November in Pictures....

Busy, busy month! I am back at work, Scott is staying with YaYa until January, and Will also stays with her 2 days. Getting back into the swing of things with two kiddoes is WORK! I feel like there are not enough hours in the day...below are a bunch of pictures from the month (and they are not in order because Blogger posts them in a funky order...and like I said, I have 2 kids so I am too tired to fix it).

Scott updates: He is sleeping pretty well. Some nights he wakes up, others he doesn't. Either way, we are blessed because he goes back to sleep.... He loves his exersaucer, and prefers to stand. He just turned 3 months yesterday and is fitting in 6 month clothes, some 9 month things. He smiles, laughs, coos, and is an absolute joy!

Will updates: He is a character. The child cracks us up...he can also make us really mad! He can be such a stinker. I joke with him (but he does not know I am joking) that his ears are broken and we are going to have visit Dr. Herrin so he can fix them. But, overall I still think he is one of the sweetest, smartest little boys around. He loves school, and has never met a stranger. He loves everyone.

Way to go, Daddy!

Patrick completed his second half ironman on Sunday; that is a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike ride, and a 13.1 mile run. He trained so hard for this, and did an amazing job! He finished in 5:05, beating his time last year by 45 MINUTES! We are so proud of Daddy and his amazing accomplishment. We are going to enjoy the next couple weeks where he is home a little more...that is until Ironman Texas training starts in January(in The Woodlands in May).

Trunk or Treat

Will had a blast getting candy, and playing games at Trunk or Treat this year. This is the first year he has really enjoyed it and understood what he was supposed to be doing. Scott was happy just hanging out in his stroller looking around. It was funny how many people loved Will's costume...I guess it just is not common so people thought it was pretty funny seeing a little guy in a UPS costume. Halloween was a success this year! The only problem is now Will thinks that he can be a "dewivery man" any time he wants. He loves dresing up in costume...

Zoo Boo!

More pictures to come once Amy sends them to me....but here are a few!

Yes, Will is a UPS guy. He loves delivery trucks, and thinks delivery men are so cool. He got so many compliments on his costume at the zoo!

Miler and Will

Sweet little man sleping through his first zoo visit.

2 Months ... and life.

Scott had his 2 month appointment today ... he is 14 pounds and 23 1/4 inches. The child is huge. At least huge compared to what we are used to! Will was always average...not Scott. He is above average - 90 %tile for weight, 60%tile for height. He is just big. He looks so big already. He loves to eat! 6 ounces for an 8 week old every 3 hours is a lot. He is still sleeping decent - goes to bed by 8:30 or 9:00, but has started waking up between 3 and 4 just to hang out. I hate to admit I have been doing what I always said I never would. He comes back to bed with me - he WILL NOT go back to sleep any other way... we have tried! I have to go back to work next Wednesday, and at this point I am going to do whatever I can do be fully functional, even if it means letting my child sleep in my bed for a few hours! Dr. Herrin assured me in the next 2 months when we start solids sleeping will be better.

Will is doing great. He is jealous of all the time Mommy and Daddy give baby brother, but he is learning it is part of life. He has learned if Mommy is rocking Scott, I can get away with stuff...like taking food out of the refrigerator, or getting in my closet. So exhausting. But he loves his brother without a doubt.

Life is good!

The Boys

Just some pictures of the boys around the house...
