Nathanaels 1 year check-up!

Hello Everyone,

I had my check-up today and I was 31 1/2 inches long (in the 85th percentile...I am 1/2 inch longer than Adley was at 1 year,) and 23lbs 4oz (in the 65th percentile....Adley was 1 lb 1oz heaver at this time.)
I had 2 shots and had to have my finger pricked...but it went fast (poor Adley they had to squeeze and squeeze to get the finger prick sample at a year.)

I had a fabulous birthday weekend, what wonderful weather. Brother and I love playing in the river at the park, and playing with our cool cousins. Photo's have been added to the site...check em out!

Love ya,
Nathanael

Birthday Party

I had a sweet Birthday party today with my friends. You'll have to check out the photo's (here's one from the album. Mom made baseball cupcakes..she's pretty pumped about them.)

There's even some party prep photos....mom let Adley and I frost a cupcake yesterday...yah we ate it!!

Love you all,

Nathanael

We're Cute

So Adley has a sweet new video today!!

Adley made something fun in Sunday school today, and he told mom that it was Jesus smiling...that took a few sentences to figure out really that's what he meant, but it was soooo cute. Adley is such a big help around the house, that's all he wants to do "I do it" he says, "I help you" a lot too. So sweet.

Nathanael had his baby dedication today at church and doesn't he look suave in his photo. He's walking all over the place, his latest distraction is putting lids on cups, he wants to put things in things.

Adley did have to go to the Dr earlier in the week. He didn't have pnemonia but he was having trouble breathing, it could be alergies, or triggered by them. So he's on the breather medicine again for a while. Hopefully it's nothing and he grows out of it, It could be due to alergies, but the Doctors won't 'rule that in' until he has a few more episodes and they know what the alergen is. So for now he's on the breathers until summer, and we'll asses when the cool weather returns.....and cold season.

But we are loving the warm weather, and love to get out as much as we can.
Happy Spring everyone,

Adley & Nathanael

Happy Easter Family Photo!

Boy we've been MIA for a while, we've just been sooo busy having fun. We went to Memere's last weekend hence the sweet photo. We had a blast.

Check out the new video too!!

In the past few weeks Anna and Adley have had lots of fun playdates, to McDonalds play place, to fun world. They are playing a ton before the boys girlfriends move away.

Adley, Nathanael and mom went to another play gym place. Now Adley the monkey can climb all the way to the top of the 3 story play structures...and they opened the gym room, so Adley climbed in this huge blow up caterpilliar, (which he'll tell you about when you ask him....and he punched his nose,) and jumped on the trampoline, and dove into a huge vat of soft cut up sponges...of course Adley sinks in pretty far when he does it, and has a little bit of trouble getting out, but loved it. Nathanael wants to do all this stuff too, except he had to warm up to the ball pit. I put him in it and he cried, he saw Adley in it he cried, then I got in there with him and he warmed up to it slowly...he still did not want to be sitting in there not near me. He's got an aversion to it.

Adley and mom painted easter eggs (mom did an awesome job not preplaning this so we had brown eggs, and if you'd guess the only colors that stain them are blue and green, but we tried them all. The box says ages 5 and up, and mom was very pleased/surprised it was not more messy. Adley's hands are still a little green. He did the dipping and switching the eggs to different colors.)

Hmmm, what else. Nathanael is walking...and climbing the stairs. Adley has some awesome sayings these days. "That's not possible mama" "Mama I don't know what you talkin' about."

Well I guess that's a tidbit from us.
More to come soon,
Have a glorious Easter weekend!

Adley & Nathanael
