Hi everyone!
I wanted to apologize for not being on top of the blog these past few weeks. Things have been very hectic as I am sure you can imagine, I never thought I would say this but I am starting to feel as our lives are busier that when they were tiny! Instead of playing catch up with multiple posts this I figured would just be one BIG post. I have not done a individual posts about the kiddos in a long time so I figured thats what I would to to catch up on whats been going on.
Benjamin is quite the curly haired cutie! He has grown up so much over the past few weeks, its hard to believe he was ever our time 4lb baby. Ben definately has quite the temper, he knows when something does not go his way thats for sure and he lets you know it! He is very independent and would much rather try something himself than anyone helping him. He loves playing with Blake and Brookie but also plays very well alone. Ben is our shy boy, when "strangers" walk up to us he is usually the first to turn away and look at mama and dada. At 18 months Ben is now 23lbs 6oz and 33 inches tall! Big boy! Here are some of the things Ben is doing and likes:
Running
Throws balls
Uses a spoon/fork
Stacking toys
Rolls cars on the ground and makes "car" noises
Trys to jump
Dances
Blows kisses
Says "No No" while shaking his finger
Use's the slide

Loves Strawberries

Blake is one BIG ball of ENERGY! He has changed so much! He used to play alone most of the time but now he is engaging with Brookie and Ben all the time. He is definatley no longer our teeny little 4lb boy who throws up all the time. He has mastered the Temper Tantrum, believe me when I say MASTERED! Lol! Blake loves everyone and pretty much has no stranger anxiety, he is that kid who would probably just go with anyone...Scary! Blake is also very independent like Ben but also loves his Mama time to just snuggle. Blake is now 24lbs 2oz and 32 inches tall. Here are some of the things Blake is doing and likes:
Noni (blanket)
Yo Gabba Gabba
Books
Jumps
Pushing his favorite toys in the stroller
Dinosaurs
Gives/blows kisses
Says "No No" while shaking his finger
Holds a spoon/fork in one hand while eating with the other

Brooklynn is a Girly Princess. She loves to play dress up with anything and everything from blankets to wearing underwear on her head! She finally likes to keep "pretties" in her hair, which is new to me since she has always ripped them out right away. She is still the smallest out of the three of them but no where near the tiny 3lb 10oz baby we brought home at 9 days old. Brooklynn is a Mama's girl for sure, she fake cries to get my attention and then asks to be picked up. She is now 20lbs 9oz and 31 inches tall. Here are some of the things Brooklynn does and likes:
Copying her brothers
Dressing up
Cars
Stacks blocks
Follows simple commands: Get a diaper, get your shoes
Says "No No" while shaking her finger
Dances
Jumps
Uses a spoon/fork
Cantalope (Like her auntie Bebe!)
Throws balls
Finding Nemo
Yo Gabba Gabba
Blows/Gives kisses
