She's nearly four months old now. She was starting to sleep much better....until she learned how to roll over. She sleeps much better on her tummy, but she'll get herself flipped onto her back and can't get back over. Then she just gets mad.
She weighs 14 lbs now. She's definitely outgrown her 3 month clothes, and she's on her way to outgrowing her 6 month clothes!
She's becoming more interactive. She'll have a conversation with you where you talk and she gurgles and coos back.
She's started to bat and grab at toys. She's really enjoyed the exersaucer. She seems to prefer being upright to laying down, so she spends lots of time in the jumper and Bumbo seat.
Julia absolutely adores Noah. He can always get a smile out of her. It's pretty remarkable how sweet and caring he is towards her!
Sweet Abby will be two in July which is really hard to believe! She still seems like my baby in so many ways.
Abby is a total princess -- she loves to play dress up and have her nails painted. But then she'll wrestle with Noah and get just as dirty the next day. We haven't quite figured her out yet!
She loves the beach, mostly digging in the sand. And she LOVES sweets.
She doesn't care anything about the television which is usually my last ditch effort for a diversion when I'm making dinner. She usually ends up in the kitchen "helping" me. She loves to use the mixer and fill the glasses with ice.
She's a little diva. If anyone leaves their sunglasses or shoes within her reach, she'll take them and try them on!
Noah is growing into the "little man" nickname Luke gave him before he was even born. He seems like such a big boy -- especially when I try to pick him up!
Noah loves reading books. He's so close to learning to read, which is just incredible to me. He's constantly telling me things like, "Cup. C-C-C. C starts with cup." (That's really how he says it!) He's sounding out simple words. He's really doing quite amazing for just being three!
Noah loves to dig in the dirt or sand. He'd spend the entire day scooping sand into his bulldozer and then pouring it into the dumptruck.
He loves to go to the park and "Old McDonalds". He's finally showing more bravery when it comes to the slides! He's great at making new friends. He'll have entire conversations with every neighbor that walks by our house. (I'm pretty sure one couple purposely changed their route because of him!)
Our children bring us so much pleasure -- it's a joy watching them grow up!

....by the way, does anyone else have trouble getting all their kids to look normal in a picture at the same time???
First off, you are super mom, Sarah. I didn't realize you had 3 KIDS, all age 3 and under. WOWser!! I can only imagine you're a great mom though.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, you got ALL of those things in that little garden? That is impressive.
Finally, after reading your blog for a little while, I'm thinking I read somewhere you guys are hoping to go on the mission field? Is that right or did I make that up? And if so, when do you plan to go and where do you plan to go? I'd love to hear the details...
