He is still the best little guy
He sleeps like a champ at night
I put him in his bed awake most the time and he just goes to sleep
he likes his binky when he is falling asleep
he likes to sleep on his side

he spits up a lot
the doc gave us some medicine to try

he is sitting up already for short periods of time
he is not a fan of rolling from back to belly
he can go from belly to back though

he gets scared easily
he smiles at everyone

he grabs my face with both hands and puts his face to mine
it is so cute
he pulls my hair constantly
not so cute

he is wearing mostly 6 month or bigger clothes
size 2 shoes
and size 2 diapers
may need to go up a size though

he loves to play with toys
he can hold his bottle for short periods sometimes
he puts his binky in his mouth sometimes also

he did well at the doc
barely cried for his shots
he is 17 lb 14 oz 94%
and 26 in 86%
head was 43cm 76%

I have to cut his fingernails a couple times a week
he scratches his face all the time
he is not very good in the car right now

We love our little Westy!
We are so glad he is in our lives.
Our family wouldn't be the same with out him
He is such a good baby, I know I say that all the time
but I mean it.

Now if I could just freeze time so he would be my baby forever!

He has the darkest eyes and hardly and white
he looks like a teddy bear to me

Has some little teeth starting to come through on the bottom so he is always so wet from drool and always chewing on something.

He is such a flirt. His eyes totally change when he smiles and he tries to hide his face

His hair is so crazy and I don't know what to do with it.

He loves to play in the standing toy thing.

He loves his daddy

These are from my phone, not the best quality. I love this picture, I think he is sick of me taking his picture.

I still can't believe how much he looks like his daddy. They are twinners!


Ever

Just for fun, a picture of Ev about the same age. She was so much chubbier looking but weighed less. I think they look a lot different. West has more hair and it is straight, hers was curly. Her face is round like mine, West has Rhett's face shape. His eyes are much darker to, I am pretty sure they will be brown like his dad.
I like to compare sometimes, it is funny to see how different they are, sometimes I think I see a lot of Ever in West though.

We went to disney on ice with my mom, Ev and me. She had a great time and wanted to know where cinderella was the whole time. It was fun, this was before we went.

I love these 3 more than anything, they are so amazing and I love spending all my time with them.

All though these guys look so cute in beanies, I am so so so so done with winter, just saying!

Ever at 3

This is her first picture as a three year old. We went to breakfast in our jammies, and she got chocolate chip pancakes for her birthday! It was a lot of fun.

Then we took some pictures in our birthday outfit before we headed to boondocks.
Her face is still healing from the run in with that mean tree.

Then she wrote her name for the first time. She is really getting good at writing her letters, she knows how to write quite a few of them.

After boondocks we had cake and ice cream and presents. We didn't really do a party this year because I took her to Disney on ice instead. But my cousin came and stayed that night with his kids and Grammy, and auntie's family were all here so I think she thought she got a party. All she wanted was the rapunzel dress and cake for her birthday!

She is 35 lbs 72%
and 39 in. 76%
size 9 shoe
big foot like her mama
and wears 3t clothes mostly

She loves to wear lip gloss, she is always puting it on

Her hair is getting so long and she wants to keep growing it like rapunzel of course. I am glad when she cut it the other day it was in a spot that I can hide it.
She is the best big sister


We sure love this little girl, I can't believe she is 3, kinda freaking me out. Love you Evy bev!!!

Love them

how could i not???

Ever turns 3

How can she really be 3? I can't believe I have been her mom for three years already, I seriously dont know where time goes. We love this little girl so much, enough to let her sleep in our bed every night. She has attitude for days, and probably will her whole life. She is so smart, I don't know where she gets it from. She loves to get dirty, but wants to wear a dress every day. She is a girly tom boy. She goes goes goes all day long! She is starting to write her letters, and sound out some words. She loves her brother. She gets in trouble a lot, and doesn't like it. She cries all the time, and gets the biggest tears. She has a beautiful smile and cutest laugh. She is very creative and comes up with her own words all the time. She can play well by herself. She likes to take her clothes off and says she is hot. She will only sleep in night gowns. She is quite the dancer and has a darling singing voice. She asks a million questions a day. She tells me she loves me all the time. She hates to see people sad. She is fighsty, sassy and sweet. She loves Cinderella! She is excited to be 3! She gets hurt constantly. She is covered in bruises and scratches. WE LOVE YOU EVER!!!!! Happy 3rd birthday sweet girl!!

Can he really be 3 months already?
He is so smiley
and a will smile for everyone
I love it
His whole face changes and gets dimples all over when he smiles
as cheesy as it sounds his smile still makes me tear up
He honestly has had 2 rough nights in the last 2 months
when I say rough I mean one of them he cried
and the other he ate 2 times instead of once
that is no lie
He has an 8:00 bed time every day
he takes 3 to 4 naps
I am not sure how I got so lucky
he is such a blessing

He loves his sissy and she loves him
He is so strong
he can sit up for short periods and not fall over
he stands up like a champ
loves tummy time
is trying hard to roll
I can put him in the bumbo chair and he does great
it is hit or miss with his car seat and the car
he has found his voice and it is so cute

he has started drooling a ton
I think teeth are soon
Ever had them by 4 months and he has done everything sooner so far
he weighs almost 17 lbs(ever was a big baby and weighed 16 lbs at 4 months)
today I read the instructions on his bassinet and it says up to 15 lbs
rhett reinforced it he says
I hope so
he is rubbing all his hair off
dang it

I wish I could find the words to express how much I love him
I can't
I wish time would slow down though

we watched a video of Rhett as a baby the other night
Ever thought it was West
it is so funny how much he looks like his daddy
I used to watch those videos to try to picture my son
little did I know he would look just like him
