Noah's 4 month check-up

Ok so this boy is a CHUNK, especially compared to his sister. His official nickname is squishy. Grandma came up with Abby's nickname and calls her peanut (I think because she was so small) Grandpa came up with Noah's nickname and calls him squishy... well you can see why.

At his 4 month check up he was 16.12 lbs and 25 inches long (I checked Abby's baby book last night and she was 14.12 lbs 25 inches long) YIKES he's so big and as of 4 days ago we now feed him rice cereal because feeding him 5-6 ounces every 2 hours was not working out for any of us anymore. Either way we still love him and he's great at cuddling, can you see why.

Fun at the park

Yesterday we went for a walk and decided to stop by the park. The girls had a lot of fun going down the slides, they were really big!! Noah even had a good time soaking in the fresh air and kids as they ran by the stoller.
These pictures were taken from my phone so they aren't the best.

Updated pictures

We finally got Abigails 2 year old picture taken as well as Noahs 3 month picture and we are so happy with how they turned out. These are just a few of the cute ones. There is a picture of the 3 kids without Noah crying, but we thought this one was fun. I'll try to post the other pics soon so you all can see them. If you haven't gotten your picture yet, don't worry I have them I just haven't been able to get them to you.

A rare sighting!!!

It happened, I captured the rare sighting of Noah awake on camera. He was awake right before I got into the shower today and was still awake when I got out so I grabbed the camera. He even tried talking to me and got an Oh out but just 1 which was accompanied by a smile (smile not caught on camera, maybe next time)

But here he is...

Halloween

Here are the Halloween pictures that were promised earlier. Noah was a pea in the pod (like Abby), Abby was a candy corn witch, and Hailey was a regular witch. Can anyone guess what Jason was?









This was the end of the night she was so tired after all that walking and scary stuff she saw. She hung in there with the haunted houses and some of them were really really scary. She kept reminding herself that they were just fake, but she preferred the nice houses that weren't scary at all. Her words not mine, well maybe not preferred. :)

I love this girls eyes, aren't they to die for.

Noah was working on a good cry because he was so hungry and the costume was way too big for him. The silky inside didn't help with it fitting, he kept sliding to the bottom during the night.

She actually kept the head band hat on all night I was really impressed

Hailey's hair is purple but you can't tell from this picture. And she had really cool tights on that were black and pink striped but that didn't get captured on camera.

partial update

This is a partial post because I skipped over Halloween but that's because I'm a terrible mom and didn't get any pictures on my camera, but grandma went crazy so as soon as i get them from her they'll be posted for your viewing pleasure

An update on Noah, he's growing like crazy but still seems so tiny to me and he fits the baby profile of eating sleeping and pooping. Right now thats really all he does its a very rare occasion to catch him awake and i know that soon the day will come when I'll wish he would sleep more but I'd like him to be awake so I can get to know him. I remember Abby being much more alert and awake than he seems to be. Maybe he'll be less crazy :)

Anyway on the 5th (his 2 week check up) he weighed 7 11 and was 19 1/4 inches long. At his 2 day check up he was 6 9 and 18 3/4 inches long. He had lost a ton of weight and a whole inch from birth (really he lost the cone head)
His 1 month check up is Friday so we'll see if he's broken the 8 lb mark then



That is my size 8 shoe to give you an idea of his size

Abby adores her brother and wants to kiss and hold him all the time, it's nice that she gets along already


Abby and Noah in grandma and grandpas bed. Abby wanted Noah to spend the night with her but only she stayed

Introducing Noah

I'm sure you've all been waiting for this moment, I know we have. He has arrived, here is Noah. He weighed 7-2 and was 19 3/4 inches long. He's such a sweet boy and a really good baby. We love him so much. More pictures to come.
