The Glenn twins: 11 months


LOOK OUT!!!!!!

 

The boys are now ELEVEN months old and as BUSY as ever!!!  I just can’t believe it, YESTERDAY…they were still in my belly…I would swear it. 

 

Thomas is much more curious than G….and a little more stubborn it seems;-)  T seems like he is going to be more an independent booger….constantly stealing his brother’s toys and crawling at lightning speed to check things out.   T is standing pretty good now and pulls up on everything in sight.  It won’t be long ‘till he can free stand…which means walking isn’t too far away, aaahhh!!!  Thomas is a great eater, sleeper and baby in general….he cracks us up with his little stubborn “grunts” when he doesn’t want to do something or is being told “no.”  Everyone says he is quite “healthy”.... our chunk for sure.

 

Graham is my cuddly baby, he likes to be in constant contact with his mama and will crawl over something/someone just for me to hold him.  So sweet.  G loves to cuddle, but he’s also great at playing by himself or with his siblings.  He just laughs and laughs at big sister!  We joke that G will always tell on you if your floors are dirty because he does such the army crawl…and is fast as anything, but it’s all on his stomach!  He will get up on all fours every once in a while and pulled himself up to standing position in his crib for the first time the other night!  Now, his crib will be lowered as well.  G eats pretty good, he’s a little pickier about texture, but once I force him to try it he usually realizes he likes it….he’s a great sleeper as well and a sweet baby.  

 

The boys’ typical schedule right now is this:

Wake anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30

8 oz between 7:30 and 8

A breakfast food/yogurt around 9

And between 9:30 and 10 they go down for nap 1 (depending on how late they sleep) and usually sleep 1.5 to 2 hours

8 oz around 12

“Lunch” food around 1 or 2

2:30/3: nap 2

Snack around 4

Dinner around 7

8 oz around 8/8:30

BED

*They are both LOVING the bath now and can finally sit in it by themselves with sister:-) I just put a very low amount of water in there and watch them like hawks, because they are both likely to fall easily.  We are going to slowly start introducing whole milk…mixing it in their bottles with formula.  Again, the ONLY thing I am excited about with them turning 1.  We are using up the last of the size 3 diapers and will switch to 4 next.  They are both in 9 mo pajamas, but will switch to 12 mo soon….mostly 12 mo clothes.  They both have two bottom teeth, but both are getting in their top two teeth.  

 

I LOVE THESE BOYS so…and we seriously cannot imagine our life without them….it may be CRAZY and chaotic…..but it is so incredibly fun and makes my heart THAT much fuller!

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...

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...

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h...
