Ethan had lots of fun showing little Brandon around Disneyland for the first time!
Brian and I are loving life! We welcomed our first child, Ethan Wayne Groene on December 22, 2009. We are now happy to announce that Brandon Joseph was born on June 15, 2011! Parenthood, though it has it's occasional challenges, is absolutely incredible. Everyday we love getting to watch as these little miracles, our sons, grow and learn something new. God is AMAZING!
Our little Guppy
Ethan had a wonderful time this summer taking swim lessons. Last year there were 7 or 8 kids in his class; this year he was the only one so he had private lessons with two instructors! Ethan did wonderful and he loved the water. His favorite part seemed to be jumping of the side (by himself) and swimming underwater. Mommy and GG took turns with the little guy while the other was snuggling Brandon in the shade.
Auntie Kate, Uncle Tim and Cousin Ben
Auntie Kate, Uncle Tim and Cousin Ben came to visit on the same night Nana and Don Don left town. I'm not sure Brandon or Ethan know what it's like to be a family of four any more! We had lot's of fun playing outside, at the pool and destroying the house! We are so grateful Cousin Ben decided to visit us during his first trip to California! We miss you guys already and wish we lived closer!



Nana and Don Don's visit
We had such a great time when Nana and Don Don came to visit. They were such a big help while they were here! They were also able to spend lots of time with Ethan playing outside and time snuggling Baby Brandon.
Brandon - One Month
Brandon has been such a wonderful little one! He is a good sleeper and has a healthy appetite. We can't believe how fast one month has past! Nana and Don Don were here to celebrate the one month mark and to help Mommy and keep Big Brother Ethan company!
Happy 4th of July!
We had a wonderful 4th of July! Daddy got to drive a John Deere in the Claremont parade and Ethan, GG, Bops, Taya and Ella were able to ride in the back. Auntie Willa, Mommy and Brandon we're able to find a nice spot in the shade and watch from the sidelines! And to top it off we were able to celebrate GG's Birthday!
Family Photo Session
We have been enjoying Daddy being home these past two weeks and it sure helps to have an extra set of hands! Today we celebrated Brandon's 7th day of life as well as celebrating Ethan's 18th month! We are so blessed to have two wonderful boys!
