Can't forget Lane...

I am feeling more and more that poor little Lane gets left to the wayside lately. I haven't said much about him or posted many pictures. He was having a little bit of a hard time when little sister first came home, but I think now he LOVES having her around. He is still wild sometimes, but I think more than anything he is looking for attention. Afterall, Sissy takes a lot of my time during the day and it used to be just him. He is a really good big brother and always concerned when Chloe cries. But at the same time, he is a little rough with her.

About Lane: He is 39 inches tall now and I think he weighs about 35 pounds. He talks ALL the time and I can understand about 90% of it! He comes up with new words nearly everyday! His newest phrase is "My Pleasure," after you say "Thank You" to him!! What a sweet thing to say! He is starting to mind a little better, especially about picking up his toys. He likes to play outside...all day if you'd let him. He can turn the TV on by himself, find the channel with his shows and turn the volume up or down. Some of his favorite shows are Handy Manny, Power Rangers, Bob the Builder and Wow Wow Wubsy. He also likes movies. His favorite is Transformers! He loves Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. We also watch Spiderman on a regular basis. The biggest and best news by far is that Lane is finally potty trained!! He really got the hang of it about February, I guess. We have had a few accidents here and there, but not very often. He even sleeps through the night in his "choneys." What a blessing that is with the new baby!

Well, that is all I can think of for now. I will try to keep Lane in mind more when I am blogging. Love to all who read these words..............

3 months

Wow!! What a short 3 months it has been! Our little Chloe is growing like a weed and becoming her own little person. Her and Lane seem to be getting along quite well and it is lots of fun to watch them interact with each other. Lane is a little rough, but Chloe doesn't seem to mind at all! You can tell that they really do love each other!

At 10 weeks, Chloe is swatting at toys and keeping a sharp eye on brother. She "follows" him around the room. We spent our first 4th of July together at the beach! Daddy brought a tent and we were nicely shaded and even had enough privacy to nurse and take a couple of little naps! At 12 weeks, Chloe is Grabbing toys now and holding on for dear life. We have a little activity mat for her that she likes to play under. Now it is 13 weeks and she may have her first tooth coming in!!! Crazy, I know, but she is showing all the signs. She is fussy more than usual, slobbering all over the place and chewing on her hand all the time! I have felt her gums, but I don't know if I'm feeling something or not. She is holding her head up very well and prefers to be in a sitting position so she can look around the room. She likes to watch her hand and fingers move in front of her face and she LOVES to watch brother constantly!

2 Months

Had our 6 week check up on June 2, 2008. Chloe weighed 10 lbs 8 oz and was 22 1/2 inches tall! She possibly has reflux which is causing her to be fussy, so the Dr prescribed Zantac to help. She is waking only once or twice at night, which is GREAT! She started to coo at about 7-8 weeks and is smiling ALOT when we talk to her. At 2 months she is sleeping 9 hours most nights!!

1 month

Chloe weighed 8 lbs 2 1/2 oz at 2 week check up. She was also 20 1/4 inches long! Responding with a smile by 3 weeks and working on her head control.

Been a while...

It's been a while, so I'm going to try to get caught up here...
