So I am slowing back posting and maybe one of these days I will catch up. I think my goal for next year is to post at least once a month with an update on everyone.
So here is September....
Wesson LOVES his sister. I have to get after him for kissing her too much. He gets upset if she is sleeping and I won't let him give her a kiss and hug good night. He also like to help feed her a bottle. He is handling Kindergarten a lot better. Now he usually will have meltdowns starting Thursday after school. This is way Thursdays are really long and always feel like Friday! He also has joined walking club.
He love to take picture on my phone. Here is a selfie. Notice the bandage. We had some issues with some neighborhood kids. They didn't want to play with him, so they threw a rock at him and got Wesson in the forehead. I got a knock on my door and a dad was carrying him and handed him over and simply said "He got hit in the head with a rock" and walked away. Wesson was covered in blood. He could of used a few stitches, but we just went with the butterfly route. I had major mom guilt about this whole incident. All is well now.
Barrett was sick for a while this month. He had a double ear infection as well as a viral infection. Made for a grouchy kid, but he is feeling much better now.
He is my buddy in the car in the mornings. He love to have his hat and sunglasses on. He also love to have his picture taken. Though most of them are blurry because he doesn't hold still.He has such a cheesy smile.
See... He also loves to just sit on the couch and watch a picture slide show on my laptop. He current favorite is May 2011. He was about 2 months old in those pictures.
He is getting better with his sister. He doesn't poke her in the eyes as much. I don't have to worry as much leaving her in the same room as Barrett. Though the other day he did shove a animal cracker in her mouth. So I still have to worry and move fast if I do. His favorite job is to throw Elise's diapers away and get me new ones.
Elsie is just a chill as ever. She is now sleeping usually 8 hours at night. I feel like she sleeps all day. She is starting to coo. She doesn't like it if I have too much diary, but she is not as bad as the boys were.
She lets you know if she wants something. She will fuss some to gets swaddles, changed, fed, or put to sleep. I usually will get swaddle her and lay her down and she will go to sleep.
She is just a happy cute girls, who recently has discovered her tongue.
Not only are her cheeks big, but so are her eyes. They are turning blue, just like everyone else.
She loves to sit up and look around, I just have to protect her with lots of pillows. She she doesn't get clobbered as bed with loves from her brothers.
I have loved being a mom of three cute kids. Sometimes it's hard with everyone needing something at the same time, but we make things work out. I got mastitis one more time this week, and more more time my mom came to the rescue and took care of me and my kids. My sister Charisse started helping me take serious control of our finances and make everything ship shape. She has given me loves of great advice. Already things are looking better, I was always afraid to look at my account. Now I look at least once a day and track everything!!!
Kent has been home a little bit more with I know he enjoys more. He feels like he has more time with the kids and to do things like play games and mow the lawn. I appreciate all he does for our little family!
Favorite moment this month--I let Wesson babysit Elsie for little moments, like when I run the the mail box or put Barrett down for a nap. One time he came and found me and told me "Elsie told me I am SUPER COOL!!!!" Then we could hear her talking in the other room...." oh.... she telling me her super cool brother needs to come back! Bye!!"
