9 months and counting...

Hello there lovlies. Patch and Jamie are 9 month old, almost 10. They are BOTH mobile! Jamie boy can crawl like a pro. He goes from sitting to standing with ease. He cruises on furniture, barely holding with one hand. Until last week, my boy Patch was still immobile. But low and behold, he started sitting, kneeling and army crawling all in a  matter of a few days. He is so very excited that he can finally play with the activity table that has been eluding him for months!

It's funny that even though Jamie is faster and more able, Patch is the boss. He literally drags his body across the floor like a baby paraplegic but when he gets to Jamie, he manhandles any toy Jamie has away from him. Poor Jamie it left crying many times a day because Patch decided he needed that shiny thing Jamie discovered. I'm not quite sure why Jamie doesn't just crawl away, as he definitely would win in a race. Maybe he's just doomed to be the submissive baby boy B for life, lol.

Jamie now had 4 teeth, 2 top and 2 bottom. I think he is teething more. Patrick has 0 haha.

I attempted cry it out the last 2 nights and I think it's backfiring. Patrick now wails louder than ever during the night. I even tried leaving them both to cry and sleeping, myself on the couch. Yet an hour later, the shrieking was still going strong. Life is exhausting, I'm at my wicks end with their sleeping habits.

Today is Ash Wednesday. I am going to try and not eat sweets for Lent. Day 1 so far so good.

I'm excited to take a St. Paddy's Day photo of the kids. I'm hoping to get some over suspenders and little shorts to go with their Irish shirts and clover baby leggings…. I haven't done a photoshoot since Halloween really, aside from 1 photo each for the Christmas card. I can't believe they will be double digits (in months) in 4 days! Ahhhh!!

I need to do a measurement and weigh in… soon.

We just moved into a new, bigger, house. Hopefully things will settle down now that we know we'll be here for a while.

We had our first play date yesterday with Emily, Carlo and Lucia (and new little baby Reginelli (circa Oct '14). It was so great seeing Aria running around and having fun with Carlo. Having a bigger space to play made it so much nicer! When they arrived, Carlo handed Aria a dandelion that he had picked from his yard. It was adorable, quite the charmer!

Until next time, xo Rosie
