He talks too much… Posted by Katie

Kyne that is! This little boy can talk like a 3yr old…and he copies everything Tayah says (which isn’t always a good thing!).

Some of my faves are:

"I love you, mommy" (or whoever he is talking too). He tells us all he loves us about 20 times each a day.

"I’m sorry" - I love this because he knows why he is saying it…..he is constantly telling Tayah he is sorry for hitting/hurting her!

Some of my not-so-faves:

"I don’t want too"

"I can’t"

"I don’t like it"

"Shut-up!!!!"

Smiling Cutie. Posted by Katie

He is such a happy baby nowadays…it sorta creeped-up on us…he went from being a fussy little thing, to this smiling happy boy. He loves his mommy & daddy the best, gives us the biggest smiles. He loves to just sit and stare at our faces for long periods. He is so intent on just staring into our eyes….it is so funny.

He does still have some fussy moments, but they are getting fewer and fewer. He slept 11-7 for the last 2 nights….so we hope that continues, or even gets longer. Actually he sleeps 9PM-7AM but the first part (9-11) is in the front room with us and then we wake him at 10:30-ish to eat and then he’s back down for the night.

Rhys had his 2 month pediatrician check-up yesterday (he is almost 2.5 months though). He is 12lb 6oz and 24 inches long (75% and 90%!).

The Dr put him on his front to see how his head control and muscles were. He got right up on his forearms and was moving his legs all around. Dr says "I think he’s gonna be an early roller the way he’s moving his legs and arms"….and whaddya know, he rolls over right then and there! It was too funny.

Anyway he checked-out just perfectly. He was all smiles while waiting for the Dr to arrive….in a wonderful, happy mood. 

We didn’t get any vaccines as so far I am foregoing most if not all of them. Dr gave me his "legal opinion" and then we were on our way!

Kyne and Tayah both threw tantrums on the way out because I didn’t let them have a pop. They got a sticker each, but that wasn’t good enough for them. They both started crying and Kyne threw himself on the floor. Everyone was looking at us….ah, it was fun! ;) Gotta love kids.

Happy Halloween 2008! Posted by Katie

We had a lovely time trick or’ treating this year. Kyne and Phoenix enjoyed it a lot more than last year and Tayah looked like a proper little princess in her Cinderella costume. Talon wore his "Venom" costume from Spiderman, Kyne was a dragon and Phoenix was a pirate. Rhys wore a bright orange one-piece romper….but it was kinda cold so he was covered up in the stroller the whole time…..(can we say waste of $?)

Here are some pics:
