Time to lower the crib!

Cade showed us a new trick he must've been practicing when he was suppose to be sleeping... Calin isn't as motivated to stand up, just content to watch his brother and laugh.
Cade started by holding on to the rungs of the crib, then getting to his knees and finally to standing. Within 2 days he can now go from sitting to standing in a second! Also, Tom and I didn't think about taking down the mobile over his crib. He took it down for us! Time for super glue...


Calin just watches and laughs at his brother!

Kleenex please

Unfortunately both boys and eventually the two of us came down with really bad colds after Christmas. I don't even know how many Kleenex boxes we went through! Poor little guys had trouble sleeping, eating and just wanted to be held. But we all made it and it was so nice to see the boys smiling again.

Merry Christmas!

We visited both sides of the family after opening a couple presents at our house in the morning.

Santa!

The boys went to see Santa today. Not sure what to think of him but they didn't fuss or cry.

Long winter

November and December were mostly spent inside getting over colds and the stomach virus-which we all had! If one has the start of a cold we try to keep things separated but the other one always ends up with it anyways. We played a lot, worked on their mobility(rolling), and eating.
Tom and I think they are looking a lot more alike now that the difference in their weight is getting smaller.

In this picture I wanted to show how the boys play together. The toys are spread out evenly between the two and within a couple minutes Cade will have grabbed everything he can. Calin is content if he finds a pacifier.
Unfortunately we'll have to wait until next year for the Bears:(

You gonna finish that??

Calin has been a good, fast eater and usually finishes before Cade. Here it looks like he is looking for seconds!
