Baby J 4.5 months

Baby J has taken a turn for the better as of late (possibly the last week but I can't quite remember). He is cooing and squealing a lot and giggling when I tickle him. One thing that makes nursing him at 2am or 4am not completely horrible is that he will give me the biggest smile when I'm changing his diaper.

He seems so sweet to me but others beg to differ. Not sure why but he screams when he's being held by anyone else. I've been told he's a momma's boy, which is a double edge sword honestly, therefore he only wants to be held by me. The Hub did give him a bottle a few times last weekend when I ran off to Ikea for the whole day to buy cabinets and after that he's seemed to warm up to daddy.

The Hub is actually getting a smile out of him at times. It seems his colick is dissappearing (hopefully) and that his spit up is lessening, a plus about this is that I smell less like rotting milk and that I get to enjoy a happier & sillier baby. We're grateful for the changes and are welcoming more happier baby moments.

We shall see if he can warm up to Grandma this weekend. The Hub and I are leaving for Cleveland today for an overnight trip. We are going to see a concert and stay in a lovely hotel room, that I don't have to clean! Grandma was gracious to volunteer her time and energy and watch the kiddos. This means that Baby J is gonna get a bottle for almost 24 hours...I hope it goes okay.

On another note, I think his eyes might just be turning brown. It's difficult to tell from the pic, they kind of come off grey but we'll see soon enough.

finally playing together

Super N is almost 9 months and W is 25 months now, they're playing with eachother now! W still likes to take charge of his sister but he will now as of late try to make her laugh by making funny faces at her, she will then giggle or squeal in joy.

She is getting more mobile and trying to crawl now, making lots of expressions and laughing so much! She is really a great baby. I can't believe she's growing so fast!

W is awesome as well. His vocabulary has increased so much. He likes to say "hi" to everyone over & over again. He seems to be very social.

In the winter they'll both have so much fun playing together, which makes me happy since we'll be stuck inside a lot we can all entertain eachother.

Super N at Six Months

She's 6 months now. Almost sitting up on her own and laughing and giggling all the time. I think she's incredibly laid back. She mostly just sits back and watches. My love for her has grown so so much. I can't believe she's changed so much. We are going to the beach this September and she'll be 1 and W will be 2.5. I hope she is walking so they can play together in the sand. I can't wait!!
