It's been a gift to see the boys growing together. They are so full of love (usually) for one another. There have been a lot of hugs and kisses in our house this past week. I can't get enough.
Here's an update on the boys
Mitchell
- you are smiling all the time...you coo and almost laugh and love people
- you're sleeping like a champ...usually asleep by 9:30 and wake at 5 am!
- you've adjusted well to day care and enjoy the mobile in your crib there
- You are growing longer (taller) every day...right now you're in the 95th percentile
- You do not take a pacifier or suck your thumb...but that's okay, because you don't fuss much
- YOU ARE SO LOVED!
Connor
- You are getting so big, I can hardly believe it
- You can't wait for your birthday...but don't quite get the concept of time yet
- You are working on your letters...and getting better, but don't quite have them which frustrates you
- You love Mitchell and call him a cutie pie
- You are a big helper to mommy...you are eager to give a hand when asked
- You are a picky eater right now...you don't like foods that smell funny and are pretty much a vegetartian
- You love ham loaf, brocolli, baby carrots, bread, yogurt, and peanut butter
- You enjoy Thomas, Bob the Builder, and cars
- You love reading books...and like to "read" to your brothers
- You can ride a tricycle, but struggle with your bike with training wheels (you say its because we didn't get you the spider man bike!)
- You come up with some awesome "connor-isms" - like the people who stopped us while we were taking a walk to ask if we had all boys. You answered "yes...good for us!"
- You love to dress yourself without help and want to learn how to tie your shoes
- You are eager for kindergarten
- You are talking all the time
- You love Mitchell...you sit with him, hold his hand, give him kisses...sometime you just ask to see him
- You love going to school and like to make Miss Katy proud of you
- You have the cutest little run...little tiny steps with a bit of a prance
- You KNOW your alphabet...when mommy wears a t-shirt with letters on it, you name every one!
- You sang in front of the whole church last month with the older kids and did a great job!
- You like to wipe off the kisses mommy gives you...then asked for more kisses
- You like to snuggle
- You follow your brother Connor around..but still like to do your own thing when you want to
Sawyer
- You a barrel of joy and love wrapped up in a little boy
- You love to read books and often sit in the rocking chair and page through them yourself
- You can touch your head, feet, hands and belly when asked (when we ask where's your belly, you proudly pull up your shirt and show us skin!)
- You are starting to talk...you say momma, dada, thank you, i do it, please, no, no, no and no!
- You've said Mitchell clear as day...once
- You love to run, jump, play in the sand box and are magnetically attracted to puddles
- You love water and like to push your chair up to the sink to "do the dishes"
- You are a little aggressive...and have gotten your first time out in day care
- You love to smile and laugh...and be silly
Coming up next....our fun summer project! (No, it's not another baby!)
