14 Months Old!




Okay, so these pictures were from 2 months ago, but they are too adorable not to share. Jocelyn took these pictures for Barrett's first birthday at the cabin. They turned out great.

Anyway, this last week was a long one. I had parent teacher conferences, so that meant some pretty long days. The plus side though is that I have today off. I've been fighting a head cold, so hopefully today I can try to get better somewhat (although Barrett's been keeping me pretty busy). Barrett and Ben have the same cold, too. Poor Barrett has such a runny nose that his skin underneath his nose is cracking and painful. I feel so bad for him. Hopefully he gets better quick! :)

Here are his stats @ 14 months:
**Last time he went to the doctor he was just over 25 lbs.
**He still sucks his thumb (which happens almost instantly when you give him his blankie)
**He's walking all over the place
**He's learning the word hot and will sort of say it when his food is too hot
**He says 'moo' all the time
**He points to every thing and wants you to tell him what it is
**He loves to play with buttons
**Love the throw any type of ball (he throws with his left hand, too)
**He thinks daddy is the coolest
**He loves being outside (probably more than I can even express in words)
**He loves animals (feeding cows, chasing Koda, etc.)
**He climbs everything, he's even starting standing on the coffee table (which always makes me nervous and I tell him to get down)
**He knows how to go backwards down stairs or to get off the couch
**He learning more and more how to express himself (mini tantrums and whines...we can't wait 'til he can talk so he doesn't wear himself out crying for something)
**He is very ticklish, especially on the thigh and side.
**He loves to wrestle around
**He giggles and smiles a lot
**Everyday is a great day and it keeps getting better!



P.S. I go to the doctor on Monday, so I will post more about the pregnancy then.

Barrett's thumb-sucking is the cutest. He's instantly cuddlier. :)

Can't wait to hear more about the wee ones on the way!

Yes, those pics are too cute to not post :) I'm jealous of your day off....our day off for conferences is the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, I can't wait.

I also look forward to hearing how the twins are doing, you get another ultrasound at the appt, right? Love, Melissa

So, when I saw the pics on this post, I was like, whaaaaat? They were up at the cabin, and wait, when was it that warm up there lately? Then I read the rest. :) Sounds like things are busy there too, hope you all feel better soon. I keep crossing my fingers I don't catch the zillions of things going around at school, so far so good...but I'm going to keep crossing them just the same.
