Just wanted to share some recent videos. Walt is a major belly laugher… mostly with Chris. He laughs for me, but he guffaws for Chris 🙂 Here he is giving some slobbery kisses and laughing: Also, Walt learned how to successfully put his hands together and clap. I know, seems like a silly thing to…
Walt’s Hittin’ the Gym! (sans performance-enhancing drugs)
Last Saturday we took Walt to his first MyGym class. Like many similar places (Little Gym, Gymboree, etc), MyGym is a little tyke friendly place for the kiddos to run, crawl, pull, tumble, giggle, and so on. We weren’t quite sure what Walt would think about it. He’s a pretty social guy, but he also…
A Seuss-tastic Shower
Last Saturday I had the privilege of hosting a baby shower for my good friend, Renee. Renee and I have known each other since high school (Plano Dance Force, what?), and even though we went our separate ways to college (she went far, far away to Indiana University), we reconnected upon college graduation and lived…
Walt is Eight Months!
Technically, Walt has been eight months old for about a week and a half, but between work, school, (Mexico), and life, I’m just now getting to this post. There aren’t a ton of pics because Walt squirms and moves so fast that half of them turn out blurry. They even told us at school that…
Viva La Mexico (or "How to have fun on your vacation without missing your kid too much")
By the grace of so many things (grandparents, jobs, necessity, etc), Chris and I were able to take a mini vacation to Mexico last weekend. Being the travel brat that I am, I was still feeling cheated out of our Baby-moon last fall (recall I sprained my ankle and broke my foot…to the point of…
Happy 45th Anniversary, Mom and Dad
Last Saturday, my WHOLE family celebrated my parents’ 45th wedding anniversary. 45!? I just celebrated two and want a pat on the back. In 45 years of marriage, my lovely parents have had 3 children (all girls), 6 grandchildren, 4 step grandchildren, 3 sons-in-laws, and one dog. They raised us girls to be independent, strong,…
The Bruns’ Family Takes on NYC
What a post this will be! Many of you caught my numerous updates on Facebook, so I’ll try and provide some new and compelling information. Although Hurricane Irene was certainly a topic of conversation (and Facebook updates), it really didn’t run our entire trip. Let me start at the beginning: Here is Munks on his…
My Little Giggle Box
I learned two things a week ago. One, Walt thinks sneezing is hilarious. Two, our camera doesn’t take lengthwise videos. So, I’m sorry that this video is sideways. But, now we know 🙂 Chris was filming this and I was “fake” sneezing (and I did so silently as not to distract from the giggles from…

Walt is Seven Months!
So, Walt’s seven month’s old. Really? How in the world? It’s funny to think that seven months is 3/4 the way through a pregnancy. Just a year ago we were on the verge of finding out whether the little shrimp in my belly was a boy or a girl. Time is definitely flying. My friend,…
