Ben - 18 months

Ben turned 18 months old last week!  He went to the doctor and weighed 26 lbs. 12 oz. (60th percentile) and was 34 inches tall (90th percentile).  His head was still off the charts, but has really slowed down in growth so we're hoping it stays that way for awhile!  He got one shot and took it like a champ....just ripped off the band-aid and was ready to go!

He is still a man of (very) few words, but seems to be trying to talk a little bit more lately.  He loves his sister and brother and tries to do a lot of the things Taylor does.  He loves music and dancing!  Most of the time he is a happy and content little boy......we hope you stay that way, Benny!!!

Wacky Day

Taylor had "wacky day" at school today!  Here is the wacky outfit she put together.....

Snow Day!

We were excited to see a good amount of snow this morning when we woke up!  Taylor has been wanting to make a snowman all winter and this is the first time we have had enough good snow, so we went outside to build a snowman before it all melted!

 Ben "oooing" over the snowplow!

 Taylor, Ben, and the snowman she named "Frosty".....real original.

 No snow for this guy!

3 Months

It's hard to believe that Drew is 3 months old already!  He has finally figured out how to sleep at night.  Just for about the past week he went from getting up every couple hours to sleeping 8-9 hours....it's wonderful!!!  Now we need to work on naps!  He likes to lay on his playmat and watch the musical star and also is starting to sit up in the bumbo seat some.  His head is getting stronger and his hair is getting much thinner!  He still hates his carseat and if he had his way he would just be held all day long!

 Some 3 month pictures....

 Boiler Up!

Sledding

We attempted to take the kids sledding on Sunday.  It was a lot colder out than we thought, which didn't help.  Taylor went down the hill a couple times and Ben hated every minute of it (except when Grandpa would throw the empty sled down the hill).  I think we'll just stick to making snowmen in our yard this year!!!

Haircut

Taylor got her haircut this weekend.  It was the first time she got more than just a trim.  She probably got about 5 inches cut off.  We think it looks cute!!!

 Ben got a haircut, too.....just not as exciting!

January...

I realized I haven't posted anything for awhile!  We haven't been doing much....we enjoyed the "warm" January weather when it was here.  I tried to get the kids outside every day that we could!

 Ben LOVED being outside and would throw a fit or run away when it was time to come in.

 Drew is getting bigger and more content.  He smiles frequently (especially for Mommy), but this is the best I can get on camera!

 Taylor and I went to see Beauty and the Beast in 3D at the movie theater.  The 3D glasses have been a big hit around here.
