4 months!!

Brayden is 4 months old today.  This has been a tiring 4 months, but some of the best 4 months in my life.  He occasionally will sleep for 5+ hours.  His longest night was just under 7 hours.  Most nights though, we are up every 2.  I am not complaining though.. Leah never, ever gave me more than 2 until she was 11 months old, so I am very thankful!  Brayden is really starting to roll over.  He still needs to figure out how to get his arm out from underneath him, but he has the concept down.  His head holding skills are amazing.  He is now pushing his arms up as well, and really getting his head off the ground.  He is now 15.4lbs and 24.5"... where did my baby go??

He is such a sweet and gentle boy.  I cannot wait to watch him grow even more.  He has brought so much to our lives, and I am so proud to be his mommy.

Leah has had a wild 4 months.  Her entire world turned upside down.  She had a rough adjustment period, but now loves her brother to pieces and wouldn't trade him for the world (I think).  We are so blessed with 2 amazing kids.

She has always called me Momma.  I love it.  As of the last 2 days, I have been Mommy.  She loves saying it.  She goes through the entire house saying, "Mommy, Mommy... Mom-my".  She thinks it's pretty cute.  She has been talking so much lately.  Every day she surprises us with new words, small sentences, and hilarious pronunciations (my favorite this week... carbockie aka- broccoli.  I love having a toddler!

Poor Leah looks like she got beat up... She tripped on her snack cup yesterday and it some how bit her above the eye... then she was messing around on the gate leading to the stairs, and fell and got a bloody nose... then (yes, again...) she got these horrible small scratches on the side of her face, I honestly have no idea how they got there.  Poor baby.  She is a trooper though and didn't cry for any of them.  I just handed out a few kisses.

 Leah's doll house... a dog, frog, broccoli, a one eyed alligator, jeep, and duck.  She loves them all!

 Brayden's first time rolling over (still in the process).. 4 months old
