Brevyn, Natalia and Joshua made out like bandits. Natalia kept telling everyone how "soft" Brevyn was. Too cute. Brevyn got a jumperoo and it by far has been his favorite thing. Brevyn's 1st Christmas was a memorable one (even if only Matt and I will be the ones that remember.)
