Will’s 15 Week Checkup

Yep, 15 Week…kind of random but the closest to 2 months I could get him in. So we just covered the 2 month well baby visit and the 4 month well baby visit in one visit.

Our Will weighed in at 14.9 pounds, 26 inches long, with a 17 inch head. With those measurements it puts him in the 50 percentile in weight, 89 percentile in length and90 percentile in head size (to hold all his big brains). He is meeting all the developmental benchmarks and doing great. He was sleeping great at night but the last week or so he has decided to wake up a few extra times. He is starting to nap better during the day and boy is he a smiling giggling kind of guy. He loves to talk. If only we could figure out what he is saying. He loves nightly bath time with Madeline. He can shake a rattle super loud and sometimes even scares himself with the noise.  His Bumbo is his favorite seat and would stay there forever. He is the happiest when you are holding him so he can stand or sit up. He likes to be right in the middle of everything and not left out. You will know when he isn’t happy because he does NOT have a soft cry. Here are some pictures after we got home from our Dr. visit.

Look at those cute legs, not quite as chubby as Maddie Grace’s.

Look at those blue eyes and he sure has found his tongue in the last few weeks.

Doggie?

Uncle Eric and Aunt Sally sent Will this doggie costume. He finally fit in it so on a CRAZY Friday night we had a Schindler costume party.  Of course Madeline wanted to try it on too!

  We sure did have a dog gone good time!  I’m not sure we have laughed so hard in a long time. The funniest part was Madeline saying that the outfit “no fit” Will and that it fit her.

Warm Weather Please!

When ever there is a warmish day we head on down to neighborhood park. Sometimes Madeline rides her bike and sometimes she just wants to push Will in the stroller. She brought the camera to photograph our walk.

Can you tell which ones I took and which ones Madeline took? She loved her shadow and wanted to take LOTS of pictures of her shadow as we walked.

Big Girl!

To celebrate over a week of dry pull ups at night Madeline got some new Elmo pajamas!  She was so excited she wore them all day long. We have now been pull up free for a week with only one tiny accident. (Stupid Strawberry milkshake before bed!) She is getting to be such a big girl we are very proud of our Madeline Grace!

Does she look a wee bit excited?

Our Life, by Madeline

Madeline has fallen in love with one of our old digital camera. She has been very busy taking all kinds of pictures. I thought I might share a few so you could learn what is really important in her life.

Sesame street on the computer. She LOVES when she gets to check out Elmo and do a little coloring with the mouse.
