Once again, Wendy did an awesome job!! I love having these precious pictures of my babies :)

3 Year Pics

Lily had her 3 year pictures taken about a month ago and I'm just now posting them! Wendy Kivett did them again and they are SO good I had such a hard time choosing!! There are LOTS of pictures below so beware : )And visit her website if you want her to take pictures-I highly recommend her! http://www.kivettphoto.com/ I love this one-totally captures her silly personality!

Is it just me or does she look SO old in this picture?!!! I love her sweet face!Twirling!

Jameson Eating

Here's a little video of Jameson eating rice cereal. And this will probably only be interesting for family to see :) Please ignore my lame-o narration in the background!

Isn't he the cutest?! :)

6 Months!!

Today is Jameson's 6 month birthday and as a present he got shots :( Poor baby! He did so well and only cried as he was getting the shots. As soon as I was starting to put his pants back on I had given him his binky and he immediately pulled it out and started playing with it and cooing at it. He's such a sweet boy! He weighs 19 1/2 lbs and is 29 3/4 inches long!!! He's in the 85% for weight and off the charts for height. He's almost too big to be in his infant carrier (and too heavy for me to lift!!) but he can stay in it until he's 22 lbs. But his feet stick out at the end so I'm thinking we're going to have to move him to Lily's old car seat sooner than later. He's just getting too big too fast! We also started rice cereal with him for the first time tonight. He did so great!! He didn't open his mouth at first, but once I kinda shoved it into his mouth he took to it right away and ate all of it! Fun facts on J-man:
*Sleeping about 8 hours at night! I usually put him to bed around 10pm, he sleeps until 6am, I feed him and put him back to bed and he'll sleep until 8:30 or 9:00am! Awesome!
*In size 12 month clothes! Even his little jeans are 12 months but I still have to leave them unbuttoned since his belly is so big!
*Laughing more and more

*Not rolling over yet, but if I pull on his arm to start him to roll over he'll continue to do so all on his own.

*Can sit up well with our help and can almost do it by himself for a couple seconds until he'll start to fall over. We're almost there though!

*His hair is growing in more and it's still red!! I was afraid it'd come in lighter like Lily's did, but it hasn't changed yet!

He LOVES to bury his face in his blanket. Whether it's in his car seat or his swing or crib he'll always put it over his face! It's quite cute-and don't worry, after he's asleep I always pull it away : )

Love these cute kids!!

First bite of cereal and loving it!

Mmmm, tasty!

I think I was a bit excited to feed him for the first time :)

And he's leaning in toward the spoon!

All done-and not too messy!!

So, would you believe that I've completely forgotten how to feed my baby food?! Mommy friends I need your advice! Do I feed him cereal before nursing or after? Do I feed him 2 times a day for a while and then increase the amount? Do I just do cereal for a few weeks and then add a vegetable in? I can't believe I've forgotten everything! And of course with Lily I wrote nothing down. I know I could look online to get answers, but I trust my mama friends more! Any advice/suggestions would be much appreciated : )

Buddies

I've been meaning to post these pictures that were taken forever ago! My 2 good friends, and roommates, from college (I've known Jami since middle school!) both had babies a couple of months after I had Jameson. We got together a while back to chat about babies and see our little guys together. Well, their babies were little and my baby was huge! See for yourself!Ellie, Jameson, and Carter. Ellie and Carter are 5 days apart (I think!). They were born in February. I can't help but laugh at this picture because Jameson looks like a tank!Love that Jameson is smiling at his buddy Carter :)And of course Lily wanted to be in the picture too! This is the best one I got :(

I also think that Lily and Jameson are buddies too. I know this phase will come and go as they both get older and probably won't share toys! But, for now, I'm enjoying taking pictures of them as Lily loves on her little brother!

All ready for a walk to the park!

My friend Bethany made a shirt for Jameson and a matching dress for Lily that she gave to me at my baby shower for Jameson! I was so excited that he was finally big enough to wear it! Quite fun to dress these 2 alike. And all morning at church Lily kept saying "Jameson and I match!" She loves to dress like him (whether they are both wearing jeans or short sleeved shirts) and always notices if they have similar clothing on. Wonder when the "coolness" of matching won't be so cool anymore!

I'm SO thankful for these 2 babies of mine!!
