Adam- 2 months old!

Here are a few more shots of Adam! He is now 2 months old, weighs in at 15 lbs. 4 oz. (95th percentile in weight- that's my boy!). He is now sleeping from 9pm until 5am (what a WONDERFUL thing!), and eats about every 2 hours during the day.

Here's he wearing one of my favorite outfits. I like how it looks like he is saying, "Here, look at Pooh bear."

Two brothers!

Bath time with Mr. Blue Eyes!

Caleb squeezing between our two kitties! They are so tolerant of him!

Adam has many faces. I love trying to figure out what he's thinking.

"Be very, very still..maybe she'll put the camera away."

IMG_3663

"Okay, she's still here. I guess I'll smile...a little."

IMG_3664

"Here's my tongue...I wish my hair would stay down"

IMG_3665

"WHAT? No dinner tonight?!"

IMG_3666

"Okay, okay..here's a real smile"

IMG_3669

Adam loves being on his tummy for short periods of time...here he is on his baby gym giving us a sweet smile!

And another pose..in another location! What a trooper for letting Mommy take so many pictures!

Adam LOVES bath time- and he's discovered that he can splash with his feet!



When Caleb is in the room, Adam tends to just look and listen. Once Caleb is out of the room, he can be quite the talker!

SUCH a white boy!

Here's Caleb dancing to "Happy" by Ayeisha Woods.


I take way too many pictures!

These pictures are in no particular order. Adam is 7 weeks old now, about 15 pounds, and only getting up once a night!

He still has his blue eyes and a small amount of light brown/blond hair! He smiles and talks a lot!

IMG_3575

My other son, however, smiles a lot UNTIL you try to take a picture. A typical scenario goes like this.

Caleb: "Mommy, can you take a picture of me on the couch please?"

Mommy: "Sure! Let me get the camera. Now smile!"

*CLICK*

Mommy: "Caleb, now look at ME, not somewhere else. Now, SMILE!"

*CLICK*

IMG_3605

Mommy: "NO, not that kind of smile! And where are your eyes?? I need to see some eyes!"

*CLICK*

IMG_3606

Mommy: *sighs* "I guess that'll have to do."

However, this one evening he decided to cooperate and gave us a great smile after he helped Daddy complete a cool space puzzle that we got from our friends Phillip and Amanda Skaggs. He's so proud! It is one of his favorite things to do- we're pretty impressed as the puzzle has 48 pieces, but Caleb will still put some together all on his own! Smart kid!

I love giving Adam a bath. Even if he is fussy before I put him in, as soon as I do, he gets calm. He loves having the warm water poured over his (big) belly, and his hair being washed. Here's a picture of him snuggling in a soft, warm bath towel!

IMG_3608

He loves talking to Mr. Monkey!

Smiles and cuddles with Mommy!

Close up!

Both of our cats are protective of Adam. If he starts crying, Josie comes running to see what the fuss is about. I put Adam down for a nap on our bed the other day, and when I came back 30 minutes later, this is what I found. :)


IMG_3553
And, then the other day, Adam and Daddy were snuggling, and Mikey hopped up on the chair to be with "the boys". :)

IMG_3598
Adam wanted to try out a "bespectacled" look with Daddy's glasses!

IMG_3602
The other day, Adam passed out in my arms to where I could move him or put him anywhere and he would not budge. I laid him on the ottoman (don't worry, we were both standing guard should he make any sudden movements) and he just laid there. He would have slept there if I had let him!

IMG_3607
And...because I could not pick just one, I made a little album of his sweet (and various) smiles!

Two cute videos!




Grab a snack...


...'cause this post is kinda long. :)

We've had quite a lot of fun adjusting to two sweet boys in the house! I've not posted in awhile, so there are lots of pictures and videos to share. Most of the videos are around 30 seconds long so it shouldn't take you too long to watch them all! To fill you in...Adam is now 6 weeks old! He weighs in at 14 lbs. 4 oz. He is sleeping well at night (most of the time), and gets up only once or twice. He still has his (very) blue eyes, and has started to smile, laugh, and even chatter!

IMG_3479

The video below shows Adam's facination with the green oval hoop thingy. His smile is so contagious!



More smiles!

Doesn't he look like a mischievous little boy here?

IMG_3487

Here are some sweet laughs and coos from Adam!



Adam is truly fascinated with Caleb. He will turn his head towards him if he hears him talking. Caleb is such a great helper...he will quietly say "Shh, shh, shh" to Adam if he's crying. It's so sweet!

IMG_3509

Here are the three boys all playing on the living room floor over the weekend!

IMG_3516

Everybody say "cheese"!!

IMG_3512

Here's another video of some smiles from Adam..I love how much Caleb is talking in the background! Adam's going to have to work hard to get in a word edgewise!!



A sweet daddy and Adam shot...can you tell he's only 6 weeks old??

IMG_3504
"You can't hide your tired eyes"

IMG_3437

He was well worth the hard delivery!

IMG_3445

Got a cute video of Adam and Eric getting some quality time!



And now, that I've posted a gazillion pics of Adam, it's Caleb's turn! Here he is, enjoying his two grandfathers- Grandpa Wayne (Eric's dad) and Papa (my dad)!

IMG_3473

Our friend, Pat, brought this cute puppy-eared towel for Caleb to use at bath time. He thought it was so funny!

IMG_3495
Caleb's discovered a love for coloring. His mimi (Eric's mother) brought him a very nice set of jumbo sized Crayola crayons to color with and after he dumped them out on his highchair tray, he proceeded to organize them in a line. Mr. Organized?

IMG_3500

Here he is with Mikey, our boy cat. Mikey and Josie have really warmed up to Caleb now that he's treating them more gently! Mikey looks like his front paws are floating in mid-air. However, that sneaky cat has his front claws attached to my sheer drapes.

IMG_3460

For Easter, my grandparents in Clover, SC, had a gorgeous bouquet of alstromeria (my favorite flower) sent to our house. Caleb very sweetly posed with them for me!

IMG_3521
There are no words to describe how much I love my two little boys...here is a sweet video of Caleb and his brother.



I'll try to post more often from now on so it doesn't take me so long to update the blog! Hope you enjoyed it!!
