4 months!

So here we are at 4 months old and he has changed so much. He has developed his own personality already and is very smiley and vocal...  and by vocal I mean LOUD. He practically shouts sometimes when he coos. He has tried scooting already (Lord help me) and on his 4 month day, we tried his first food: peas and boy does he love peas. He is so different from Tristan who as a baby was quiet, calm, and smiley but not too smiley which is hard to believe now. The doctor also said he has positional plagieocphaley (sp?) due to him not wanting to roll over even though he can but he'd rather sit or try and scoot across the floor. Well here is his updates and pictures and once I get some cute pics I will be doing Tristan's potty training post :).

Height: 24. 75in
Weight: 14lbs which means no weight gain this month
Clothes: still in 3-6 months everything but pants which are still 0-3 months, size 2 shoes. Might need to switch to 6-9 months sleepers though because he keeps moving and unsnapping snaps.
Sleep: he is sleeping between 10-12hrs a night plus naps during the day.

Christmas and kid updates

Christmas:

This year I thought would be terrible due to recently moving and no job but at the last second, we had money for shopping. Tristan got (from both myself and friends/family): a spiderman chair, Avengers shirts and sweater, more clothes and socks, tons of blocks, puzzles, toy guitar, a pillow pet, and more toys. Emmett got tons of clothes, a musical seahorse, teething rings, teething books, pillow pet, stuffed animals, and a crib bumper. Everyone played pass the baby with Emmett and he loved it. Sadly though I didn't get any pictures.

3 years old:

Height: 37in
Weight: 36lbs
Clothing/ Shoes: 4/5s and 5t, some 4t pants and size 10wide shoes

His language is rapidly growing and he really does have my attitude. He is obsessed with Iron Man and the Hulk and his wardrobe consists of mainly superhero stuff.

3 months old:

Height: unknown
Weight: 14lbs 8oz
Clothing size: 3-6 months onesies, sleepers, overalls, and sweaters. 0-3 months pants and some sweaters and vests.

Sleep: 11pm-5am (bottle) then sleeps again til about 8-9am and then a couple naps during the day.

His head control is so much better now, he's still lazy about rolling over but he can do it. He's always full of smiles.

so chunky!

took 3 months to get this kind of picture :)

Sorry everyone for not posting sooner. Everything is still hectic and we still don't have internet. Oh I recently have become a fan of the Hunger Games books... it's an addiction.

2 months old

 So my 6 week visit ended up 8 weeks after having Emmett. I currently weigh 154lbs (because I gained back weight a fter Thanksgiving).

 Anywho here's Emmett's 2 month post:

Height/ Weight: 23.5in and 11lbs 12oz

Milestones: Holding up head pretty well, coos, smiles, drinks 6oz bottles, almost sleeping from 9pm til 7am (he's been skipping his 2am bottle).

Loves: His bouncer, Tristan, music

Clothes: 0-3 months but it's looking like that will only last 1 more month and size 1 diapers

Patriots boy :)

a little show on how much he's grown. Halloween sleeper is at 1 month and  blue sleeper is at 2 months.

Here's Tristan at 2 months, Tristan was darker and had so much more hair

Wordless Wednesday: pictures of things you've missed

A combination of post updates :)

So this post will combine a few things: Halloween picture post, Emmett's 1 month post, Tristan's speech update, and an update on our lives currently so here you go:


Our Lives and Tristan's speech: 

So right now we are still working on our housing situation and are hoping to have a house within the next week or so! I cannot wait to start Christmas shopping and decorating and getting our lives back to normal. Things have been very hectic with Tristan hating being cooped up in a hotel room, Emmett having thrush, filing for child support, a funeral, and other stuff so I'm ready for our lives to get back to normal again. I have currently lost 25lbs so far since having Emmett so I'm very glad about that. Eventually I will get around to Emmett's birth post once things are less stressful. Tristan's speech has improved majorly and he's now using 3-5 word sentences!! I'm so proud of him. He now knows his animals, animal sounds, and body parts. He's also now almost out of 4t and completely into 4/5s in boys and 5t clothing. He's so big now and it's all height.

Halloween:

So my friend took Tristan trick or treating this year and Emmett and I stayed home. He was Iron Man  due to his new love of the superhero. I got his costume at Goodwill for 37 cents and his grandpa got his mask for $5 so we did good this year. 

Emmett's 1st Halloween!

Mommy's little Iron Man

Emmett's 1 month update:

Height/ Weight: 9lbs 3oz and 21.5in long

Milestones: Holding up his head pretty well, slowly working his way to 6oz per feeding of formula, and we've caught a few smiles. 

Emmett Matthew

Sorry to anyone I was supposed to write or talk to but I currently don't have internet and I'm writing this at the public library but I wanted to let you all know something :)
