Monkey Business

Emily Grace and Austin were so excited to have mastered the monkey bars! We went to our favorite park, thinking that the weather man was going to be right with a high of 67...nope...cloudy and a bit chilly. But they had fun anyway and it was a blast to watch them!

Future Football Player?

I think we have a future football player on our hands...LOL. Christian weighs 17 pounds and is 27 and a half inches long. His doctor joked with us that football recruiters will be calling soon. He did give the go ahead to start baby food. I had been feeding him just oatmeal with a bit of bananas, pears, or applesause in it....which he does not really like. His doc said I could do the bigger jars (step 2) and feed him half twice a day. Well what they have out for baby food sure has changed since Austin was a baby. So I decided to get just step 1 for now to see what he likes...some veggies, fruits, and some meats. Well last night I tried the sweet baby carrots...and oh boy...he loves them and ate the whole jar (it was just the little step 1..but still!) So apparently he is going to love veggies over fruits which is a good thing.  Once he went down to sleep about 10:30 (after his pre-bedtime nap LOL) he slept until 3:15 before he woke up. I am hoping that will be a new trend..but since he is teething I won't count on it. :) He did pretty good getting his shots yesterday too....better than his daddy watching him..LOL.

Sock Monkeys

I know ...he is only 19 weeks...yet I am already obsessed thinking about his first birthday party. He is our last baby and I know that even though he won't remember it...I will. James and I love love love...the idea of a sock monkey birthday. I even found a hat that I wish I could make (hmm....Aunt Robin??) and if I was really sew talented..I would be making him a blanket out of material with sock monkeys on it....sigh...I really need my talented MIL to teach me sometime. Anyway I found some pics of the ideas that we would like to do. What do you think?

Photo of the Day

I am trying to keep up with shuttercal (photo of the day). You can click on Photo of the Day under the blogroll on the right to see. I am going to try and do this the whole year...LOL. When you go to the calender you can click on the picture to see the comment to it. :) Enjoy!

4 month check up tomorrow

Little man is almost 19 weeks old and is having his 4 month check up tomorrow which includes his shots....not looking forward to that part. I am interested to see how much super chunk weighs...LOL.

Trying Out

I am trying out wordpress. With the new templates that Blogger has I have been unable to change or add things so I wanted something different....we'll see which is better.

Moving

Our blog is moving...I am trying out wordpress. I have been having a hard time with blogger about adding items. So our new address is http://www.jotts.wordpress.com/

I have already decided that for your first birthday we are going to do a sock monkey theme....since we call you monkey all the time anyway..it fits!

Moments

I love this picture of all three of my babies...it is amazing how much they all look alike. I can't believe how fast they are growing up. Em just told me the other day that she will soon be eight...I told her not to rush it..LOL. I then realize how close that is to double digits...tween...teenager....ahhhhhhhh! I am not ready for that...not having ribbions in her hair...cute monogrammed dresses..all that too soon will be a memory. Where has the time gone? It seems like yesterday she was just born. And I can't believe how fast the school year has gone already...of course I know spring break cannot come fast enough for some! LOL

16 Weeks

Christian is 16 weeks...sigh..time is going by so quickly. He is almost 25 inches long..not sure how much he weighs since our scale is broke..LOL..I am pretty sure he is close to 18 pounds. He is such a chuncky monkey! He is very calm..loves to laugh...watches his big brother and sister intently and loves to "talk." He also loves to watch Phinneas and Pherb. He is not to thrilled with rice cereal but loves oatmeal with bananas. Hates tummy time...but loves to lay on his back and play with his rattle. He is teething already and is chewing on his hands. He will take his paci some but not like he use to. He is wearing 3-6 month clothing. We are truly blessed to have this little man!
