Agent Time?

The other night Chris got his first taste of show business filling in as background for the feature daddy is currently working on, and I believe he LOVED it...See what you think...

Here's daddy looking on as his son manages to find the center of the action

Doing what he does best, Dancing!

Yes, we have some teeth coming in

Some Bean Bag play with our buddy Penny Chamberlain

Pumpkin Time!

Last weekend the whole family heading out to Saugus for a day of Harvest Fun at Lombardi Ranch, a family ran pumpkin patch with lots of extras. As you can see below, Chris had a lot of fun picking out his first pumpkin...

Daddy Daycare

Clint gave Noah & I a much needed break from big bro yesterday and took Christopher to work with him. This is how Daddy kept little man under wraps:) No, Chris had a great time and Noah finally got Mama all to himself for a day.

Rollercoaster

Today was a great day! Not a perfect day, but a day where I didn't go shopping while the babysitter was here and contemplate never returning home:) Yesterday was such a day. I had not had decent sleep in over a week's time and it was definitely catching up with me. Even though we had our amazing Rachel here and I tried taking two naps, I was so tired I couldn't settle. After a very frank text to my husband, mama got a night of Ambien sleep out in the studio. Yes, this is what the times have come to! I know it sounds dramatic, but remember my company these days:) The fact that I'm eating dinner before 10pm and posting this blog is a major accomplishment tonight. (And, really forgive my spelling and grammar these days, my brain is mush!)

Below, the boyz chillin outside...

Bear Hug

Christopher has now mastered the art of climbing up on the couch and leather chair. Bear for some reason is now allowing Chris to hug him, not without a snarl or two:)

Super Powers or an Old Soul trying to tell us something?

I think it is the latter of the two. Noah has already turned himself over from his stomach to his back during tummy time. Are we in trouble or what? I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't for the fact that it happened right before my eyes, twice! I also have three witnesses now! At two weeks Noah turned himself over for the first time in front of my mom and myself. I thought maybe a freak incident, but no, just yesterday Noah did it again in front of my good friend Susie and Clint. For many reasons I have thought this little guy to have an old soul but now I'm convinced! I think this is his way of letting us know that he comes already equipped with many capabilities so..."Just chill out about the tummy time and let me take in my new life by lying on my back which I prefer":)

Brotherly Love?

Poor Christopher has been having a heck of a time adjusting to mama's attention to new baby bro. An ear infection that wont go away doesn't help! There have been some tender moments between boys, but my days lately have been filled with a lot of tears...mostly coming from Chris:( Luckily help has come in the form of Rachel, an amazing new babysitter that has allowed Chris to have some much needed "mommy & me" time together again. The weather has been rainy so the pics below are from a recent mall outing and a quick jaunt in the backyard. Ah, to see him smile again...

One Month, here we are again...

I can't believe our little Noah is already one month old today! He really isn't little anymore! As of last week he was already 9 pounds 4 ounces. He, like Christopher, LOVES to eat! So, I'm sure you can understand why it has been a while since I've posted anything...Just in case you can't understand let me give you some insight...Two babies under a year apart = a major juggling act! I now feel like I'm in boot camp for a gigantic circus act. Both boys have already master the act of crying at the same time, or should I say "screaming". Did I mention yet that Chris still has a darn ear infection that his last round of antibiotics did not attack! So, now big brother is on some stronger antibiotics that I pray take action quickly. Noah is having some stomach/sleep issues at night that we are working on. Christopher luckily still puts himself to sleep and sleeps all night even through little one's cries. Christopher also quickly took to his sippy cup with whole milk so I'm at least only doing bottles for one kid, I'm saying my prayers this continues...

Although in one day you can experience everything from a dead car battery, a flat stroller tire, a freaked out dog from thunder, and two babies screaming...I'm amazed how you can go from feeling like the worst mother ever to the luckiest person in the world! I'm also amazed at how I'm still functioning on such little sleep. Truth be told, I'm very happy to report that starting next week I will have help two days a week! I know this is going to be the best thing for me and the boys, mama needs her sanity:)

Here are some recent pics...Noah is an old soul with the sweetest smiles. Poor Christopher is suffering from some jealousy, but luckily I can still manage to get a giggle out of him. The last pic is of Chris hugging Noah. There have been a lot of sweet moments already with these two, as well as some frightening ones:) Oh boy do I have a lot of training ahead:)
