Hello kids,
Okay, you guys have been keeping daddy and mommy pretty
busy. Let’s start by some quick updates. Noah, you are growing up so fast. You
look like daddy more and more every day. You got your second hair cut recently
and you are really starting to talk a lot. You can now officially open the
fridge and grab whatever you want from it (Although we don’t really let you…
because you know… the house would get messy (fine, messier). Emma, you too are
growing SO fast. You are almost 18 months and you are one tough cookie. You
survive Noah every day, congratulations. You also started to say some words and
you are very good at telling us what you want. You are also very independent and
you like to play on your own. We are so proud of both of you… You also seem to
be teething constantly. We cannot wait for you to be done, it makes you grumpy.
About brotherly/sisterly love. Around Christmas time you two
actually started to bond. We aren't sure when it happened or how, but it seems
like overnight you two decided that you would be okay to play together. Noah
started giving Emma toys, Emma started to give them back… Emma would chase
Noah, Noah would hide from Emma. Then you guys started playing ball with daddy.
Noah’s favorite game has to be to point videos for daddy to put on for him to
watch… Hmmm that or playing with cars and trucks. Emma loves to hide and seek.
We just find it so beautiful that you two are finally starting to play
together.
You two don’t always get along. Most of the time Noah will
try and steal anything that entertains Emma which causes Emma to cry and be
unhappy. Emma recently learned to hit back. So usually Noah will hit Emma and
she will hit him back. It’s almost like a new game and they end up laughing, or
crying, either way, it works for you guys.
Sleeping wise you guys aren't too too good. Noah wakes up
very early and Emma is now wanting to sleep in bed with us. We aren't too happy
about that. We miss the times where we’d put sweet Emma down and that she’d
fall asleep. I guess those times are gone, will they ever come back?
Both of you kids are still nursed, say thank you mommy. You
guys still love the boobs and I don’t see you guys weaning anytime soon… Yup.
You guys also eat almost anything. You both eat about everything and Noah LOVES
ham. Emma is more a fan of ground beef and pasta. Dessert wise, you both like
chocolate and gummies.
That is all for now, keep on being the cute little creatures
that you are.
We love you guys VERY much! Keep driving us crazy!
