Mr. Holden is 16 months

Our little goof ball is 16 months today. He is talking a lot more but still in his own language. He says about 6 or 7 of the same words all the time. He loves looking at his sister and touching her. He tries to feed her food, he just can't wait to start playing with her. Holden is such a critter, full of energy and non stop until nap or bedtime. He still takes a 2 hour nap and goes to bed at 7, wakes up at 8:30 or 9. His favorite show right now is yo gabba gabba, as soon as he hears that show come on he starts dancing. Holden is the sweetest little boy, he is such a blessing to us! Here are a few pictures of his favorite time: BATH TIME!!!Look at my cool bubble hat and beard!!

Miss Madeline is 4 months today!!

Little Maddie enjoying time in Holden's old toys
but Holden is not sure he is ready to share them......

Well maybe........
ummmmmmm
Nope, not ready to share

Holden thought Maddie's head looked a little dusty

So he thought he would give her a wipe

Can you get the TV while you are at it?

Ok here is little Maddie trying baby oatmeal......

Not too sure

Let's see, I think it is ok

Nope not ok. Did not enjoy that. Think we might stick to the bottle for another week or so

Wow, 4 months has gone by so fast. Our little angel is growing up so fast. She can't wait to play with her older brother. She loves to look at Holden and laugh. They will be causing trouble together before we know it. Here is what Maddie (Roo) has been up to:

• Wearing size 3 diapers (same as her 16 month old brother)
• Wearing 6-9 month clothing
• She is the best sleeper ever! She goes down around 7 or 8 then I wake her to give her a final bottle around 10 when I go to sleep and she gets up around 8:30 or 9 every morning. She is all smiles when she wakes up
• Talking like crazy. You can have a 10 min. conversation with all her gooing. This is how we gave her the nickname Roo because she often will say that word to us.
• Discovered her voice and loves to scream loudly just to hear herself
• Discovered her hands and loves looking at them
• She has tried baby oatmeal but was not to fond of it
• Weighs 15.5 lbs
• 26 inches long

Pumpkin Patch

Today we went on an adventure at a local pumpkin patch with friends Nick, Jaime and Charlotte. Holden had a great time exploring, playing with sticks and flirting with Charlotte. Maddie and mommy had a blast watching daddy and Holden cause trouble.

Our beautiful little girl.

A series of Holden pics. What a critter.

Love this shot!
