Update on Cibbers

Cib has been growing so fast I feel like I can't keep up....no really, I can't keep up!

He is what my mother would call 'very active' and 'all boy'. He is at a fun age! He can make up stories, play pretend and have a whole (not always logical) detailed conversation. His memory is like an elephant! They have good memories, right?! Obviously didn't get that from me....

His favorite pass times right now:
Ipad
Bounce houses (anytime, anywhere)
Running
Playing with his superhero toys (batman, spider man, etc)
Books - the child still loves to be read to! Yea!
Chickfila (If he is bored he will ask, "Mom, let's do something really special! Can we go to chickfila?!")

Funny Cib Sayings:
Awesome-sauce!
Overheard talking to his sister, "Emmie, don't cry! I am right here! It's ok! I love you!" (melt my heart)
"Mom, if I feed my rain dragon (an ipad game) skittles, will I get a rainbow dragon?" Smart kid!
"Mom, you did such a good job! You deserve a star!"

Trying Threes are well...trying. But not a day escapes me without my thoughts going to this boys smiles and giggles. He is still daily, my little miracle man!

Emmie 6 Months

Wowzers! Time is flying and it's been way too long since I have sent an update to the blog.

Yesterday marked Emmie's 6 month birthday! She is getting SO big! We had her shots today and check up. She weighs 16 pounds & 12oz (64%)and is 27 inches long(90%). A picture of health!

Her 6 month tricks:
Sitting up on her own for around 3 minutes before wavering.
Babbling (constantly - way more than Cib - like her momma)
Blowing Raspberries
Rolling back to front and front to back (when she feels like it)
Chewing on everything
Eating all fruits, veggies and grains (Starting fish this week)
And for my own records, weening from breastfeeding.

Emmie continues to be a complete delight and LOVES people and to be out. She is my little 'go girl'. I couldn't be more eaten up with her!
Momma loves you bird girl!
