3 Month Post

It's late and I am feeling tired today so bare with me if there is spelling mistakes and I sound a little loopy. Hard to believe we are half way through K's 3rd Month....before we know it he will be 4 months old already!

The days are long..long due to being so busy..fun but busy. I do not have enough time in a day currently. Soon things will change and we will be onto new adventures like solids. I will be missing all the milk time cuddles and spit up I once smelled like. Sounds gross but unless your a mom..you truly would not understand why it is okay to be "Spilled On" as my nephews call it.

K is a happy guy! Full of drool, spit up and babbles but happy. Most days fly by since we are go go go but we are happy! He is growing so fast. He spits up quite regularly but I believe that is due to all the spit he swallowing..lack there of pooping some days and teeth! Glorious Freaking Baby Teeth. You know those pearly whites beneath the gum line that magically turn your baby into a drooly pain filled biting monster. We spit up quite a bit but he is growing and happy so its all good. K is currently rocking his Baltic Amber Teething Necklace. We put the necklace on the dapper lad just before he turned 3 months..the magical age all my children start to teeth.

The head control he has amazes me each day. He is starting to do more tummy time when we are awake long enough. looking around at the world around him. Probably quite scary at times since his siblings run on the click flooring a mile a minute. We have slept for most of a week through the night after our 10/10:30 feed until anywhere from 4:30-8am. Usually waking between 5-6. K must be growing since I had to put his NB and 0-3month clothes mostly away due to he is starting to need to be in 3-6months clothing already. The other night  I had to inform K we are not giggling and playing at 3am! Thankfully he went back to sleep for the night after being fixed. Things are looking up. He often falls asleep in the day if playing in is floor toy.

Captain O:
 O is talking all over. My parrot! I gave him his first ever buzzed hair cut this past month. He now looks just like his dad. Daddy told him either He needed to grow his hair longer or O did. Funny boys! I guess my dh did not realize how much they looked alike until I cut O's hair. Handsome like daddy just the same. Currently O has his pointer teeth taking their sweet time. The poor boy is crying in the middle of the night. If its not one kid in our house it is another waking us up for one reason or another. The other day we brought O into our bed since Daddy had been up with work until 2am and O got up around 4am. After Daddy falling asleep standing up. Currently I am trying to type this and falling alseep on the couch in and out beside my working/sleeping husband. We got vocab repeating, wiggling and very little sleep until wake up time. HOT POOP is a regular thing for O to tell me while changing his diaper..even if it's just a pee bum. Also he will ask to have the Toons on..if the tv is off.

Miss E:
Holy Crack-a-lackin We signed up E/registered her for JK today where we moved to. Hard to believe that she will be going to school this upcoming fall. She is growing like a bad weed also. Very polite.  Bathroom ordeals are getting better depending on the day. I find when I say I do not know how and ask her if she shows me she will go. A lot of time now she tells us when she has to go. Lately we want to pick out our clothes and try to help getting dressed. We love to help! Eating veggies is also happening folks. SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! You heard me right your ears do not need to be checked. We will not each raw carrots, celery, baby sugar snap peas, cooked broccoli , peppers and potato depending on how its cooked. Just recently we have been working on school info we need to know like ABC's , Colours which she knew and counting. Trick to getting her to stay in her room in the morning is for Daddy to tell her he will wake her up in the morning.

Well the time of the night where I make more milk has arrived..pump time. Soon followed by Feeding and bed. Another day of our blessed  busy life. Shout Out to my Hubby who just turned 34 this past weekend. xoxo The Brants

K's 2 month post!

hey y'all,
A week Monday we finally got to go to K's 2 month checkup. He was already 2 1/2 months so we
Do not go back now until he is almost 4 months. He is doing very well weighing in at just under 12 pounds. Growing like a weed is what they say right.

K is starting to become more vocal. Smiling and cooing while playing in his toy and when you ask for smiles he will gladly give them to you. His head control is amazing and is adapting well to the new house so far.

We still have in the play yard to sleep with us until he is sleeping through the night. He has done a couple nights where he has slept all the way through but not consistently. When we went up for our appointment My dh went back to the house one last time for a once over and to patch a wall. I also had my post baby check. So K got to cuddle with our awesome nurse. Apparently he smiled and cooed the whole time. He got a oral med and two needles this past doctors visit. Surprisingly took them very well until the one that stings went in. Which is to be expected.


Lately K has been starting to organize his feeds a bit better. Sometimes we are making it 4hr spans again. He is having more awake time lately. Sometime being up for almost 2 before another small nap  until another bottle. K does amazing with his bottles. We just have to watch his brother so he does not steal them.

Between all the chaos I have not had much time to write. To tell you the truth... There is so much unpacking to be done. We had to search for the Easter stuff and just got K using the baby swing for the first time since he has been born. It was packed and we had not enough space before on the moving process.

Lack of sleep is not giving me much time to even think about blogging. I will try to do my best to be more on top of it and definitely post new pics. It definitely has been awhile. Everyone is doing great. E and O are asjusting. Not sure how much I like the free range for O yet and they all have been up really early being so close.  A small update is better than none. Love to all.
