4 months

Do I have the sweetest children or what?


Azlyn did not even cry when she got a shot at her 4 month check-up. What a brave and tough little girl! She is 13lb and 23 3/4 inches. She is such a strong and happy baby. I love the way she laughs and kicks when I walk in the room. You can already see in her eyes how much she loves me. I am one lucky mama!


Jaxon is still a hoot. Loves his sister and says the funniest things. When we were getting in the car the other day, he said, "I need music. I need rock and roll!" When he sat down to play some pretend drums, he tapped the sticks together and said, "A one and a two and a three." You never know what he will say or do next! He picks ups everything from everywhere....so watch what you say and do around him....

3 months and counting

At Azlyn's 3 month appointment, she weighed 11 lb 8 oz. She will be double her birth weight soon. It is amazing how fast she is growing. She is still sleeping a lot in the day, but she is also a great sleeper at night. She usually goes to sleep around 9:00. She wakes up around 3:00 or 4:00 to nurse, but she goes right back to sleep. When I get up with Jaxon around 7:00, she'll nurse again. Then she'll sleep with daddy until about 8:30 and sometimes later. When she is awake, she is so playful. She loves to smile, and she makes the sweetest sounds when she talks to you. When she is nursing or sleeping in my arms, she holds my hand or onto my shirt. It is precious!



This little boy gets cuter and naughtier everyday. Usually one of us is trying to make him mind while the other one is laughing behind his back. He cracks us up! His vocabulary continues to amaze us everyday. He says the funniest things, and he is beginning to speak in complete sentences. He has been using the potty with our prompting for a few months, but this week he has been able to tell us when he needs to go potty. He even wakes up in the morning dry most of the time. We can almost call him potty trained...well, tee tee trained...that poopin' is going to take a little more practice! It is so fun watching him grow into a little boy.



This isn't the best picture of Azlyn, but I love the way Jaxon is kissing her and holding her hand. He just adores her, and he does a great job taking care of her. She is really starting to watch him and smile when he comes near her. It is cute to watch this brother/sister relationship grow.
