A New Year...

A new year is upon us and well, we're a month into our new year! Not much really is going on with us. Adam is making strides left and right and Jack is busy being Jack. Adam has now discovered how to army crawl. He has been doing this for a few weeks now and climbs over bean bags and whatever else is in his way. Another new trick...
Here is Adam making sure I have the camera ready.
And I captured him pulling up for the first time. He only got to his knees and wasn't to sure what to do next, but now is getting to his feet. He only pulls himself up at this chair at the presant time but he will figure out other spots soon I am sure.

I have discovered that Jack is more like me when it comes to eating. He is very picky! I made a rice taco casserole for the kids the other day and he started screaming after taking a bite. He grabbed is wash rag from the back of his chair and started wiping his mouth. I handed him his milk through my laughter. One thing I have discovered that I thought for sure he wouldn't eat...
Grandma's sweet pickles!!! He absolutely loves them!! She will have to be planting cucumbers this year and hope they grow this time because he is eating all the pickles!
And this is just proof that he actually put it in his mouth and ate it. I thought for sure this picture would be him spitting it out. So Grandma, can you make me more pickles?
The sickness has entered our house again. We have plans to go out for the Super Bowl this weekend but I am sure I will be sick by then. Some of the kids I watch have the flu, so Jack and I will probably have it by Sunday. Adam is currently on antibiotic for an ear infection I would have never guessed he had. He had started with a cold but was acting normal, no fever, was still eating, but the only differance was his sleeping. Well one night I was up every hour with a coughing baby who started to get sick all over his bed and all over our bed! Not what Kory and I want at 1 in the morning. He just looked at us and smiled and laughed. I called the dr the next morning because by now I just wanted to sleep through the night again! The only reason they wanted me to bring him in is because he got sick. The dr told me he was probably a day away from rupturing! Never would have guessed it. Though possibly bronchitis. So now I will be calling the dr everytime something is off with him for fear of an EI again. It was the same one that was infected in December and it was clear at his 9 month appointment two weeks prior.
That is all for now. Hopefully I will get to go out for the Super Bowl. Guess you will have to stay tuned to find out!
