New Toy and More

IMG-20101113-00014

Trey’s got a new toy and it’s a wonderful multi-purpose toy.  It works for entertainment, helping his development, and as a baby sitter…

The person that took the above picture was consuming an alcoholic beverage and watching football; hence, the babysitter comment posted above.

Trey had his 4 month well child check last week and he tipped the scales at 14 lbs 2 oz and 24 inches long.  That puts him in the 10-20 percentile for height and weight so it’s nice to see family genetics are already rearing their ugly identity with him.

Chloe is currently in a repeat everything somebody says mode.  Oatmeal, cereal, daddy is the best to ever walk the earth, and apple are some of her new things to say.  Oh yeah…and DOOOORA!!  She has Dora slippers and a ton of Dora stickers that Chloe is extremely interested in having often as well as Dora on the TV.

Chloe has been working on her life skills and earning her keep around the house.  The most recent skill is her attention to floor tidiness.

No doubt, kids grow up amazingly fast.  Just the other day it seems Chloe was crawling but now she’s driving.  It’s yet to be determined who is the better driver between Chloe and mommy.

Happy Halloween and Trey’s Baptism!

Last weekend was hectic to say the least.  Chloe started off the weekend with a birthday party for a little girl down the street on Saturday.  Since it was atypically warm for October, she didn’t get to wear her original costume.  Thankfully, Grandma Lewis had brought a tutu up for Chloe so she was a ballerina Saturday.  The birthday party was very neat as they had multiple little stations set up for the kids to play at in their back yard.  Chloe’s favorite was the bubble machine…she loves her bubbles.

Sunday morning was Trey’s baptism at St Pius.  We were very nervous how both Chloe and Trey would do since mass was at 11:00.  Chloe didn’t get her morning nap and Trey has been eating quite a bit during the day.  Trey slept all through mass and was great during the baptism.  He actually smiled when the oil was put on his forehead and when the water was poured over his head.  Chloe needed some time to run around but she was awesome too.  Kenny and Carrie are the godparents!  After the baptism, everyone came back to the house to eat BBQ and watch the Chiefs game.

Sunday night was obviously Halloween.  The weather was much more what you would expect for late October.  Chloe and Trey both had costumes and we went out to raid the neighborhood with Grandma Lewis.  Trey didn’t last as long as Chloe due to the cold weather.  It took some time, but Chloe started to get into a groove.  Once she got a bite of Reese’s, she was quick to each house and grab in her stash of candy.  She also wouldn’t let anyone carry her trick or treat pumpkin OR her!

Trey & Blue Bear…4 Months Together




It's crazy to think Trey is already 4mos old. He sits up some and has rolled over a few times from tummy to back. He had about a week when he was sleeping through the night, but he's reverted back to wanting a 3am snack. The scariest thought though...he's just one diaper size below Chloe!
