no more bottle


Blake is officially off the bottle! Can you tell he's my second child? I would have NEVER thought of doing that to Andrew. The day Blake turns one we'll be heading out of town for a week and a half. I REALLY didn't want to travel with bottles and such so I had asked the Dr. at his 9 month apt. if there was anyway we could transition to whole milk before his birthday. He said it's really okay to do it after 10 months and since Andrew didn't have a problem with milk he thought Blake would do fine. I really thought it would take longer than 4 days to get him off the bottle. I took away the night one first (with Andrew I did morning) and he did fine. After 2 days I figured why drag out the process...so we took out his morning one and is doing great! He would get so excited when he would see his bottle that I worried he was attached to it and it was going to be hard to transition...however, now he gets excited when he sees his milk cup...the boy just likes to eat and drink I guess!

dinner

Someone should design a high chair with a water hose attached to it!
I'm thinking Blake enjoyed dinner tonight...
Making sure he didn't miss any...

And here's a little video. Um...try to ignore my annoying mommy voice.

ha!

Sorry, I'm still cracking up at my last post. I had nearly 100 hits on my blog yesterday! The funny part was some of my family actually fell for it! Like I wouldn't tell them personally!!

So, I'm not pregnant. I've probably jinxed myself. As much as I love that newborn phase I'm not ready for all the work that comes with 3 kiddos. Two is enough for me for now. I was talking to someone (brain freeze...I think Jill and Megan) about how when you have one kid you think it's a lot of work...and at that time it is. When you have 2 kiddos you're like...one kid was a breeze... although you don't think that at the time. Anyway, I can't imagine 3!

well...

The reason I've been so tired lately is because...

these boys are going to have another playmate!!

We are expecting baby #3 in November!! We are very excited and figured this was the best way to tell family and friends!

bath play by play...

Here's how bath time went down tonight. It started out good. Everyone was playing and sharing Mr. Duck....
Blake giving Mr. Duck some love...
But Blake started drinking the bath water and got a little tipsy. Things just went downhill after that... Blake stole Andrew's crayon. And when Andrew realized this...
Blake was not very happy.But Mommy made it all better when she took all crayons away. Andrew thinks he won the battle.I don't normally have crayons in the tub when Blake is around but the bath was originally for Andrew.
Andrew's still sick. Guess I'll be making a trip to the doctors tomorrow. That's always fun. Andrew hates that place. Especially when he realizes we are there for him and not Blake.

Daddy making it all better.

big A and little B

Andrew's sick AGAIN! ug! I know the Dr. said his upper respiratory infection would last 7-10 days. Well, 10 days was yesterday. That's when he started running fever. Actually it was 2 AM! I really thought he was over the uri like 4 days ago. So I'm sure this is something else. I don't know how because he hasn't left the house! He keeps complaining his tummy hurts but keeps eating. I'm so worried he's going to puke! Last night he woke up burning up and crying at 9:30 and I just moved him to my bed. I didn't feel like getting up a million times during the night. He went back to sleep about 11 and didn't wake up until 4:30 AM. You would think I would have gotten 5 straights hours of sleep but no, that boys is ALL over the place!! I'm determined to get 5 consecutive hours next week! Matt's been working nights so he isn't around much to help.

I really hope Blake doesn't get it. I have his pack 'n play back out for him to play in some but don't know if that even helps. Andrew still walks over there and talks to him. I also caught Blake drinking out of Andrew's cup! Oh joy!
Anyway, over the past week Blake has started really walking. He's all over the place! It's so weird to come around the corner and have him walking towards you. He is one busy little boy!

outside fun

happy Easter

Since we weren't able to go to church this morning, I put the boys in part of their Easter outfits to hunt for eggs and baskets. It was a nice cool morning!
Andrew found an egg! Outta my way! I'm off to find an egg.
Found it!Getting warmer, Andrew! It took Andrew a while to find this egg. Matt and I were cracking up! Andrew couldn't figure out what was so funny.
Blake found his "basket" in his swing! It's a new pool!! The Easter Bunny brings us one EVERY year!
Andrew and his basket. All Thomas stuff! Andrew loved his basket..but didn't want to pose for the picture!

Happy Easter!!
