Will turns 4 months old

This little bundle of stuff is just adorable and doing SO much

 Had some help with the pictures...

Maybe shouldn't of taken pictures the day after shots....

 oh... a toy!!

Pajama day shots!


He wears a 3 in diapers and 6 months in clothes (we pulled out his 6-9 month stuff too)
Weight: 16 lbs 15 oz (91%)
Length:25 1/2 in  (86%)
Head: 44cm (97%)

We got his 4 month shots and he did not handle them well at all. He was not feeling well for a couple days and was pretty tylenol dependent to keep his fever down.

He's not a great sleeper I think his tummy keeps him up a lot. Before Christmas he got up to 6 1/2 hours at a time but now he barely make it 3. I have been trying to feed him when he wakes up  during the day so he can get any burps up and so he doesn't have to rely on eating to go to sleep. But I really think his tummy just bugs him all night long! He doesn't wake up to eat normally just starts screaming. He arches his back a lot too, I remember Brock struggling with stomach things about this time (thank goodness for the blog so it helps me remember). So we will wait it out. I just wish that solids helped. It seems to make it worse.

sleeping picture of the month


Now that we are done with the sad stuff on the the Fantastic Growing up so BIG stuff!

He can now roll over. Not the way you think he would start rolling over, its a slow process from back to stomach!

When he is on his tummy he loves looking in the baby mirror or trying to crawl but doesn't bother rolling back

He sits up so well! he sits in the Bumbo or in the stroller like he was made for it.

He loves blowing raspberries, and does it all the time.

We did start solids with him when he turned 4 months he loved it and had so much fun eating it. He would scream for more. not to mention blow raspberries in it.

He laughs and giggles a lot. He uses his baby jabber and chats with us. Even more so when Dad or Brock is around. (I swear he just uses me for comfort and food!) haha

He likes to eat you give you great big kisses

coming at ya!

He really likes toys! He growls at them and bites them and pulls them and pushes them.

 He played with the wipes for a long time!

He is still crazy obsessed with his hands, they are the best toys!

He only poops like 2 times a day or even every other day! its nice compared to 6-8 times a day
I might have to save the rest for awesome faces of Will:

oh that face! I love that face!!!

Brock turned 18 months

This post was meant for earlier this month but I am just getting around to it. Well I did want to wait til after he went to nursery and his doctors appointment

 He wears 2T or 24 month clothes, He is a size 4 in diapers, He wears a size 6w in shoes.
Weight: 25 lbs 3 oz (40 percentile)
Height: 33 1/4 inches (75 percentile)
She called him a tall lean happy boy

He hasn't had a seizures since the first of MAY!!! We have another check up the 4th of February

 Brock has adjusted well to being a big brother, a lot of times he throws a fit because he hasn't got to see or hold his little brother in a while. He still calls Will (Bee Woh) however not as often

His vocabulary is continuing to grow. He can really just tell us whatever he wants. He says chick for chicken (he loves chicken) or he says meat, He can say drink and juice. He says up, down, and more. He says no... all the time.... constantly... to everything :) I really feel like he uses his words more instead of crying of fussing.

He can tell you so many animal sounds he loves animals. Bird, fish, snake, tiger, cat, dog, elephant, horse, cow, duck, dinosaur... lots more
We were all getting ready for bed, Will was crying because he just got out of the bath and he was tired cold and hungry (I would cry too) Michael said "Holy cow little baby!" Which Brock replied MOOO!!! MOOO!! and pointed to his brother.

 He officially has all the teeth he should. He was missing the bottom 2 til he was almost 17 months old

 He is so tall he can reach the tops of all the tables, counters, drawers, and my craft closet. The house looks like a hurricane came through often. Hurricane Brock

 His favorite foods are Cereal, Chicken, Beans, Fruit (of all kinds), Cheese, Cottage cheese, and well more Cheese
He likes lots of other foods and isn't so much of a picky eater yet.

His 2nd Christmas picture or just a silly picture.  For his 2nd Christmas he loved the tree and the lights, he loved making cookies and going to get togethers. He loved the nativity scenes and would want to play with them often. (Mary and Joseph lost their heads and baby Jesus was eaten)  However he still could care less about presents and wrapping paper. If we unwrap it he loves the presents but he doesn't get excited about unwrapping gifts.

He really loves his toys. Even his little baby toys he doesn't need anymore. He still plays with them. This is a fun trike his grandma and grandpa got him. one of his favorites He also loves his elephant shooting balls toy, and books 

He is a silly silly boy. As you can tell from the videos.

I am worried about moving back West because this kid LOVES outside we have a much better day if we can make it outside. we get a little crazy when its cold. And its not as cold here as often here as it is where we are headed.

 One day in December at the park. He loves this little thing he jumps around like crazy hence the blurry picture...

So this is a funny picture. Brock like to "spin" he thinks its hilarious. He spins all the time and when he is done he lays on the floor like this ha ha. 

A grumpy face boy 

 He loves the popcorn tins. Popcorn became a favorite word. and so did popcorn popping on the apricot tree.

 He learned how to take pictures.... I have a lot of pictures like this. ha ha

 This is his Nursery picture! all ready to go. It was a happy day for everyone. I had one of the leaders tell me he is the best kid in there. Lots of kids cry and are sad but he just plays and plays. She told me that he was playing a lot with the kitchen toy and would take off the handles off and he would try and "plug" it into things. He also would play fetch with it. throw it and go get it again. I can hear him now say "throw" "yay!!"

Climbing up the stairs for nursery he really didn't want to turn around to see me for a picture. He was just ready.

Brock loves to help in the kitchen he will help empty the dishwasher and put it in the drawers, he does really good at it as well. He also likes to throw things away and take things out of the trash.

Trip to Utah and Idaho

I think we have bad luck when it comes to going back to Utah and Idaho to visit families. We have good intentions and we love seeing everyone but we seem to have a curse or so. I thought last year was bad but this year we would have to say was worse.
The flight there was almost uneventful, we found out we couldn't sit by each other. and we  because we had checked in online. we had to talk to a representative and figure out why it wouldn't print out both boarding passes. So she separated us and stuck us on either side of each other in the row....right by the bathroom. So every time I tried to nurse Will there was a line of people standing over me. It was embarrassing, and I couldn't go to the bathroom to do it since there was such a long line. Then Will blew out. I was smart and brought extra clothes but they were in the carry on and we couldn't get to them. So he ended up wearing his jacket and the pants he was wearing.

I started feeling sick my stomach hurt and I was so nauseous and I got a huge headache right after we got off the plane. I was thinking it was just motion sick so instead of spending time with family I went to bed early.
The next day I felt a little worse but OK, we went out to Breakfast to say goodbye to Amy who left to the MTC that day. I stayed home when they took her to Provo so Brock didn't have to drive for hours. I gradually got worse with a cough but felt fine. We visited Michael family and then drove to my parents the next day. And I got a lot worse. So did Michaels family, they all got sick. When Michael mom called him and told him they had Bronchitis. We took me in, turns out that's what I had too.
 A few days into my medicine I got to see some friends and we went to Logan to get family pictures done. The next day both Brock and Michael were running a fever and not feeling good. Michael took Brock in and they said oh its just a cold and sent them home. We cant give Brock cough and cold medication because its a stimulate and could cause seizures in someone prone to seizures. So we could only give him Tylenol.  I went to my brothers blessing which I missed (I walked in after they held him up) since I was trying to take care of Michael Brock and of course Will. Basically I just wanted to cry since this trip was not turning out to be what I had hoped.
After they got home Michael started getting worse. My dad had to take him to the instacare in Ogden..  We hadnt seen anyone because we were sick and we didn't want to get anyone else sick.  I don't think I have ever seen Michael so sick.
We did get to see them that night though since we had already exposed them with the family pictures the night before. But we tried to keep everyone away from the kids.
Then Will got sick, he just acted like he didn't feel good. We called the Doctor to see how much Tylenol to give him when we were told to take him in. It wasn't good for little babies to have fevers that high. We took him in and was after waiting in line we got a room. They sat and talked to us about admitting him. He was just days away from being 3 months old. They told us if he was under 2 months old he would be hospitalized and for 3 days and get a bunch of test run. (Like a spinal tap) With him being just under 3 months we were lectured about it. They ran all the test they could there to see if they could find out what was causing a fever. Luckily or unluckily it was the Flu. He was surprised he wasn't running a higher fever, and expected that that's what we all had. Will just cried and cried when he was awake and didn't want to eat. but we were able to go home. They gave us a medication for him but it would only give him an extra day less or something of his sickness. We gave him a blessing and prayed that it wouldn't turn into something worse. He ran a fever the next day but Christmas morning his fever broke and he just had a cough.
 It was basically the whole trip now with my family and we had barely been able to get out of bed. I was so grateful for my parents for just taking such good care of us. And not getting upset that we were all sick and grumpy. And got them sick...
We drove up to Michaels family the day after Christmas the ride up was rough Brock was still not feeling good. when we got there his lips had turn blue and he started shiver and shake. Michael decided to take him in. when they got there his fever was 104. They were really worried about him but they didn't know what they could do. They just gave him a flu medication and a baby z pack. On the second day of his medications Brock took a nap with me, he woke up covered in hives. At first I thought it was just a rash from having such a high fever since that happens to him every time but a little while later it had spread, and was raised and circular. We took him back in and they told us to stop all the medication that he would just have to get better on his own and gave us a large dose of Benadryl to give him. in the morning it had spread to his face and it was so swollen I honestly thought he wasn't my baby. We went to our brother in laws baptism which was wonderful and got ready for the baby blessing the next day.
My brother texted me the morning of and said he had been throwing up and he his wife, baby and my little sister weren't able to make it. My older sister couldn't make it because of work. Luckily my mom, dad, grandma, and Emily came. All of Michael family was there (Amy was in the MTC so she wasn't) his Grandma and Granddad came, and his aunt Angela came with her daughter and her two kids.

Luckily Brock started feeling better and we got through the rest of the trip. we got to see family, go to a few movies. eat at kneaders and Cafe Rio.
The next few days went smoothly until the trip home... the car ride was rough with Brock I did everything possible to entertain him. We had all had enough when we finally made it to Michael's sisters when we got a call about our flight being moved. they didn't have a second flight for us.
 We got up early and got to the airport everything went smoothly until we got on the plane....2 1/2 hours later we were still on the plane in Salt Lake... Fog, and the storm out east delayed us. Michael and Brock slept for about 45 minutes then was awaken when we pulled back to refuel an was awake and unhappy the rest of the time. we were supposed to be back in Memphis at 1. We didn't get home til 7.

So basically the whole trip didn't go as planned but we were happy to see everyone for the little time we had. Everyone got to squish baby Wills cheeks, play a little bit with Brock. And Michael got to visit with the doctors. And I got a break from cleaning.
