2 Months

Weston had his 2 month check-up this week. He weighs 11 pounds, 5 ounces (40th percentile) and is 23.75 inches long (79th percentile). We feel like he just about doubled in size over the last week. He has been eating non-stop and is so long now that I had to go dig the 3 month clothes out of storage already. He is really starting to smile a lot now and "talks" to us with those great little baby coos.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! Despite it being a busy and crazy holiday season for us, I still love Christmas. From decorating gingerbread houses and cookies, to putting up a tree, to playing with new presents, I love it all! It's a lot of fun now that Alex is old enough to really get into it too.

Gleason's

Last week I took Alex (and Weston) to toddler open gym time at a gymnastics place called Gleason's with our friends Henry and Heidi. It was a blast! Alex and Henry had so much fun hanging from bars, jumping on the trampolines, climbing over obstacles, and jumping into the foam pit. I was thankful to have Heidi there to help keep track of Alex! It was also fun to watch Henry as he is such a natural little gymnast/monkey but unfortunately I didn't get any good pictures of him in action.

Texas Trip

Earlier this month we survived our trip to Texas for Matt and Jill's wedding with our two munchkins. I don't think it's possible to make a trip like that stress-free with a newborn and a toddler but both boys did great on both flights as well as the day of the wedding. Hopefully I will come up with some wedding pictures to post soon. In the meantime, here are some pictures from our visit to see Santa. Bass Pro Shop had a lot of little activities set up, including free pictures with Santa, so we made a fun morning out of it.

Jumps and Downs

Alex and Henry had a joint birthday party this year at a place called Jumps and Downs. It was a great place to have a party and everyone had a great time. I think I might be done hosting kid birthday parties at our house because this was so much easier!

1 Month

It's hard to believe our little guy is over a month old already!

Happy 3rd Birthday, Alex!

We celebrated Alex's 3rd birthday with a family birthday party at Mimi and Papa's house last weekend. Alex got to spend a lot of time with Greta. These cousins are a riot together.

Best/worst smiles ever!

Lovely green frosting tongues. Alex was very

excited about his "chocolate dinosaur cake."
