One of those days...

Last week, I was having one of those days... You know the ones, the baby's crying non-stop, the toddler is in terror mode, and Mama is sporting the same thing she slept in and it is nearing 6:00 pm. Yep, one of those days. Well, Nick comes home from work, and without missing a beat, can see in my eyes (or maybe by the spit-up covered pj's that I have been wearing for 2 days) that I need a break. He immediately entertains Liam, fixes us all dinner, gives Liam a bath and then sits down to watch a movie with the boys before putting them to bed. And at the end of one of those hectic days, this is what makes it all worth it :) I am blessed.

2 Months

Hudson is already 2 months old! He is doing great, and growing like a weed. At his his check-up he weighed 12 lbs. and 6 oz. (67%) 22 1/4 inches long (28%) and his head was 15.5 in (37%). When he went for his check-up he was running a low grade fever (100.2), and was a little congested, so we had to watch him overnight and take him back this morning just to make sure all was well. He got the all clear, and is acting more alert and a lot less fussy, so that is always good! At least we got his first cold out of the way nice and early. He has started smiling, which is SO cute. However, he only does it for a select few people right now. I am looking forward to lots more smiles, giggles and "talking" in the next couple months. It is always fun when they start to interact with you, it sure does make the sleepless nights all worth it :).

Happy Easter

These are just some of my favorite pictures of the boys in their Easter outfits. I have a lot more pictures to come. Sweet, sweet boys!

Brotherly Love

One Month!

Man, if I thought time went by fast with one baby, it seems to be going double time with two. We have all been enjoying getting to know the newest member of the family, and we think he is pretty sweet.

As of his one month check-up on Friday he had gained 3lbs. and grown an inch! He is going to take after his brother and be a little chunk in no time :). He is up to 9 lbs. and 3 oz. and 21 inches long. As far as sleeping goes, he does a lot of that, but still wakes about every 3 hours at night to eat. I am not expecting him to sleep through the night anytime soon. Liam was 8 months old before he slept through the night, so I will be sleep deprived for quite some time.

I am excited to be doing the monthly chair pictures like I did with Liam. I love looking back and seeing just how fast they grow and change in just a months time. I am also going to try to put a few comparison pictures of the boys each month for fun :).

Monkey Joes!

We took Liam to Monkey Joes for the first time on Saturday. It was SO much fun! Him and Nick had a blast, and I even got to go down the slides a couple times, too :). Liam became slightly obsessed with one of the cars, and would run and jump in it after he got off of every slide. It was pretty cute :). For children 2 and under it is only $5 and adults get in free. Nick said he can't wait to go back. I think he had more fun than Liam :).
