We had a total of 4 egg hunts which was great considering the boys were all about it this year. Well, Henry was all about hunting the eggs and Charlie was more concerned with what was in them... :)<br />

We celebrated with Ryan's family the Sunday before Easter. All 12 grandkids were there which rarely happens these days and Henry was beyond excited to play with Jack and Harry. </div>

That week we had an egg hunt at their school. Again, Charlie was more into checking out the candy in the eggs than actually picking them up but Henry filled his basket pretty quick. </div>

We had brunch at my parents club the Saturday before Easter which was a blast. They had chicks and bunnies for the kids which was a great idea. Henry wasn't so sure about the bunny and said it was biting his basket...<br />

I still plan to do updates on both of the boys and post about our recent trip to Napa but in the meantime I want to do a quick recap of our afternoon. It was unexpected but so much fun and I loved all the memories we made. Henry was planning to help Ryan wash his car and Charlie and I were going to head to the grocery store. Henry has always loved helping Ryan with this but I was not expecting Charlie to be such a fan. As soon as Henry turned on the water Charlie was giggling and squealing and had to be right next to it. It was a warm afternoon for February so I decided to just go with it and let him get wet. Next thing I know he is soaked and running around without his shirt. He was even eating the soap at one point. I imagine we'll be spending a lot of time this summer running through the sprinklers :)<br />

Honestly, I had really low expectations of how they would turn out with an almost one year old and almost three year old but they turned out great. I was hoping to get some good individual shots of both boys at this age and not only did we get that, we got a few great ones of the two of them together and the four of us. I'm truly grateful for the images that <a href="http://www.kristiemillsphotography.com/">Kristie Mills</a> captured of us at this stage in our lives :)<br />

We came home later that evening and tucked the boys in bed. Santa got to work and set out a few things for the next morning. Henry had asked Santa this year for trucks and even though he did not get a big truck at our house, he was pretty excited when he saw that he brought him a new blower and a weed eater :)</div>

It was a challenging year as we were trying to figure out life with two little boys while both of us worked full time but we survived. Ryan and I both celebrated our 30th birthday this past year and Henry turned 3 and Charlie 1. We also managed to take a few fabulous trips with friends and family. I think my favorite memories though are the moments at home with our family and watching Charlie and Henry learn to play together.

I look forward to this night every year as it's so fun to get together with our friends during the holiday season and I love to see how much our group has grown. It's hard to believe this is our 6th annual dinner and our group has grown by 4!<br />

This past month has flown by and it's hard to believe that it is already Christmas Eve. We have had so much fun with the boys this season and I love to see the excitement through through their eyes. I have taken quite a few pictures, with both my phone and camera, and want to make sure I capture all of these memories in a post. I apologize in advance for the amount of pictures below!<br />

I'm not sure how many years we can get away with doing this but it worked out great! <br />
<br />
Thanks to Pinterest, we came up with the idea of a camping theme which was perfect for the boys. There are so many cute ideas out there and I think we pulled off a pretty cute camping party, mostly thanks to my mom for her craftiness :)<br />

How is it possible that you will be one in less than a month?!? At eleven months you weigh 20 pounds and are wearing size 12-18 month clothes. You continue to take 3-4 bottles a day and I know we are going to have a hard time weaning you off a bottle here soon and putting you on whole milk. Not much progress on the eating front as you continue to not show an interest in real food. This has been pretty frustrating but I know you will get there. You mostly want baby food and lately you would prefer to eat this out of a pouch yourself than us spoon feeding you. You still love puffs but that is the only semi-solid food you like to pick up.<br />

You have started taking a few steps at a time but still prefer crawling to get around. We bought you shoes recently which I think really has helped. Especially since you always want to be outside next to Henry.<br />

Speaking of Henry, watching you and your brother is seriously the best. He adores you and is always talking about his little brother Charlie. You typically want to be right near him and playing with his toys and you get frustrated when you can't keep him. Won't be long though until you are running right beside him!<br />

We have had a few challenges this month with teething being the biggest one. You finally have three teeth that have popped through with another one on the way. Your hands are always in your mouth and you are constantly drooling. Not to mention, extremely fussy, especially in he evenings. I don't remember Henry having this much trouble with it but just like everything else, you have proved to very different than your brother. Going outside is one way we can distract you from this pain!<br />

Now on to the dreaded sleep subject... one day you will sleep through the night and that is all that matters. You are really close and most of the time make it until 4 or 5 am and will take a bottle and then go back to sleep for a bit. I know teething has been bothering you lately which is part of the reason for your 2 am wake ups. As for naps, you mostly take one, two hour, nap at daycare. I'm surprised you are not sleeping more during the day and on some weekends you will give us two naps but not always. You are also becoming a pacifier boy and want this at night and during the day when you're fussy.<br />

You are such a mama's boy and I love it! Most of the time... I love when you reach for me and come over to me to be held. You also love to snuggle your head into my shoulder which is so sweet. This can be a little tricky though when I'm trying to get dressed or cook dinner but for the most part I'm not complaining. You can also say mama which is your only word! A few of your other tricks are waving to people and signing for a bottle. <br />

Charlie boy, while this month had a few bumps with you teething, it is always such a joy to be around you. You have the best smile and laugh and are such a happy boy. I can't believe that we are celebrating your first birthday in just a few weeks!!<br />

He talked about trick or treating for weeks and couldn't wait to be a "Fireman". They had a costume parade at school and Henry insisted on wearing his costume that morning even though the parade wasn't until the afternoon. <br />

I didn't get any other pics at this point since it was dark and we were busy going door to door. It was such a great night and I loved watching Halloween through Henry's eyes. He was so excited to say trick or treat and loved trying to keep up with the older boys down the street. Charlie was also quite the trooper and hung out in his stroller most of the night. <br />
<br />
It was such a great day and I can't imagine how fun it will be next year with two boys running around!<br />

You are such a happy boy and always have a smile on your face. You are even more mobile than before but not yet walking. You cruise along the couch and have no problem pulling up on any furniture or even against the wall. We will catch you standing on your own for a few seconds so your balance continues to get better.<br />

You weigh 20 pounds and are wearing size 12 month clothes. You are taking 4 bottles a day with 7 ounces in each. You are also eating three times a day and an afternoon snack. You LOVE puffs and have no problem eating those. However, you do not seem too interested in other foods that you would pick up so we continue to spoon feed you baby food for your meals. I continue to place things in front of you and I know one day you'll show more of an interest in eating solids. <br />

Sleeping is getting better and you go down between 7:30-8 at night and can usually make it until 4 or 5 before waking up. We will usually give you a bottle and sometimes you go back to sleep or you may be up for the day. You are also taking two naps a day. Usually you go down around 10 am and will sleep two hours and then take another shorter nap in the afternoon. <br />

Your personality is really coming out and you are so different than your brother! You are aggressive, fearless and such a determined little boy. You love to wrestle with your brother and at this point Henry just laughs. I imagine that will change in a few years when you really are beating him up :) <br />

Speaking of Henry, you absolutely adore your brother and he feels the same way about you. We love watching the two of you interact and you both get so excited to see each other in the mornings. You constantly want to play with his toys which doesn't always go over well....<br />

At ten months you do not have any teeth and I was sure you would have at least a few based on the amount of drooling you've been doing the past few months. I have to say I love your gummy grin though so I'm OK if you hold out a little longer. <br />

Bath time is always a favorite time for you, especially if it involves your brother. The two of you splash and giggle and water will be all over the room. Hard to get mad though when I see how much fun you're having. <br />

The service was at 11 and we were thankful that most of our family was able to attend. Several others were being baptized that day and when we were waiting in line up front I was a little nervous how Charlie would do. He started "chatting" and making motor boat sounds and I was glad we had brought the pacifier up there with us to keep him quiet until his turn. Henry was also up there with us and did such a great job. After Charlie was baptized the pastor turned him to the congregation and he gave such a great smile to everyone. It was definitely a moment I won't forget!<br />

After the service we had everyone back over to our house for lunch. Charlie slept for some of his party and then was a little shy when he woke up. He seems to be pretty timid with a crowd but Henry didn't have any issues as usual. Henry loved having other kids around to play with him and spent most of the afternoon running around outside.<br />

You turned nine months old last Saturday and I'm having a hard time believing it. Not too much longer and we'll be planning your first birthday party! <br />
<br />
Monthly pictures in your chair are no longer possible. I attempted a few and quickly realized that I would not get any pictures of you posing with a smile and that it was very likely you would do a nose dive into the floor if I didn't have my hands on you. We decided to move to the crib for pictures :) <br />

You weigh about 19 pounds and are pure muscle! You are wearing size 9 and 12 month clothes and wearing the last of the size 3 diapers we have. You are taking 5 bottles a day and are eating baby food three times a day. You are finally able to eat puffs without gagging but still don't have much of an interest in actual food. You do not have any teeth yet but I'm thinking soon considering how much you are drooling!<br />

You are happy, happy, happy and I love when we get notes from daycare saying how much you love to smile and laugh. It's never easy leaving you all day but it helps when I know that you are doing so well and seem to be so loved by the ladies taking care of you.<br />
<br />
You had another case of Hand Foot Mouth this past month and thankfully it wasn't anything near like the last time. You actually had a low grade fever one Sunday and that Monday I had a call from school saying you had a few spots on your feet and around your chin. A few other kids in your class had this and you picked it up as well. It didn't seem to phase you though as you were all smiles as usual :)<br />

This past month we had you baptized! We had attempted a few months ago but due to your first and much more severe case of Hand Foot Mouth we put it off until August. It was such a great day and we were so blessed to share this special day with family.<br />

You have a new favorite game of peek-a-boo! You love to hide behind the wall and pop your head out with the biggest grin. You also love to play this with a blanket and you cover your face when we ask "Where's Charlie?!?" <br />

You started crawling last month and this month you are cruising along the couch and coffee table. We have also caught you pulling away from the table and standing on your own for a few seconds. It's hard for me to believe but I think you'll be walking in the next 6 weeks or so. You've even started climbing the stairs which scares me to death. You are hitting these milestones too quickly for me but I know you are just trying to keep up with your big brother.<br />

Bath time is a favorite of yours and you could stay in there forever You love to splash around and laugh and you love it even more if Henry joins you. The bathroom walls (and my clothes) are always soaked when we get you it. <br />

You absolutely adore your big brother. He loves to drive his Lightening McQueen car around the island and you love to chase him. You are both giggling and squealing and it's so fun to watch you interact. You are constantly trying to keep up with him and want to be right beside him at all times. <br />

You have started noticing (more like chewing) books but your favorite toy is any type of ball. You love to push a ball around the room and squeal as you crawl really fast to go get it. They say you do this at daycare all day long and even push balls back and forth between another little boy. <br />
<br />
I can't avoid the sleep update and unfortunately it's about the same as always. Nothing consistent and sometimes you sleep through the night but not often. You typically make it until 3 or 4 am and we will either give you a paci and rock you back to sleep or give you a bottle. We can typically tell by your cry if you are hungry or not. If you take a bottle you will normally sleep until 6:30 or 7 but if you sleep all night you're normally up for the day between 5 and 5:30. <br />

A chance to escape the Houston heat in July?? We quickly said yes and I'm so thankful for that decision as it was one of the best trips we've had in awhile. They had never been to Michigan but had heard great things about the area and their only requirement when looking for a vacation rental was on the water. They ended up finding a house in Manistee, MI and it did not disappoint. The house was a little outdated on the inside but the outside more than made up for the the small shower and crummy beds.<br />
<br />
I have to admit I was very anxious about traveling with two little ones and all the "gear" that we required but surprisingly, it wasn't that bad. We had two huge suitcases, two car seats, two strollers, two carry on bags and golf clubs. We could have taken one less stroller since Henry decided he was too big for that and wanted to walk everywhere. Lesson learned.<br />
<br />

<br />
I was also pretty anxious on how the flight would go and the plan was for Charlie and I to sit in the single seat and Ryan and Henry to be across the aisle from us. Our plans changed slightly when they had to move us due to the number of breathing masks above each seat so I ended up with both boys and Ryan got off the hook. Thankfully both boys were great! Charlie quickly fell asleep as soon as we took off and Henry was pretty content watching the movie Planes on the iPad. <br />

We flew into Grand Rapids, MI and had another two hour drive to Manistee. Both boys did pretty well again except for the last 20 minutes. I think we were all a little restless and eager to get there after a long day of traveling. The rest of the crew was waiting outside when we pulled up and we
immediately went out back and down the stairs to the beach. This was
Henry's first time in the sand and he seemed to love it.<br />

The view from our backyard was spectacular and one of my favorite
memories from the trip was watching this beautiful sunset the first night we
were there. All of the kids were running around in the backyard, the
temperature was perfect, we had music on and a cold drink in our hands. It
was definitely a good start to the week :)<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Henry was a little shy when we first arrived but quickly warmed up
to this crew. It didn't take long until he was right in the mix and hanging with the older boys. </div>

We also snapped this picture while at the Dunes. I can't say
it's the best picture we have taken but I still love it. It sums up the
stage of life we are in right now. Henry was a mess and was more interested
in touching Ryan with his candy cane and Charlie wouldn't get his fingers out
of his mouth. I'm also pretty sure I didn't even shower that morning but
it didn't matter. We were having a good time and enjoying the time all
together. <span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><br />

Ryan and Chris played golf that afternoon and Robyn and I drove
all 6 kids back home from the Dunes. It was a memorable drive (think
babies crying, boys fighting and us pulling over to mediate the argument) but
we made it back and opened up a cold one and took the crew down the beach to
burn off some energy. With the two of us and 6 kids in/near the water we
weren't able to take our eyes off them and take many pictures but I did manage
to snap this one of sweet Charlie enjoying the waves. <span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

We picked up a few kites at the dollar store and went out to the beach for the afternoon. It was another beautiful day with perfect temps. <br />

I attempted to get a picture of both boys on the beach looking at the camera but I should have known that wouldn't happen. I had to settle for some action pics which I think are pretty cute anyways. <br />

Our attempt at a group shot of all the cousins. Henry was not happy that we made him stop playing with his dump truck and take a picture. I do love this picture though as everyone looks so happy... minus Henry :) <br />

We thought it was going to rain that afternoon but it held off. We went down to the beach for a little bit but it was really windy and even chilly. I was hoping to get another picture of our boys but once again, Henry was not cooperating. Charlie is always up for a smile though.<br />

All in all, it was a fabulous vacation and I'm so thankful we were able to go. Yes, at times it got a little crazy but for the most part it was relaxing and just what we needed. I'm hoping we can continue this tradition and head back that way next summer!<br />

I know I say how great every month is but seriously this month has been a blast. I forgot how much fun it gets when you are sitting up, crawling and even babbling. I love watching your personality come out and I can never get enough of that sweet smile. We took your eight month pictures in a romper that your dad's Aunt Marilynn made for Henry. The outfit was made out of your Grandpa's work shirt and I love that you both have been able to wear this as babies. <br />

You are officially crawling and boy are you fast!! I was so worried you would start crawling before our trip and thankfully you held off. You were able to scoot around but nothing like what you are doing today. As soon as you spot something you want you are determined to get it. You are crawling about 6 weeks earlier than Henry was which makes me think you'll be walking much earlier too. Henry was an army crawler at first and you skipped that and went straight to crawling. You are also so strong and can even pull up on furniture. I imagine by next month you'll be cruising along the couch. <br />

You weigh 18 pounds and are 27 1/2 inches long. About 40th percentile for both height and weight. You are wearing size 6-12 month clothes and 9 months but I think we're about to be in 12 months here soon. <br />

You went on your first vacation this month and we traveled to Manistee, Michigan to meet your cousins for 5 nights. You were such a great traveler and did great on the plane. We had so much fun playing at the beach on Lake Michigan and hanging out with everyone. <br />

You seriously were so happy and content on the trip which was such a relief to me. I was worried how you would adjust to the change of scenery and you were great. We did have issues with you going to sleep at night since it didn't get dark until almost 10 pm but other than that we had no major complaints. <br />

Speaking of sleep, I wish I could report that you are sleeping through the night but that's not the case yet. You had a few good nights but then being on vacation messed you up again. You slept in a pack 'n play while we were there and then normally ended up in our bed which we never do at home. Of course you were all off when we got home so we're working on this again. <br />

The other struggle we've had this month is eating. You continue to take 5-6 bottles a day of about 6 ounces. We also give you baby food twice a day but that's about it. You are picky about what you want and you are pretty good with fruits but not so thrilled about veggies and meats. You also do not take puffs or any type of solid food well. You end up gagging and then throwing up which is pretty awesome. Your doctor doesn't seem too concerned as it takes some babies longer to learn how to eat but it sure is a pain as it seems you are gagging and then projectile vomiting at least once a day. We've learned to move close to a sink when we start seeing the warning signs!<br />

You've always been a mamma's boy and it's really showing this past month. You are not OK with being on the floor and me walking by without picking you up. Your dad typically drops you off at daycare in the mornings and one day I did this. You were not OK with me leaving which made me so sad. It's so hard being away from you boys all day and it breaks my heart when you cry when I leave you!<br />

You are such a handsome little boy and have the best grin. Have I mentioned that before?!? ;) You love to play with your brother's toys (against his wishes) and he was not a fan of you riding in his truck. I can only imagine the two of you driving around in a truck when you're older!<br />

You are drooling quite a bit but still no teeth. Henry was closer to 10 months when his first tooth popped through so you may be close to that. There are days where I think you are teething since you seem fussy but no teeth so who knows. <br />

Benny is also your best friend and I love seeing you try to play with him. He loves to give you big kisses and thankfully you don't mind. I'm also thankful he is so good with you and tolerates you pulling on his ears and playing with his feet. <br />

You are just like your brother and love to be outside. You've started crying when I open the door to let Benny out yet we don't go out. It's been so hot lately so I'm looking forward to this fall when we can spend more time taking walks and playing outside. </div>

Charlie Boy, this has been the best month yet and we are absolutely loving your personality. You are such a happy and easy-going baby (despite the not great sleep and throwing up...) and we are loving life with you. It's hard for me to believe you are 8 months old but as always, I'm looking forward to what's to come!</div>

We did still go to my parents though and had such a relaxing day. <br />
<br />
We spent most of the afternoon in the pool, ate a delicious meal for dinner and even had a mini firework show in the evening :)<br />

You weigh about 17 1/2 pounds and are wearing size 6-9 or 6-12 month clothes. You are still taking 5-6 bottles a day with 6 ounces of formula and are eating food in the morning and at night. You are eating pureed food and so far you do not seem to be too picky. I have tried a few puffs and yogurt melts but you do not seem too interested in that yet.<br />
<br />
You continue to love the water and are very content hanging out in your float. This is great since your brother requires so much attention around the pool now!<br />

We had several firsts this month including one that I hope doesn't repeat. You came down with Hand-Foot-Mouth disease and it was awful! Your poor face was covered in red spots and your hands and feet had terrible blisters. You can't see it in the picture but your chin was the worst. Your chin periodically breaks out and is red from drooling anyways and when you add that to HFM, your chin was so inflamed. Your pediatrician deemed this to be "As bad as it gets for Hand-Foot-Mouth" and it was a good 10 days before your skin cleared up. You were out of daycare for a couple of days since this is highly contagious and thankfully no one else in the family picked this up. We were supposed to get you baptized during the middle of this but moved the date back to August. For as bad as your skin looked and the blisters that you had, you were still smiling and in good spirits for the most part. <br />

We love watching the relationship between you and your brother and while it excites me, it also makes me nervous for the years to come. Your brother is always being silly around you and you just love to laugh and smile at him. Of course this only encourages his silly behavior and while right now I have a hard time holding back my giggles as well, I know I may not feel this way in years to come when you're both acting up. <br />

You are sitting up like a pro which makes life so much easier! You love to be on your mat playing with your toys and you're happy as long as I'm in your eyesight. You are such a mamma's boy and I have to say that I love it. There are times that I wish you would be content with someone else holding you but there is nothing better when your eyes follow my every move and the smile that comes across your face when you realize I am coming to pick you up. <br />

So one topic I cannot ignore is sleep. You are so different than your brother here and I'm continually reminding myself that one day we will all sleep and that this is just a phase. I truly thought we were over the sleep hurdle when we had a solid 6 nights where you slept through the night. You were out of a swaddle (finally!) and sleeping in a sleep sack and were doing great. Then the dreaded HFM disease hit and you were back to waking up at night. Of course I had to rock you since I knew you were uncomfortable and I fed you since you were not eating much during the day. This of course created a new habit and we are back to square one with you waking up again at night and then up for the day between 5-6 am. On a positive note, you are napping in your crib! We are working on a routine but I can usually get you to nap once or twice a day for at least 30 minutes or more. You still take quite a few short naps in the car but it seems to be working for now.<br />

Another first is transitioning you to the duck float in the bath. You love to sit in here and splash around and play with toys. Usually the bath toys end up in your mouth but that seems to be the case with all your toys at the moment. You do not have any teeth yet but I would guess we are close with the amount of drooling that is going on.<br />

You have not started crawling yet but are so close. You can definitely get around by scooting when you are sitting up so I imagine it's only a matter of time until you start crawling. You seem to be much more active than your brother at this age which is a little terrifying since he can be pretty crazy but I imagine that you are simply trying to keep up with him. You are always trying to grab his cars and trucks instead of your baby toys in front of you which only frustrates him since he's having to learn a new lesson of sharing at home.<br />

We are so excited for Alison and Mark and had a blast putting this shower together. Alison and Mark are not finding out the gender (which I love but could never do!!) so we decided to go with a mint and gold color scheme for all the party decor. <br />
<br />
My mom generously offered to let us host the shower at her house and we took her up on that! I also have to give her a lot of credit for the cute party decor.

We found the invitations at <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/184189709/mint-green-gold-baby-shower-invitation?ref=listing-2">Etsy</a> which really set the tone for the shower. The invitation was very classy and we loved the colors. Seemed to be the perfect invite for the classy mom-to-be! <br />

We decided to keep things easy and ordered most of the food from <a href="http://www.hubbellandhudson.com/">Hubell & Hudson</a>. This was seriously the best idea since the food was delicious and we didn't have to worry about any food prep. We both had to work the day before the shower and knew it would be difficult trying to get it all together, especially since we both have little ones at home!<br />

For dessert we ordered macaroons from <a href="http://www.macaronbypatisse.com/#about">Macarons by Patisse</a> and they were absolutely delicious! They have so many good flavors and we kept with the color scheme when making our selection and they did not disappoint. We also offered guests to take the leftover macaroons home with them as a favor. <br />

And finally with Alison - the beautiful mom-to-be! It was such a fun day and we loved being able to spoil her for a few hours. We can't wait to find out if we'll be loving on a he or a she but either way, we're beyond excited and can't wait for her to join the Mommy club!<br />

Henry Ryan... you are two and a half years old!</div>
<br />
I have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that my baby boy is two and a half. I know I've said this time and time again but seriously, this is the best age. You are so much fun and have the goofiest personality. You can be shy around people you don't know but around us and family, you are hilarious :)<br />

At two and a half, you are all boy. You're all about cars, trucks, playing in the dirt and being sweaty. I can't even imagine what you will be like as a teenager. You also want to be just like your daddy. Whenever he is mowing the grass you have to get your lawn mower out. Whenever he is blowing the dirt, you have to get your blower out. And when he is finished doing the yard, you have to place your lawn mower and blower right next to his. While I wish you were more of a mamma's boy, it's pretty cute watching you follow in your Daddy's shadow.<br />

At two and a half, you have no fear when it comes to the pool. It's completely different than last summer and you are ready to swim. You are kicking and even jumping off the side by yourself. As a mom, this is terrifying yet so exciting all at the same time. <br />

<br />
At two and a half, you like to eat. A lot. I'm pretty sure mac n'cheese is your favorite and you would eat this every night if we let you. You're also obsessed with donut holes. You stayed with your grandparents recently and you ate 12 donut holes... It doesn't surprise me but don't expect to get that much when you're with us!<br />

<br />
At two and a half, you are very chatty! It is so fun to have conversations with you and I am surprised daily with the words and phrases you have picked up and are saying. I can't say that I understand everything you say but it is close. Most of your conversations revolve around cars (whether they are fast, red, a police car...) trucks (firetrucks, dump trucks, trucks with big tires...) and playing in the mulch. You also love to watch the movie Cars and Airplanes and your favorite TV shows are Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Sheriff Callie. You're always repeating phrases and know all the characters. <br />

<br />
At two and a half, you are so full of life. You have so much energy and are truly such a happy boy. Your smile is contagious as is your belly laugh. You still do your "happy dance" whenever you are excited and it is awesome. You give the best hugs and sweet kisses. You also love your little brother which makes me so happy. I can't wait to see your friendship grow over the years. <br />

This has definitely been the best month yet! You have changed so much and we are really seeing your personality. You are such a sweet baby and seriously have the best smile. You weigh 16 1/2 pounds and are wearing 6-9 month clothes. You are in size 2 diapers but as soon as we finish this box we will move you up to size 3.<br />

We tried food again and you can't get enough of it! I started off giving you food just at night but we've giving you food in the morning now too. You have had sweet potatoes, butternut squash, carrots, apple sauce, bananas and pear. You are taking 5-6 bottles a day with 5 ounces. You always drink your bottles but you definitely seem to be taking more of an interest in food lately.<br />

I recently looked at baby pictures of your Dad and I think you two really look alike as babies. You seem to have the same body type as your dad and as I've mentioned before, you're very strong and muscular!<br />

You love to be on your tummy and will play on our mat with toys for a long time. You're also very interested in all the Disney shows that your big brother likes to watch :)<br />

Our biggest challenge with you is sleeping through the night. I have started leaving one arm out of your swaddle and that seems to be going pretty well. You still wake up sometime between 1-3 am and one of us ends up going and putting your pacifier back in your mouth. I have tried letting you cry it out but can't let you go more than just a few minutes. You then usually wake up between 4-5 am and at that point you're ready for a bottle. Once we give you a bottle though you go back to sleep for a few hours. This works out fine on the weekends when we can sleep in but the mornings are a little rough during the week.<br />
<br />
Naps are also not consistent. Some days you will take several naps and some days you barely nap at all. Most of your naps on the weekend are in your car seat and while I know we need to work on this and get you used to sleeping in your crib, it's hard because the weekend is normally when we're on the go. <br />

You went swimming for the first time this past month and I think it was a little too cold. You weren't very excited about getting your feet wet but I'm hoping you'll get used to the pool as the water warms up this summer :)<br />

I think my favorite milestone this past month is that you are sitting up! You still lose your balance every now and then so we need to make sure you're on a padded surface but I love that I can set you on the floor with a few toys are you are content. You constantly have something in your mouth so we have to make sure you are surrounded with toys with usually isn't a problem with your big brother....<br />

Speaking of big brother, you love Henry and he loves you! He is always bringing you toys and constantly wants you to hold his "Leo". You give him the biggest grins and don't even seem to mind the fact that he always wants to hold you or lay on top of you.<br />

I know I mentioned that you liked to eat but I don't think I mentioned what a messy eater you are!! I don't remember Henry making such a big mess at this age which is a little worrisome but you are definitely pretty cute. Who cares if you have carrots all over your face, chair, wall....?!?<br />

We celebrated Mother's Day this past month and I couldn't be more blessed to be the mother of you two boys. Life is a little crazy and chaotic right now but I love it and wouldn't change a thing.

And lastly, I have to include an action shot. You are ALL about the toys lately and your dad likes to call you bam bam because you're always banging your fists or toys against your body. It's pretty cute but also can be a little dangerous if you get in your line of fire...<br />

A few weeks ago Ryan went to New York City for a conference and we
decided I would fly up on Friday morning and would have the weekend in the city
together. NYC is one of our favorite destinations and we were looking
forward to a weekend away even if it was only two nights. When we have
gone before (See<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://lifewiththerudys.blogspot.com/2010/12/nyc-recap.html">here</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.lifewiththerudys.blogspot.com/2009/06/nyc-recap-part-ii.html">here</a>)
we have done more of the touristy things and this time the plan was to eat,
drink, walk and sleep. We managed to accomplish all of that :) </div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
Our first stop Friday afternoon was at<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.shakeshack.com/">Shake Shack</a>. We've eaten here every time we've gone and it is definitely a
favorite of ours. It was raining all day but it didn't stop us from

We had late dinner reservations both nights but honestly this
worked out great. We had a late start to the day on Friday so a dinner
reservation at 10 PM was just right. It's hard to imagine doing dinner
this late but that seemed to be the norm in NYC. Ryan had picked out
dinner spots for both evenings and they were great. We loved the
atmosphere at<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://aldernyc.com/">Alder</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and
the food was awesome. We would definitely recommend this! <span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

weather was gorgeous! Not a cloud in the sky and the temperature was in the
70's. One of our favorite things to do is walk on the Brooklyn Bridge and
even though it was packed we managed to fight the crowds and enjoy the views
while getting to the other side.</span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 107%;"> </span><br />

At 5 months you are happy, smiling, content and such a joy to be around! You are turning in to such a content baby boy and I'm not sure if things are just easier the second time around or if you are truly more relaxed than your brother. I'm going to go with the latter. <br />
<br />
The only thing not so great this past month has been your sleeping patterns. We've gone back and forth with trying to not use the swaddle and ultimately we ended up with you back in it. You seem to wake up with the more freedom your arms have. Your pediatrician also told me to cut out the bottle at night. She said you weigh enough and are old enough to not need this and it was time you learn to soothe yourself back to sleep. Once we cut out the night bottle you seemed to wake up every hour or two. We were constantly going up to give you your pacifier and soothe you back to sleep. We were trying not to get you out of the crib and rock you so you did not get dependent on that as well. I think we're at the "cry it out" stage so hopefully things change this next month so we can all get some more sleep!<br />
<br />
Don't be fooled by this pic.... I took this one morning right before you woke up and you were all smiles. This was a rare occasion though that you actually slept like this! <br />

At your doctors visit you weighed 15 pounds, 2 ounces and were 26 inches tall. You are in size 2 diapers and wearing mostly 6 month clothes. Your pediatrician continues to comment on how strong you are and can tell that you are a very determined little boy. She thinks you are going to struggle with wanting to be mobile but that your body won't be ready yet. Should make things interesting around here and I feel bad for your big brother. I have a feeling you'll be beating him up vs. the other way around!<br />

You still like to nap in your bouncy chair and the few attempts I have made to nap in your crib have not gone well. I have a feeling you won't fit in your bouncy chair for much longer but as long as it's working and you fit we'll keep going with it! I know eventually you will transition to your crib for your nap but it will be on your time. <br />

We brought out the jumper this past month and you love it. This has been really helpful so we don't have to hold you all the time. Now, someone needs to be near you when you are in this and we usually send your brother over there to entertain you. He loves to bounce you (which can be a little scary!) and plays with all the toys on the jumper which makes you laugh. <br />

We tried food with you this past month but you didn't seem too interested. You tolerated a few bites of sweet potato but I decided it was more work than worth it. Lately you seem to show more of an interest in things we are eating so I'll think I'll try a few other veggies and fruits this next month and see how that goes. <br />

We went to the doctor three times this past month! The first time was for your well visit and you checked out great and then got a few shots. You were so happy until it was time for shots and then you screamed and screamed. The second time was for a rash and red bumps you had on your face and hands. Thankfully this wasn't anything serious and they went away pretty soon. The third time was for pink eye. All of this happened in a week's span. I know the first year can be rough, especially when you are in daycare, but hopefully this next month will be less eventful!<br />

You are rolling over to your back when we place you on your tummy. You seem to be pretty content when we place you on your tummy but you like to roll over every now and then. You legs and arms sure are moving so it's only a matter of time until you are crawling and really getting around!<br />

We actually kicked off the Easter festivities a week early and went up to Ryan's parents barn with all his family on Sunday. We had the annual egg hunt (I found the golden egg, woohoo!!), had way to much fun with confetti eggs and of course, Henry loved on his Nana. <br />

On Thursday afternoon my mom, Ryan and I went to Henry and Charlie's school for an egg hunt and Easter party. Henry really has the "hunting for eggs" thing figured out this year and managed to bring home lots of candy. <br />

On Saturday we went to Easter brunch with my parents. As expected, Henry was terrified of the Easter bunny (see here - <a href="http://www.lifewiththerudys.blogspot.com/2013/12/breakfast-with-santa.html">Santa 2013</a>, <a href="http://www.lifewiththerudys.blogspot.com/2013/04/easter-weekend.html">Easter 2013</a>, <a href="http://www.lifewiththerudys.blogspot.com/2012/12/christmas-pics.html">Santa 2012</a>) and if we wanted a picture one of us had to hold him. If I'm going to be in the picture with the bunny so is Ryan :)<br />

We hunted eggs (again!) but this time did not manage to get as many eggs. I think it was a little too crowded in this area and Henry much preferred to have the wide open field for hunting...<br />

The next morning the Easter bunny came and brought lots of goodies. Henry found the few eggs that had been hidden that morning and managed to consume enough chocolate for all of us! <br />

We went to church and both boys ended up staying with us. Drop off in the nursery did not go well so I gave in and let him come with us. He actually made it halfway through the service and as soon as the sermon started he was done with sitting still and Ryan and him left. Charlie smiled at all the old ladies and then took a little snooze and did great!<br />
<br />
We snapped a pic with the cousins after the service... <br />

After church we came back and had lunch at my parents and then took a long walk late afternoon to attempt and work off all the calories we had consumed all weekend. We were also hoping the boys would take a much needed nap. Success!<br />

Believe me, I'm taking pictures and capturing all the fun memories of life with a two year old but have simply not put anything on the blog. I hate that I've been bad about keeping up with this as I love looking back and reading posts and seeing pictures but it's just been hard. It is hard to keep up with the blog when I'm still getting up with Charlie during the night and not getting a good nights sleep.... Hard to keep up with the blog after working all day... Hard to keep up with the blog when I want to spend the few hours I have in the evening with my boys.... Hard to keep up with the blog when all I want to do after they finally go to sleep is lay on the couch....<br />
<br />
With all that being said, we are managing. And we are getting into a new routine. And the boys are thriving. Henry is at such a fun age and that is what I want to remember. I may not be able to write lengthy posts but for now I'm happy with posting pictures of our life with this sweet boy. I will remember the moments and memories and that is what matters most :)<br />
