More on the little man :)

Lastnight I laid him down in his playyard and went to do something and came back and he had rolled over :) I tried to get him to do it again, but he didn't seem to want to have a crowd when he was doing it. I noticed he looks like he's trying to pull his knees up too to crawl. My little man is trying to grow up WAY too fast. I've been calling my little piggly wiggly lately- he's been eating like crazy. At least 7oz of milk each feeding with food two times a day. He's a growing little guy- that's for sure. He smiles (flirts) more than any other baby I've ever seen. He's really start to coo and make noises, especially when someone speaks baby or french to him.

After looking at Kelson's first food, they pretty much had the same "first foods" :) How cool!
1st fruit- Bananas-- He loved em
1st veggie- Sweet Potatoes- seems to be his fav
2nd fruit- Applesauce- he loved that too
3rd fruit- Peaches- yummy- loves that too
He is a good eater no matter what I've given him! :)
Peas- those are coming up next

All About Me!!!!

Well, I just turned 33 years old last Thurs. So hard to believe, but life is going by fast anyways. I celebrated with friends at Jefferson Street Pub (where JAB was playing) then some fun time at the cave. Saturday we pretty much laid around and then we went to eat at CASA, then watched "Puss in Boots" in our new home theater. Its sooooo flipping awesome. Jason has been researching the perfect equipment to buy for over 2 years now (within our price range), so we were finally able to buy it all since we sold our Santa Fe. I will miss that great car, but Marian (Keith Donald's sister) wanted one, so we gave her a good deal on it, just like Keri did for us. So it was a WIN WIN for everyone. All in all we've spent around $10K for the home theater, but its so worth it. Jason and the kids gave me the Christmas Carol (Jim Carrey movie) in 3D with two pairs of glasses. Its great! We watched a little bit just to experience it. Its gonna be awesome. Jason is very pleased with everything we got and spends a lot of time in there- already. The kids watched "The Wizard of Oz" while I was at work a few days ago, so it looks like the whole family will get use out of it. So back to my birthday, I got some really great gifts. Kohl's gift card, Amazon gift card, blue ray movies, cute and stylish laptop carrier, bath and body works set, a blender for my low-fat smoothies, a cute shirt, and some adorable flip flops and AU lounge pants. All in all it was a GREAT bday. My sister had given me some cute Disney stuff.

So with all that going on, over the last couple of months I've been applying for Walt Disney World jobs. Well March 2nd, I got a call that my resume was pulled and I have a phone interview in about 5 minutes with the professional recruiter, so I'm excited and thrilled at the experience and gesture, but whether it will be a "move" I can make is the question. I haven't even gotten the job yet, so there is no promise there, but just considering it is a scary thing. Not scary, but different. Different place, move to FL, etc... all things have to be considered. Anyways, with that being said. I have to go finish preparing for the interview, so fingers crossed and may God show me the path for my future career and the right path for my family. Amen!

Month 4- Smiling, Eating, and Diva'ness

We had Janson 4 month checkup on March 6th. He weighs an even 15 lbs. He's 25 1/2 inches tall (same as Kelson was at this age)- we still think he will be around 5'11 or 6ft. His blue eyes are still blue as ever. He's starting to sit up very well on his own, therefore Dr. Zbell put him on fruits and veggies already. He's tried apples, bananas, and sweet potatoes already and ate them all quite well. I've been trying to sign "more" and "milk" already. He's a little young, but he's a smart little man, so he should catch on quick. He already blows bubbles back at us. He loves tummy time and looking around. He does not like to be put down or someone not paying attention to him. He is quite the snuggler and lots to smile. Bathtime is a joy with him- he has been splashing like crazy. Kelson and I get a big kick out of him when we all hang out in my bath tub. Since Kelson has been more interactive with him, she seems to really like having a little brother around. We did nickname his wee wee... since we call hers "Tuti" from Yo Gabba Gabba, I decided to call Janson's "muno". The character already looks like one anyways- LOL! I had to explain to Kelson while Janson had a muno and she has a tuti- that was fun!
Janson is quite the Man-diva... he is always wanting someone to play or hold him- no matter what. He is still sleeping around 10-11 hrs a night. Its exciting, but sometimes doesn't seem long enough... Overall we have two WONDERFUL children.

Kelson's spring break is this week so I'm gonna try to see if we can organize her playroom and toys and possibly donate some. She has SOOO many and lots of them were "phase toys" (where she was into something for a few months, then lost interest). Some I can keep for Janson, but she does play with a lot of her toys. She is getting cuter and more personable every day. She has so much fun at school and has learned so many cute songs. Her t-ball practice starts in a few weeks so I can't wait to start her on that. Our two babies are perfect!!! Having our big spacious van has been a lifesaver.
