Do these boys have baby blues or what? Hutson's eyes are just like his daddy's, crystal blue and sparkly. Wheeler's are a bit more like mine, a little darker and more gray blue.
We spent a good chunk of the weekend at Papa and GrAndi's house hanging out with them and Evee. Miss Evee is such a doll, and she is so chill around the boys, she just sits back and takes it all in.
Little Miss Evee was modeling Uncle Jeff's hat for me... She just kept moving around and posing for me...
We definitely love some swing time...
It is definitely amazing to me how fast the little men are growing. I mean look at the above picture, he is only 2.5 years old! He looks like he is 4 or 5! It doesn't help that he is the size of a four year old either, he wears some 3T clothing, but mostly 4T. In public people will stop and chat and ask him questions they think he should know, and I have to tell people, "oh he is only 2, he doesn't know that yet". Yesterday we were doing laundry and I took his blankie out of the dryer and handed it to him, and he said "mommy, Hutson's blankie is too hot, you take it and give it back to me when it cools off". WHAT?! When did he start talking in sentences and being able to reason like that?
The boys are starting to interact more, Hutson doesn't like it when Wheeler is taking a nap and not playing with him. I know this because he frequently sneaks upstairs into Wheeler's room and turns the rocker toward the crib, climbs up in it and into the crib to wake Wheeler up. When I ask him what he is doing, he looks at me, and very calmly and reasonable says- "I wanted to play with the baby". We are definitely showing signs of being two though- he likes to throw tantrums, hit, run away, yell, do the opposite of what you say, not listen, etc. He has been pushing his boundaries big time this week and as a result we have all had to spend a lot of time in time-out.
Wheeler is just cruising along as well... He is started to talk all the time, most of it is gibberish, but he knows mama, dada, baba (bottle). He can do the signs for- more, eat, all done, please and thank-you. We are learning our body parts as well, he can point to his mouth, nose and ear. We are working on belly button next. He is a big boy, and I can't wait until he catches up to Hutson in size, I dont think Hut will know what to do. Wheeler is almost 15 months and wears 18M-24M clothing with a few 2T. Pretty soon both the boys will be wearing the same size clothes and then I will have to buy 2 of everything! Right now the clothes cycle nicely from Hut to Wheeler.
Jerry is 'Down Under' this week and we are missing him greatly. He has been gone 5 days now, and we have another 3 to go. He will be home for a week before we ALL make the trek to California for Thanksgiving with Jerry's family, which we are very much looking forward too.
