Jimmy & Joey Update

It feels like its been awhile since I've posted anything.  It's been one thing after another in our house the last month or so.  The boys are just the cutest things though and I wish you could all see what I see every day.

I only have ONE picture of Jimmy believe it or not.  He's a mess and so smart all at the same time.  His pacifier passion is strengthening instead of waning as time goes on and I'm afraid we're going to have to do something drastic soon.

Sleeping sans pacifier!

This past Saturday we went out to the house to finish the yard and burn some wood. We got all the way out to the house before I realized that I had packed everything BUT Joey’s pacifier.  Of course that was the day he decided he really needed it too.  I tried to get Jimmy to share his – even though it’s for bigger babies – but he wasn’t having it.   It rolled around to nap time and both kids were fussing so I stuck Jimmy in his car seat and he fell asleep pretty quickly.  So I gently took the pacifier out of his mouth and stuck it in the still fussing Joey’s mouth and within minutes he was asleep too!  After a little while Jimmy stirred and cried a little so I transferred the pacifier back to Jimmy.  Crisis averted!  After that we managed to survive until we got home.

Here are some pictures and videos of Joey in the last couple of weeks.  We're working on learning to sit up, roll over and trying to do more belly time.




Sitting Up



Oops!  It didn't last long!



Still happy though

 He's growing out of his clothes so fast.  I just sorted his clothes again this weekend and probably 60% of what was in his drawers he can't wear anymore! These are 6-9 month pants and they're highwaters!

Baby highwaters

He's a really sweet baby.  I have noticed lately though that when he's not happy he has no qualms about letting any one know.  It's definitely the end of the world if he gets pissed off.  I made him some sweet potato baby food last weekend and put breast milk in it to thin it out and he did not like it.  He spit it in my face several times.  So I put it in the freezer and I’ll try it again in a few weeks.  Silly boy!

Here he is happy though, which is 90% of the time.

And some videos:
