3 Months

Well - it looks like our little boy is three months now! I can't believe how quickly things are moving!


Here is an update on him:
  • He is growing every single day! I think he recently went through a growth spurt as he no longer looks like a newborn but looks, instead, like a little boy! The women in our church nursery comment every week on how much he changes each time they see him and it is so true. (If I could just slow down time.....)
  • He smiles all the time and has just recently found how loud his voice is. He cooes but also will alter his tone - almost like he is having a conversation with you. 
  • He can roll over from his stomach to his back about 75% of the time. 
  • He is much more interested in people and faces than toys - I'm sure that will change quickly. No toys seem to really capture his attention (besides the light up sun). 
  • His sister is, by far, his favorite person! He will track her all the way across the room. He will stop whatever he is doing and just watch her. Now, if we could get her as interested in him :-)
  • He is a miserable (miserable!!) napper right now. He only will stay down for about 30-40 minutes at a time (amazing how productive I can now be in 30 minutes!). Due to those short naps, he goes down about every hour and a half. He is a great (great!!) nighttime sleeper. Typically he only gets up about one time although the last two nights, he has slept all the way through. 
  • He continues to be a great eater! (as you can tell by his growth)
I tried to get him talking but he shuts down every time the camera comes on - here's the best I could get:

Rolling over:


We have been enjoying our moments of sun this month - spending as much time as we have been able to in the sun. 
Our handsome little boy....(so serious!)

Practicing some tummy time outside in the shade

Callie has loved helping take care of Liam. She loves to take his diaper off and LOVES to help him with his bottle. 

Sister snuggles!

Pure joy!

He is getting very strong 

Callie teaching Liam some new songs :-)

We spent Mothers Day at the horse races with the Sarions. Liam slept the most of the time!


What to do when it rains?.....jump in the puddles and ride your bike of course!

Rolling and Reading

Callie rolls ALL over the place!!! One of her favorite places to end up is her bookshelf. Look what I found! As a side note, it looks like one of our cats is finally accepting that Callie is part of the family (or atleast, she isn't going anywhere) and has become very tolerant of her. She lets Callie "pet" her and will even walk up to Callie (which, if you know this cat, is VERY unusual - there are some people who still have never seen her). The other day when I was getting Callie from her nap this was outside her door. Apparently the cat loves Callie enough to bring her toys.

7 Months

This month seemed to have flown by just as quickly as all the others. It's crazy to think she has been part of our family for seven months already. We have had our first real battle (and are still battling) with a never ending cold. She has been a trooper though - although I wish that we could do more to help her. Here's what is new (things have moved very quickly this month): She is up on all fours. She seems to be taking after her cousin Clara, where she can crawl backwards but not yet forwards - which can be very frustrating as the toy she is trying to get to seems to just keep getting farther and farther away. After she learned to get up on all fours, she very quickly learned to go from all fours to sitting. We have yet to find any real foods that she will turn down, although green beans appears to be her favorite so far. When feeding her green beans she will lean forward VERY far and open her mouth as wide as can be just to get the next bite. We can't seem to get

10 Months

So, I am a bit behind. It is officially the end of the school year and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with learning the new job and the close of the school year. Much different from the classroom. When I took Callie in for her nine month appointment her pediatrician checked her ears (which looked totally fine) then made the comment - I don't mean to jinx you but has Callie had an ear infection yet? To which my response was no (she had a super mild one that they gave us medicine for just because we were getting on a plane to Pitt) - in my mind, my response was "no, but we have had everything else imaginable"! The newest thing: last Friday when Callie got up for the day, her eyes were swollen shut. Turns out she had pink eye which was no fun. Many rough nights later she seems to finally be getting back to her happy go lucky self. Here are the newest things about Callie: She continues to get quicker walking with a push toy. Her teachers love watching her outside at da
