The boys

I know it has been a while since I posted...maybe 7 months?!?  Things have been non-stop with the addition of Ryan. He had his 6 month check-up this week (a couple of weeks late due to a double ear infection).  He weighs 18 pounds and 1 ounce. He is 26.5 inches long. He is in the 50th percentile for height and weight. His doctor told him, "Dude, you're boring" and then told me, "Mommy, boring is good." 

He can roll over front to back and back to front. He can get up on his arms and toes when he is on his tummy but hasn't quite figured out how to bring his knees up under him.

He has the best smile...his entire face lights up. He adores Jacob and thinks everything he does is hilarious. He has also started saying "da da da da da."  He also got his first two teeth (on the bottom) this month.

Jacob currently has strep. He has been pitiful. He's also had to do a breathing treatment and use his inhaler because his oxygen level was low.

His imagination is as wild as he is. Some days he's a firefighter or a pirate. He likes to pretend he's a cowboy or a puppy. He still LOVES Toy Story 3 and everything to do with it.

He can write his name and Ryan's name. He can write all of his abc's and can recognize them. He can do simple addition and subtraction. He loves movies and reading books. He's playing Sunday Soccer again this spring and is much improved from the fall. He scored the first goal for his team this past week! 

My life is as full as my heart. I am truly blessed!
