Aaron Walking!!

Aaron turned 10 months old on April 3rd and has been walking ever since...getting better and better every day! Here is a little video of him.

Aaron Giggling

Was playing with Aaron while he was having a snack. I love that laugh!

Aaron Crawling

Here is a little video of Aaron crawling. He is all over the place these days. He pulls himself up on everything he can and cruises along the couch. I have a feeling he will be walking by 10 months old if not sooner. He's got to keep up with the others.

Aaron is 7 Months Old!

Can't believe Aaron is 7 months old already...where has time gone? He is already starting to crawl around. If he wants something, he finds a way to get to it...whether on his hands and knees or army crawling it. He still only has 2 teeth, but I think more are getting ready to sprout through. He is such a good eater. He definitely loves his food. Last time I weighed his a week ago, he was at 19 lbs. He's about 3-4 lbs. heavier than Ethan was at this age. I LOVE the chunky thighs and those kissable cheeks!

Time Flies!

Time if going by SO fast...has it been a month since my last post?

Well...let's see if I can remember what happened.

Abby got her first pair of glasses. She only needs them for reading, but still, she looks so darn cute in them.


She has also lost both of her front teeth...which makes eating corn on the cob interesting for her. She is doing fabulously in school and was awarded "Student of the Month". She does make us SUPER proud...even on the days when listening is a challenge for her. :)

Ethan is growing fast and is still my super skinny little man. I tell ya, Aaron will out weigh him soon. He is just SO active that he burns right thru whatever he eats. Poor boy is getting over a cold...I'll be happy when all the snot is gone. Nothing like kids with crusty noses...EW!!

Aaron is growing by leaps and bounds. He had his 4 month appt last Friday with the doctor and he is doing very well. He is currently 16 lbs. and in the 69th percentile for his weight...78th percentile for length and 85th percentile for his big ole noggin. His doctor told me to go ahead and stop his night time feedings which I am looking forward to, but then again I am not. I will be happy for him to sleep all thru the night, but nervous about what it will do to my milk production. He is still exclusively nursing...no bottles. Nor will he take a bottle if you try to give him one. He will just turn his nose to it. Which makes it fun to try and leave him with anyone if Bob and I want to go out on a date. I am very proud of myself for making it this far with nursing. With Abby and Ethan I only made it 2 months with them...working and nursing makes it hard. We are also currently moving Aaron over to his crib from the bassinet. He fits head to toe in the bassinet right now, so he needed to be moved. Bad thing is the bassinet is in our room and the crib is in the room he and Ethan will be sharing. Since Aaron still doesn't sleep thru the night, it will make things interesting. So, we decided to move Ethan in with Abby temporarily until we get Aaron on a better sleeping schedule. We are starting to ween his night feedings and teaching him how to self sooth so if he wakes up in the middle of the night, he can put himself back to sleep. Wouldn't be that big of a deal like it was with Abby or Ethan if he was going in his own room vs. sharing a room. I am looking forward to the day he sleeps thru the night and all is "normal" again. I miss sleeping thru the night.

Bob is doing well...busy as always. I feel for him with all he does. He just had a real estate closing about 2 weeks ago and still has 2 more in escrow and 1 more buyer looking. So he is a busy beaver. Which unfortunately leaves us only seeing him in the evenings and part of the weekends. But when we do, we have some fabulous times.

I am doing well...even with lack of sleep. I think my body and mind are used to it by now. Maybe when the kids are moved out I will sleep...

Roll Me Over!

Aaron has learned how to roll himself from his back to his belly! I tell you...this boy is a genius! Though he isn't too thrilled with things once he makes it on his belly. LOL!
