The Glenn twins: 9 months

Another FANTASTIC month for my boys.  Still not right how fast it goes, but we have been having a blast with my little buddies ;) 

 

Thomas:  T is about THIS close to crawling.  He will rock on his knees and wants to so bad, but hasn’t quite figured it out yet.  He definitely MOVES though, he pushes himself backwards and can definitely get across a room.  T stands assisted and looks way too big when he does itL  T now has two teeth…some teething pains here and there, but nothing a little Tylenol can’t help.  T is totally imitating sounds now…  ma ma, da da, bye bye, etc.  He also LOVES to blow “raspberries.”  

 

Graham:  G hasn’t showed any interest in crawling yet, but he can scoot around backwards as well.  G still doesn’t put a lot of weight on his legs, but the doctor doesn’t seem concerned about it.  I think it’s just because he’s small/a little delayed beyond the one month premature delay.  He will catch up thoughJ  Actually, he is already starting to…biggest news is that G is FINALLY on the growth chart for the first time!  Woohoo!!!  14% for weight and 1% for height.  G has one tooth now and, like Thomas, hasn’t been too bad about it.   G is starting to “talk” a bunch lately, but I haven’t heard him really imitate anything quite yet.

 

Both boys are eating LOTS, like I’m totally scared of our grocery bill one day, yikes!  We just started trying to give them table food/puffs/yogurt melts/etc.  It’s time they start learning to pick up their own food.  They are both amazing sleepers.   They go right down anywhere between 8 and 8:30and we don’t get them out till 7/7:30depending on how early we leave that day.  G will generally wake up by 7 but he is content “talking” to himself in his crib.  They typically nap twice a day for 1.5 hours to 2 hours.  T sometimes fights naps recently, but he will eventually fall asleep.  They are both taking their own bottles now which has been a HUGE game changer, that and when they started sitting up by themselves made life so much easier.  They are really taking an interest in their toys now, and LOVE to be outside (as do most babies) …they always seem so happy on our walks and LOVE to watch Collins ride in her jeep.  They have THE sweetest giggles when being tickled, I’m obsessed!  

 

STATS:

T:  20 lb. 4 oz  (61%)   25% length

Size 3 diapers,  9-12 mo clothes

 

G:  17 lb. 8 oz.  (14%)    1% length

Size 3 diapers,  9 mo clothes

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...
