Double Digits!



Age: Molley is 10 months old
Weight: She is about 22 lbs

Length: 28 inches
Sizes: She is in size 3 diapers. We just changed over to 12 month clothes. They are big, but 9-12 months is a size that is hard to find. 
Eyes: I thought they were changing to brown, but they've stopped. Hazel maybe?
Hair: Dark brown
Sleeping: Well, we've reverted back to not sleeping all night and needing a bottle again on some nights, and some nights she sleeps all night. Just depends on her mood.
Eating: She still likes it. :) She's been getting more and more table foods and loving it. Still hates her sippy cup though.
Milestones: She is starting to mimic some. If I shake my head no, she will do the same. Yes is harder for her to do. She also cut her first tooth!
Memorable outings: We went to TeTe's house to swim - talk about love. I also celebrated my first Mother's Day as a mommy of two.
Favorite toys/activities:  Spinning. She loves to spin around in her exersaucer. She refuses to crawl, but can scoot and get anywhere she needs to be.
Words/sounds: Just dada. It's growing on me.
Nicknames: Sweet Pea, Molley-Molls, MuMu
Funny moments: I walked by one day to see David dropping his cars on the floor and Molley historically laughing. "It's not funny Molley, stop laughing" as he starts to laugh and keeps doing it. He loves to get her giggling, and he is just about the only one who can.
Looking forward to: hearing mama, getting her to do more signs

You've got the beat

David loves the music at church. Loves. Even though we don't use hymnals in our service, he is always opening one up and following along. It's rather adorable. He tries so hard to follow and gets very upset if you try to interrupt him.



 

 
Today though, he took the following along to a whole other level - he not only followed, but he grooved to the beat. You can't hear it, but he also added some "oooo's" of his own. My little guy...aspiring musician!

9 Months



No mommy, I will NOT smile for your camera.

Age: Molley is 9 months old
Weight: 20lbs 3oz

Length: 28 inches
Sizes: She is in size 3 diapers and 6-9 month clothes.
Eyes: They are changing from blue grey color to a brown.
Hair: Dark brown...it's getting longer!
Sleeping: She does it! She sleeps through the night most nights!! She moves a lot, so some nights she gets her self stuck in the corner of the crib and can't get out. A quick flip and move down and she's good to go. Now if we could just get her brother to stay in bed..
Eating: She eats 3 meals a day, and takes 2 5oz bottles during the day, and an 8-10oz bottle before bed.
Milestones: She is bearing weight on her feet and is starting to stand more (with my help, of course.) She can also drink out of a cup with a straw.
Memorable outings: Spring break! We went to the zoo, Children's Museum, Connor Prairie, Ft. Ben. She celebrated her first Easter.
Favorite toys/activities:  She loves anything that you put in front of her
Words/sounds: Dada...a lot of dada
Nicknames: Sweet Pea, Molley-Molls, MuMu
Funny moments: I tried to take Molley out of her high chair before she was done with her puffs. My hand got slapped. Guess you don't come between her and her puffs.
Looking forward to: Hearing mama :)

Easter

Easter has come and gone and thankfully we had some good weather, after a long, cold winter. David had talked at school (and church) for weeks about Easter and what it meant. He was so excited when it was finally here!

Photo bomb ahead.

David's basket (note the lack of candy - he made out like a bandit at school and at the church Easter egg hunt. The bunny decided to not leave much at our house.)


Molley's basket


HOTWHEELS!! (My son is a car snob. He will only play with Hotwheels cars.)





At least they are looking the same way. (I love this picture.)


This is as good as it gets with both kids looking at the camera.
 







Ready to hunt!


These fools think we're all going to smile at the camera at the same time. Silly adults!
