The Boys

With all the big birthday excitement I havent posted much of what they are both up to..so heres the scoop..

Ryan
  • Is loving to *talk* He babbles his little coos & calls so loud sometimes we think its Andy! Just the last 2-3 days hes gotten really into it in the evening.. Its pretty darn cute!
  • I think he's going to be an eater, like Andy was not. Hes just 3 months old & he's already watching food. Hopefully when it comes time to start solids down the road he'll do well & not be as difficult as Andy was with them!
  • Giggles..I'm talking belly laughs here people! Andy didnt do this til he was 5-6 months old, but here is Ryan, wearing 12 month clothing at 3 months old & chuckling along with the rest of the family!
  • He thinks i'm silly. Really, he cracks up for me! Mommy is special!
  • He loooovveees Andy. anytime Andy gets near him a HUGE grin crosses his whole face!
  • Ryan wakes less during the night than Andy.


Andy
  • Picked up his Alphabet cereal ( the first time he's had it)he was snacking on, and correctly named every letter he came acrossed!! He may not have his colors or shapes down but knowing a good majority of his letters at 2 is pretty darn good!!
  • Has started syaing thank you, on his own.
  • Is asking "Why? Why? Why?"
  • Repeats "Mommy?.. Mommy?..Mommy?" for a good majority of the day, til it switches to.. "Daddy? Daddy?"
  • Has begun the "me" stage. "Me! Me!" when he wants something.. not pushy yet.. I'm still waiting for that to kick in!
  • Ate all of my perch last night. We each had 2 pieces.. I had less than a half of one pieces of fish & he ate the rest. HUGE accomomplishment!
  • We've started going for walks & "run in the sun, have fun!" it the mornings at a local park ( not the pervy park!) He doesnt want to run & play,he wants to hold my hand & walk around the perimeter of the park & just check it all out, sweet thoughtful little man!

1.) way to laugh Ryan!!!! Hopefully for your sake he will be a good eater... since Andy and Ayden are eating twins... i feel your pain..

2.) way to say the alphabet Andy! That's awesome!
Doesn't it melt your heart when they say "thank you" without you having to remind them?!?!?!

Way to go guys!
