The latest on the boys

Drew

Drew has been developing into quite the fabulous young man. He loves "projects" and being "helpful." So whether he's painting pumpkins, collecting colorful leaves, or handing tools to Daddy, he's thrilled. He is still going "pee pee in the potty" every day - three or four times! He's really proud of himself. He loves to flush the toilet and wash his hands too! And I just noticed that he knows ALL the words (or letters) in the alphabet song. His letter recognition is quite impressive too. It's so exciting to see his progress each week.

Dean

He currently weighs an even 14 pounds. He maintains his position in the 50th percentile. I'm holding off on solids for a bit as he's thriving on good-ole breast milk. And honestly, I can't imagine feeding two kids right now. Mealtime is challenging enough already! We finally bought Dean a crib! He's been sleeping in the swing or in our bed his entire life: 16 weeks! We'll be putting the crib together this weekend and praying for a smooth transition. Dean continues to be an infant with a big grin which he is happy to share with anyone who pays him the slightest bit of attention. He's a people lover. He doesn't have the best sleep habits (is that his fault or ours?), but he's got an amazing, easy-going disposition. For that, I am so grateful. He's beginning to roll over more consistantly; he enjoys colorful books; and he loves "patty cake." Who doesn't?!?
