Zeke!

Zeke, you had your 2 month appointment last week! You are 14.6 lbs! You are off the charts in your weight, you love to eat! You are short, chubby, and have a little head (you get that small head from me!). You are so much fun right now! You smile all the time! You smile and me, dad, and your sisters the most! You talk a lot! It is adorable! You always smile and talk to these crosses I have hanging above our bed...I am not sure why, but you love them! You stare at curtains and fans! You are a good sleeper. You have slept from 9 or 10, until 4 or 5 the last 4 nights in a row, and then go right back to sleep until 7 or 8! You nap a lot during the day as long as we are home. When we are out, you want to be awake and see what is going on! You really only cry if you are tired or need to burp or if we put you down! You love to be held! Even when you are hungry, you are starting to just get fussy and kind of look at me with an upset face and talk to me! It is like you are saying, "Mom, I am so hungry, feed me already!" Oh, you cry...actually scream (that is the red faced scream you will see in the picture below) when you are in your car seat...you hate it, unless we are moving, but as soon as we stop, you are screaming, even if we are just stopped at a light! You are very loved!

You get so red faced mad...

...and then so sweet!

Me and my boy! I love him!



He loves to be worn!

My big, sweet, strong, crazy eyed boy!

Not a toddler anymore...

Well, not only do I have a 4 year old, but I now have a 3 year old too! If you don't know, my girls are 1 year and 8 days apart! It makes for some crazy times, but also some really great times! Today, Aydia turns 3! I seriously can't believe it. I always feel like once kids hit 3, they grow up a bunch, just in one day! I don't have toddlers anymore, I have preschoolers! Aydia, she is becoming such a sweetheart. She is very sensitive, she will cry pretty much anytime you tell her no or don't do that. She is very cautious and gets overwhelmed with new people/situations. I noticed this at a very young age...4 months old. We went to an outside engagement party and there were TONS of people there...she screamed her head off for a couple of hours. She was inconsolable. I took her inside to a quiet room, alone, and she just cried and cried...poor baby. Ever since then, if we are at a new place or around new people, she is super shy and clings to anyone she knows. Once she opens up though, she is quite the talker! She talks non-stop! Anything that comes into her brain, immediately comes out her mouth...she even talks in her sleep! She is the goofiest little girl, I love that about her! She is always making goofy faces or saying that goofiest things! She loves people to laugh, and she loves to be loved. She can tell the people that take time to talk to her and will talk about it forever, she always, says, "they like me!" She is really loving. She loves to give hugs and kisses and is always telling us that she loves us! Here are some pictures of my little, sensitive, sweet, goofy girl!
