Kids Update

This is just a cute pic of Christian, I can't believe how big he is getting!

This is me attempting to take a pic of Evan smiling, I'll do better next time I post it- he looks actually kind of chubby in this pic- hooray!

This is Christian's imagination going, he was eating his cereal and wanted to wear it as a hat, so I got him a clean bowl. He was bothered that it wouldn't fit his head very well, but was delighted when he tried it on Evan and found that it was a perfect fit!

Evan will be 2 months next week- holy cow time is flying! Next think I know I'll turn around and be 50! Things are good, me and Dan are tired, but good. We moved Evan into his crib in Christian's room and everyone has adjusted well. Christian woke up once 2 nights in a row, but hasn't since, even when Evan is screaming his brains out to have someone come feed him. Evan sleeps better in his crib than he does anywhere else, and since his temp runs a little on the warm side I'm sure he likes that that room is a little on the cool side.
Unfortunately, he has a hernia- his little belly button is bulging out. We had my Dad look at it, he said we should be fine until we see the doctor in a week, just to keep our eye on it. Hopefully it will be able to be fixed without surgery.
Christian is at a fun stage right now (I feel like I always say that, but every age and stage always seems like it's the funnest). He has really started to be very imaginative and pretend while he's playing. The best is when Dan gets up with him in the morning, and Dan is lying on the couch half asleep and whamt- he gets a play frying pan in the face with Christian saying "Bite, Bite" then Dan has to pretend to eat what is on the frying pan. This happens quite a few times since Christian is big into cooking in his little kitchen.
He also sings a good part of the day. He still isn't super great at talking, so I really have to concentrate on what he is saying to figure out what he's singing. Lately he's been sining "bum bum baby bee" which is "I'm taking home my baby bumble bee." They sing that in nursery. He also loves Happy Birthday right now, he asks me to sing it about a dozen times again, he says "Happy, Happy!" It's so cute.
Christian has been so great with Evan- he loves that baby and always asks for him to be put in his crib when we are putting Christian to bed. When the baby is awake he will stop what he is doing and come play with Evan with me. It's really sweet.
So even though we are pretty tired at our house, we are happy, and pretty much healthy (knock on wood!)

Oh the joys of having two kids. I'm glad the room sharing is working well. It's great that Evan likes his bed. Sammie doesn't love her bed, we fight her every night!

I can't wait to hug and kiss your cute little munchkins when we come down in May for a visit! Keep your eyes open for an e-vite to Kirk's 1st birthday. =)
