3 months and getting BIG!!!

So I know it has been a month since I really blogged, but we have been rather busy and Tom is going to school online, so I don't get much computer time. But I just wanted to update everyone on my little/big boy...LOL Christian is now 3 months and weighs 16 lbs 4 oz and is 26 inches long!! He has already out grown his infant carseat, but unfourtanatly, the carseat we have that he would move upto, was recalled (which I only found out about by going to the fire department to have them install the recalled one), so I have to wait till tomorrow and call the carseat maker and see what is the next step. He is already trying to sit up, and is always wanting to stand, but he has not yet rolled over. He will get there soon though. So that's my update, here's his 3 month pics......

Remembering those we lost

Since today is 9/11, I just wanted to take a moment and remember those we lost.

2 months already!!

I can't believe Christian is 2 months already. We went to the doctor on the 4th for his 2 month check up and he weighs 13 lbs 2 oz ( 90th percentile), and is 24 in. long ( 75 to 95 percentile). He is growing like a weed!!! JT was only 8 lbs 8 oz at 2 months, so Christian is going to be bigger than his big brother....LOL And after only 2 months of breastfeeding, I have only 9 lbs left to loose and I gained a total of 35 lbs. This weight has come off a lot faster than it did with JT. Here are some 2 month pictures of Christian. I took them is his diaper, so you could see his little fat rolls.......

2 months Aug. 5, 2008

Look at those rolls...8-5-08

These were also taken on the 5th, but these pictures are to say thanks to Auntie Amy for the Giraffes.

Another Beautiful Day!!!!!!

So today was aother great day for the beach. We love going to the beach, even Christian loves it!!!

We built a sandcastle and played in the water and enjoyed the 85 degree weather (the heat index made it a lot hotter) with a slight breeze. I love the warm weather as long as I can be buy the water.

All about Justus!!

Ok so today is all about Justus. Justus is loving being a big brother. He is so good with Christian. And is is still being very helpful toward me too, by getting diapers or wipes for me and helping set the dinner table and helping with the laundry. However, he is a typical boy, bouncing off the walls and just full of energy. I wish we had a house so bad, so that he could go in the back yard and run off some of his energy. He weighs 34 lbs now and is 3 ft 3 ins tall. He loves to send his days and nights watching Monster Jam and playing with his collection of Monster Trucks. He would watch Monster Jam all day IF we would let him, but we won't! Besides his Monster Trucks, he loves to go swimming. He can swim all by himself, as long as he has his water wings on. He is not scared at all! he is still trying to learn to keep his mouth closed though, as he ends up drinking lots of the pool water....LOL....YUCK! He has been somewhat lonely lately, since all our friends and family has come and gone. He keeps telling me, "Mom, I wish Auntie Jess and Auntie Amy and Emily and Grandma didn't leave." He is very excited to come visit in December though!! Well, here are some pics of JT, he really needs a hair cut and will get one on Monday!!

Missin Auntie Jess!!!

Wow..look at all my Monster Trucks!!!

39 Monster Trucks!!!

His newest Truck

His 3 favorite Trucks!!!

All about Christian!

So I decided to take a day and talk about each of the kids! Today is Christian's day...... we go in on Monday the 4th for his 2 months check up! Can you believe he is already 2 months?? I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I got on the scale and then got on with Christian and there was a difference of 13 lbs...... can that be true?? WOW!! He is so long that he is already in 3-6 month clothes and in size 2 diapers. The last 2 months seem to have gone by so fast! And I am still having a hard time believing that I have 2 boys!! And trying to give attention to both of them at the same time is so hard. Justus had been good to understand that as soon as Christain is asleep or just hanging out in his swing, that we can then play together.

Christian is such a good baby. Totally different than JT was. He is a very happy baby, and wakes up smiling and talking..... well baby talk that is. He still wakes up about 2 times a night, but eats and goes right back to sleep. Well, I will keep you all up to date on the doctor's appt. on Mon. I really am wondering if 13 lbs could be right????? How crazy is that???

Cutting his nails......and he sleeps...LOL

So sleepy!

Smiles!

Happy Guy

A kinda smile

Another Day at the Beach!

So yesterday was the perfect day to go to the beach. It was not to hot and not too cold, but just perfect. I think it was about 80 or 85 with a little breeze. So we went to Yorktown Beach and played. We stuck Christian's feet in the sand and he seemed to like it. Then we stuck his feet in the water and that was cold. It was very cute!
