The zoo!!

We had a great time at the zoo last weekend! We went with Yia-Yia and Papou and all the cousins. William really liked the animals and mostly he loved just running around.

Adam- 4 months!

I can hardly believe it but our sweet Adam boy is 4 months old! Time really is flying. We went to the dr for his check up and he measures 26 in long (90%), he weighs 15 lbs (50%) and his head is in the 10th percentile. A small head!!! That is such a foreign concept to my family, it worries me! He is right on track with all his developmental stuff. He smiles and talk all the time and he can roll from stomach to back. He is finally starting to giggle and it is so cute! We love our cutest Addy.

Although this picture looks like his cereal eating was successful...he hates it and has only had it 3 ish times. So different than his big brother!

3 years!

This was really such an amazingly perfect day! I can hardly believe it was 3 whole years ago. Thanks for making them the best 3 years ever.

Who knew how quickly 2 would become four!!! We are awesome! I love you!

The cutest ever!

Naked basketball is awesome!

Adam!!!

Catching up

This is our William boy. He is now 16.5 months old, weighs 25 lbs and is 31 in tall. He has 12 teeth, including 4 molars. He is obsessed with balls, doesn't matter what kind, or if it actually is a ball i.e, apples, oranges you get the point. From the second he wakes up in the morning until bedtime he plays and runs, throws and kicks balls all around the house. He is a good boy(besides the occasional smack he gives his aunts and uncles) and full of laughter. He can run, and he is trying to master feeding himself. He loves to uncover mommy's belly and say hi to the baby, as well as give him/ the belly zerberts(raspberries/bubbas). Anytime he sees a baby he gets super excited so hopefully he will still love babies when he gets one at home in the next 4 weeks! He constantly makes us laugh. He loves all food but would live on fruit and crystal light alone if we let him :) We love this stage and how much he is learning each day amazes us.

nose issues...

I started having nose issues in march and discover there was something up there! So I went to an ENT and he cut it out...3 weeks later it was back and huge! I was given the option of surgery under general anaesthesia(which is frowned upon while pregnant) or wait until after boy #2 arrived. After consulting my OB I opted for the surgery. I had the mass removed on Andy's birthday(poor guy) and am now doing great! They don't know why it grew and grew back but thankfully it is now gone!

this is my normal nostril

This is my not normal nostril the day before surgery. Gross I know!

i want to win!

These shoes are so cute!

A few pictures of our growing Bubba

This William boy is now 14 months old and walking all over the place! He is so much fun and so happy all the time. He loves to snort to show you where his nose is and any animal he sees is a dog which makes him bark! The boy never stops moving and loves to be chased, it makes him squeal with delight.

Notice his hands in this picture??? He has recently discover something VERY interesting!

William stuffed his face with steak tonight! We really think he ate about 6 oz. He's only 14 months old, how on earth are we going to feed him when he is a teenager? oy!

A big boy haircut...

William got his first haircut last weekend. He's needed one for quite a while and so last saturday when I saw him having to brush his hair out of his eyes, I decided it was time. Andy said he could do it and we decided that was best considering the fight we knew William was going to give us. Here is a before picture to show exactly how much hair he had :)

At first he didn't mind too much...

Then he was very sad/ ticked and needed both binky and bottle to calm him

AFTER!!!

It's a great haircut and it totally makes him look like a big boy. However on this day I was ticked that it was so short and sad sad sad that he looked so old. I believe this was more traumatic for me than it was for him. Darn these pregnancy hormones!

Just for fun!

Happy Birthday William boy!

Where does the time go? Our boy is 1! Today was quite normal for William: breakfast, play, nap, lunch, play, visit grammy, nap, play, dinner, tub and bed! But it has been really fun for me remembering exactly one year ago.....

I felt so huge and tortured, William was 9 days over due. Oy! I had to get induced because the bubba was very comfortable where he was. After an induction, water breaking, epidural and about 21 hours he was finally here! 9 whoppin' pounds and 22.5 inches long!

William is and always has been very easy going, a voracious eater, loving, busy, full of smiles and personality and an all around easy boy to get along with and handle. Here are a few (haha) pictures looking back on his now 1 year of life.

William we love you so much. We can't stop kissing you or licking your toes and armpits. Your giggle is priceless and you fill our life with so much joy. Like the grinch, our hearts grew three sizes the day you entered our family. Happy birthday Bubba!

his favorite monkey

Yes, he is playing with exactly what you think it is!

He was not a fan of having frosting everywhere
