Big Brother, Little Brother

"Big brother, little brother, buddies true and strong. Life is truely twice as fun since he came along!" This saying from one of Weston's favorite books sums up our life perfectly right now:)

This and That

Well, Vancie (as Weston and I call him) is doing wonderful. His medicine is our little miracle and I am so grateful we get to enjoy such a sweet baby! Our pediatrician said he has not seen a truly colicky baby since they started diagnosing acid reflux and putting babies on omeprazole. Those poor babies (and parents)! Vance is a very sweet talker, rarely cries, smiles a lot, and has even let out a few "giggles" for daddy.

Since Vance can now tolerate being on his back, he is loving his baths just like his big brother does:)

Vance is also losing a lot of his dark hair and may be showing signs of being a redhead (or at least strawberry blonde). I guess time will tell:)

Weston continues to make us laugh everyday, and we feel like we constantly have to keep him challenged! He is always ready to try something new and loved mommy's newest summertime activity- painting with water on the sidewalk. This is a great activity for a toddler! I found that big brushes with long handles worked the best, so he could paint while standing up.

Weston has also recently taken his jumping skills to a whole new level. Check it out.

Finally, I had a great third Mother's Day. Yes, I was a mother when I was pregnant with Weston:) Until Weston and Vance are older and can do their own special things for the day, Michael is doing a great job of filling in for them and making the day special. Here is a little video he got of Weston for me:)
