Rockin' out!


Today Ryan downloaded the soundtrack to "Hannah Montana" and Emmet had a blast dancing to it. He immediately ran into the kitchen where the music was playing and started tapping that foot and bobbing his head! It was so funny! As soon as you turn the music off he starts pouting. So, back on it goes and the laughter begins!!! P.s. Yes, that is a powder brush in his hands...he loves to dust the house with it...I'm telling you he's going to be a C.S.I!

Some fun videos


Tonight I was walking to the kitchen and saw this nasty baby lizard scurrying across the floor. So, I grabbed the closest thing to me and trapped it (that tupperware is now in the trash...yuck!). We thought it would be funny to see Emmet's reaction. He thought it was the coolest thing. He wanted to touch it so bad!. What a boy! I'm still so grossed out!

Emmet loves to watch Baby Einstein. We love to watch him watch his movies because he gets SO excited. He has to point at everything and show us what he likes. Too cute! Kids are great entertainment!

Emmet LOVES his little brother so much. He is always wanting to share his snacks and drinks with him. Lately when he runs by him he stops and rubs his head...what a nerd. It's pretty funny though!

3 months old!!!

Weston is already 3 months old! I can't believe it. Time has been flying by with these two monkeys! Most days I don't get a break and I'm constantly entertaining boys, but I LOVE LOVE being a mom. I know I've said it a million times, but Weston is seriously the sweetest baby, ever. He rarely cries and is so laid back and happy. He is such a good eater too. I guess that's why he's already over 15 lbs! What a tub! There's just something so angelic about his personality. He just exudes love. I can't even explain it. It's just this feeling I get when I look at him. It's really hard having two babies so close together, but now that he's here and I'm in the swing of things I couldn't feel more blessed. Emmet is such a good older brother, too. He's never jealous or mean to Wes. I can tell he really loves him and knows that he's part of his family. Yes, he constantly wakes him up from naps yelling and running around the house but he's always wanting to give him kisses or just look at him. Yesterday was the sweetest thing ever. Weston was just cooing and talking and Emmet wanted up on my lap to see what was going on. Well, Wes caught a glimpse of Emmet looking at him and gave him the biggest gummiest grin! Emmet immediately got a huge smile on his face and for a few seconds they just held each others gaze smiling at eachother....instantly brought tears to my eyes. What a mom...I know. I just know that Wes was meant to be here with us and that the four of us were all supposed to be together. Moments like those make all the tough times worth it.





Already best of buds :)

Emmet was so excited to hold his brother. I was worried I'd have to pin those arms down, but he was so good with him.

Similarities?

I thought it would be fun to try and find similar photos of my two boys to compare. I couldn't find very similar expressions...but they are exactly the same age in these pics. Do you see any similarities in the two???



Study buddies

It's a big week for Ryan. Block exams!!! He has been dutifully studying day and night. Poor guy is running on 2 hours of sleep a day and I know he's ready for this week to be over. Lucky for him he has a great study partner! Emmet and his dad have this bond...it's adorable. Wherever Ryan is...you'll find Emmet. Emmet had just woken up from his nap and wanted to hang out with dad, but he was too busy. So I had the bright idea of sitting him next to him with his own "project" aka snacks! He loved it! He sat there and was such a good boy for almost an hour. Just talking to Ryan and enjoying his fruit loops. He loves to feel big...

Are these boys twins or what!?

Such concentration ;)

What a grown boy to just sit there and eat his snacks...he even shared with his dad :)
