Busy times...

It seems as though we have been crazy busy lately! The kids are getting big, Reid is now almost 5 months old, Jack will be 2 next month. Time sure does fly. It seems like yesterday that Jack was born...hard to believe he is going to be 2 and we are going through the normal terrible 2's at least I think so. He is definitely a sweet little boy when he wants to be but he learned the word 'NO' already!

Reid is getting huge! He is going to catch up with his brother before we know it! We tried cereal this week but he didn't seem interested, so I decided to hold off for a couple weeks and try it again. He is a fantastic nurser and has been gaining weight like a champ with only nursing. I have 2 complete opposites! Reid has recently decided to not take a bottle...he will wait until I get home from work to eat...what a crazy boy!

I need to update pictures soon...a good friend took pictures of the boys recently...Jack 2 year pictures and Reid 4-5 month pictures. I can't wait to see them!

A night at Grandma and Grandpa's house!!

We went up to Huntington to see my parents last weekend.  My dad had not seen the boys in about a month, so he was very happy to see them and spend some time playing!  We took lots of pictures and just relaxed that evening!

NICU picnic

Each summer the NICU hosts a picnic for all the graduates and their families.  Last year was our first experience and though enjoyable, Jack really wasn't old enough to enjoy many of the things offered there...fast forward 1 year...he had fun!!  We saw Brooke, Shelly and Emily...so happy to see such wonderful people who took great care of our Jack.

Ear infections...over them

Well, Jack is dealing with his 10th or so ear infection...it sucks! I took him to the doctor on Friday because I suspected that was what was going on, his ears looked fine then. Sure enough, took him again yesterday...ear infection. We are scheduled for tubes to be placed next Tuesday and it can't come soon enough. When Jack isn't sick, he eats like a champ, meals and snacks...when he is starting to fight an ear infection, he stops eating. We know his signs and I guess we realized an ear infection was coming before his ears showed it. So, now we are on another round of antibiotics until next week and hopefully we won't have to deal with frequent ear infections this winter!

2 months!!

Happy 2 month birthday Reid!! It has been a wonderful 2 months...especially since he's been home this whole time! Reid is growing well, eating great, but has had a couple colds...yuck! We had a great 2 month check-up and he was 10lb 5oz! He got his shots and gave the nurse the appropriate "boo boo" lip!
