Ian's big accomplishment!

This has been such a nice and lazy weekend for me and my babies. Even though it was a lazy weekend for us, it was an exciting one for Ian Robert!

Friday night at my parent's house, my dad says to me that I wouldn't even believe him that Ian had went from a laying down position and sat himself up! I couldn't believe I had missed it! We sat around and played with Ian for a little bit, and then all of a sudden, he was doing it! Now that he has started doing it, he can't stop! He does it all day long. He does it in his bed now when he's waking up from sleeping, and he does it to get into his toy basket to see his toys! I am so proud of him :).

And Peyton just gets so excited to play with him! I'm so glad that they have eachother.

Ms.Laurel (Ian's therapist) is going to be so excited to hear about what he has started doing! On top of that, she wanted to start introducing him to food that was textured, to see how he would like it. I fed him some textured green bean and pear mix today, and he just sat there and chomped with his gums, but he seemed to like it. She wants me to pick up some yogurt bites that melt in the mouth, so I am going to do that tomorrow. I'm hoping he loves it so much!

What a perfect, lazy weekend :).

It's 2012!

It's the new year..2012! There are so many things that I am looking forward to this year. Of course, there are certain things that I am going to work on changing for the better, but most of all I'm hoping for a year of happiness for my family.

Peyton is in school and he seems to be liking it a lot! He has a hard time waking up in the morning, but once he gets home from school, he tells me all about his day and how much fun he had playing with his friends!

Ian is getting so big! Peyton will be 4 on March 5, and Ian will be 1 on March 11! I can't believe how the times flies. I can't believe that our baby is going to be 1 already! Ian is becoming more and more strong and smart every single day. He gets on all fours and moves back and forth, back and forth, while trying to crawl. He has picked up one leg and moved it forward, but then toppled over. He will be crawling any day now, and I'm so excited for him! He loves to play right along with his big brother Peyton, and he will babble on and on while trying to talk to us! He is loving all of his baby food. Anything and everything I feed him, he eats. He's eating baby food with meat in it, and he loves it! His therapies are going amazing and I am so proud of his progress so far!

My babies and my husband have my entire heart! It makes it difficult to have Charlie so far away from us in the military, but the boys and I are keeping ourselves busy! Between school, doctor appointments, the random busy life of children, we are just doing everything day by day and we can't wait for 2012 to end (already I know..) so that Charlie can come back home to us! Charlie has yet to really get to meet Ian, and Peyton misses his dad so much.

Of course, that's my husband eating barbeque chips and trying to enjoy himself lol. We love and miss you Charlie and we can't wait for you to come home!
