An update about the boys

Sweetpea and Squeaker keep growing. And fast. more after the break


Sweetpea

He is really paying attention to things. For instance, we watched a two hour movie with him last night, and he was responding to the characters and even feeling for them. He also will look at a picture and tell me if the person (or animal) is crying, angry, or sleeping. The person may not be doing any of those things... but I think it is cute and adorable.

He is also trying to count. "5,6,7,8,2, 5,6! 5,6 !!"

Things are "Punny" like Miss Rachel (punny=funny). He still likes "mobies" (movies, we lost boobies, thankfully!). And he says the word "cute" in such a way, it warms your heart. He also knows when to use that word. Sunday morning when My Beloved shaved his face with Sweetpea watching. Sweetpea reached to touch his face and said "your cute". He also tells us when babies are cute, and when mommy is cute.

He loves animals, dinosaurs, cars, and emergency vehicles.

Rolled up pieces of paper and sticks become swords.

He can put his own shoes on (not always on the right foot tho) and he can almost dress himself. He is growing so fast!

Oh, and one more story. There is a picture above, the one of him in the green hat, shirt, and tie. Well, last night he came into the kitchen and said "Look Mom, I'm Jr.!" (Jr. being Jr. Asparagus from Veggi Tales). He noticed earlier in the day Jr.'s hat and I guess it stuck! :D So I got a picture of that so I would never forget, and so I could share the story with you too!

Squeaker
With Squeaker being a baby still, there is not much to report on him. At seven and a half months, he is quickly entering toddler hood.

He eats solid food. His favorite is green beans and peas with barley (mashed of course).

He is officially crawling. He started two weeks ago.

He just started to pull himself up on things. This started Saturday night.

He is getting into things. This started when he got moving.

He is can sign the word "bottle". His first word. And he does it while squeaking too!

He is getting a tooth (or teeth). Pray for me. It's rough.

He wants to be like his big brother. I can see it in his eyes.

You'll see a picture of him looking at a brown bear. He loves that bear, it's funny to watch him play with it, he has a special tone of voice for it and everything :D.

Thats all for now. Hopefully I can have another update in a month or so. Thanks for reading. :D
