December 10, 2009 - Milestone Week - Sitting Up

The babies are starting to sit up!!! Landon still has not mastered sitting up, but I don't think he minds because he would rather be in the Jumperoo jumping away. Cooper and Aiden are pretty good at sitting up. Cooper can sit up straighter and longer then Aiden, but Aiden is not far behind. Also Cooper has FINALLY started to scoot. He is so much happier now that he can actually move. He keeps getting on his hands and knees, so I will not be long until he is actually crawling. This is a huge milestone for our little guys because we were always told that since they were preemies that they would be behind developmentally. Our babies are right on track.

I have also added a picture of the babies new Nike shoes that finally came in the mail. They are SO cute!!!!

Great week with Daddy at home!!!

Last week was wonderful because Jason was off for for seven days on vacation. It was really nice having him home and having an extra hand to help throughout the day. The babies really enjoyed spending time with him too.

On Monday I got to start off the week by sleeping in. Jason got up with the babies at 7:30 and fed them while I slept for an extra 2 hours. Later that afternoon we put up the Christmas tree. The babies sat in there carriers and watched. They were fascinated with the lights. They also played on the floor with some Christmas decorations.

On Tuesday we took the babies to Kiddie Kandids to get there Christmas pictures taken. I was a little worried about there pictures because I was not sure how they would do. They did GREAT. We got some awesome pictures. They were SO happy and they smiled for every picture. I am so happy with the pictures!!! Thanks Tina for going with me and Jason and helping us with the babies.

On Wednesday we took that babies to see Santa. They did not cry at all. Landon looked at him and giggled. Cooper looked at him and smiles really big and Aiden just stared at him.

On Thursday we did not leave the house.

On Friday we went to Smithville for the Festival of Lights which was on Saturday. We left Friday morning and totally missed the snow. It never snows in Houston and when it finally did we missed it. While we were in Smithville we got to visit with friends and family.

So this morning Jason and back to work and its just me and the babies. The good thing is that he only has to work for three days and then he is off for two days. Then two more days of work and he is off for seven more days.

5 MONTHS OLD

The babies are 5 months old!!!! We have a Dr. apt on Dec 14th so we should have some new weights and heights soon.


AIDEN

Aiden is getting really good with this hands. He can hold objects and pass them back and forth from one hand to another. He just started sucking his two fingers when he goes to sleep. Aiden LOVES to smile and is becoming quite the little talker. He has the nickname "Smiley" because he just cannot stop smiling. He is for sure one happy little guy. He has the cutest deep raspy voice. He also loves to stand like a big boy while you hold his hands.


LANDON

Landon is still our most talkative one. He makes himself known and will talk from the time he gets up in the morning until he goes to bed. I wish I knew what he was saying because he has some pretty serious conversations and he has so much to say. He still LOVES the Jumperoo and he too loves to stand while you hold his hands. He gets the biggest smile on his face when he stands. He is starting to chew on his hands and still loves to play with is feet. He is the slowest when it comes to eating. He takes his sweet little time and has to be watching TV while he eats.


Cooper

Cooper is quite the drooler. He is like a faucet with a leak. I'm pretty sure the is teething and he will not keep his fingers out of his mouth. The last two days he has become quite the chatter box. He has a really high pitch scream and he thinks its quite funny. He will just sit or lay wherever he is and scream really loud and then laugh about it. Cooper is our busy body. He hates to take naps because he is so scared he is going to miss something. He might sleep for 20 min. and then he is wide awake and ready to go. He is for sure our noise child.


All of the babies are so much fun. They all have developed there own personalities and it has been so much fun to be able to watch them grow and change daily. We feel like the luckiest parents ever to be blessed with three beautiful and healthy little boys.

Melinda and Clint came to visit.

On Friday Melinda and Clint Anderson came over to visit the babies. Melinda and I have been friends for many years. We actually went to day care together when we were babies. Melinda has been up to see the babies before but the babies were only two months old and I totally forgot to get pictures. So here are some pictures of Melinda, Clint and the boys.
