Kindergarten!!!!

I have decided that I will be sending Max to Kindergarten come September, as I think it will be better for him then going to another year of preschool. He is just so beyond what his preschool class is learning, and I think he’ll be better suited for Kindergarten. He will be going to a private school (that has preschool and Kindergarten in it) 5 days a week from 8:30am to 2:30pm. He is so excited, and I am in disbelief that my lil man will be going to Kindergarten in less than 6 months (Ahhh!, lol).

15 weeks!!!!

Colt and Liam are 15 weeks old now, :)

Colt can now grab for toys and hold on to them (at least most of the time lol), he is still loving being in the exersaucer. He can now hold himself up with his arms (when he’s on his belly) and look around, he’s been doing this for a week now. And just today he let me stand him up, while I was holding him and he actually bore weight on his legs, and he seemed to love standing up too. Colt still loves tummy time (even more so now that he can hold himself up a bit), and he can hold his head up perfectly now and for as long as he wants too. Colt has also started babbling now, it now actually sounds more like he’s talking, lol, it’s so cute.

Liam is holding his head up better now, but is still somewhat wobbly. He has now started batting at toys. And he is getting to like tummy time a bit better now, and will stay for about 5 mins. on his tummy before he starts to get upset. He still prefers to be in the Moby Wrap cuddled with me then anything else though, :)

Colt is now 10 pounds and 21.5 inches, and Liam is now 10 pounds, 12 ounces and 22 inches.

Liam is now 12 ounces heavier than Colt is, but still only a half an inch taller.

1 year Anniversary and Engaged!!!

Today is mine and my boyfriend’s 1 year anniversary of starting to date and he asked me to marry him today and I of course said yes, I am so excited, I have a fiancĂ© now, :D. We were only friends when our older son was conceived but started dating when he was 9 months old, that’s why it’s only been a year that we have been going out :D

21 months old!!!!

Max is 21 months old today, my lil man is growing up so fast.

He is now 33 pounds, 8 ounces and 40.5 inches. He’s still about the average weight of a 3/1/2 year old boy, but getting closer to the average height of a 4 year old boy.

He’s my big boy, and def. acts more the age he looks then the age he actually is. He is now reading step 2 books independently, he is also starting to learn easy math problems, and he is getting better and better at writing and spelling.

He is still loving going to pre-school, but I think he’s almost beyond what they are learning there, although he loves socializing with the kids, he’s not really learning academically anymore, and I am seriously considering sending him to Kindergarten come September, I believe he’s ready for it and I found a private school that is willingly to take him, even though he’ll only be about 27 months old by then. I have less than a month to think about whether I think it’s the right thing to do or not, cuz the class is going to fill up fast and if I want a spot then I’ll have to tell them by March 31st.

ONLY 3 MONTHS TIL MAX IS 2 YEARS OLD!!!!!!

3 months old!!!!

Colt and Liam were 3 months old, 2 days ago, WOW I so can’t believe it!!

Colt can sit up well with help, and loves too be sat up, so he can look around. He can hold his head up very well, and is getting better and better at doing it longer and longer. I just put him in his exersaucer for the first time yesterday and he loved it, although he’s a bit too small for it, lol I just propped him up with a few blankets, and let him play. He is getting close to being able to grab toys and hold on to them, he can grab them well enough but still has a bit of trouble holding onto them, lol.

Liam is getting better about being able to hold his head up and can now do it for about 20 secs or so at a time. He giggled for the first time yesterday, I laughed at something Max had said and Liam looked up at me and giggled, it was so adorable. Liam has started cooing now, just today in fact, and did it when he was happily awake in the Moby Wrap, otherwise he stops doing it, lol.

Colt is now 9 pounds and 20.5 inches, and Liam is now 9 pounds, 8 ounces and 21 inches.

They are both still so tiny for their age, but over the last month Liam has started to grow a bit faster than Colt, which makes sense because he eats more and sleeps more than Colt does lol.
