Oh boy oh boy!


We have been busy busy, that is for sure! First off, look at this picture! Are you kidding me? Everyone was all nice and quiet in the back seat. When does that ever happen? Oh right, when they are being the best brothers ever and holding hands! Melt my heart.

So lets talk about Quade! This kid is amazing! We just had his 4 month check up, yesterday. Quade's Stats: Height: 28 inches, Weight 16.10 lbs.
So basically he is a giant. He is an inch and a half taller then Dex was at this age and a pound and a half skinnier. The doc. had lots of good news for us, his neck is doing great! He still favores one side, just a little but he is doing great and his head shape is great as well. (I was totally worried he would need a helmet, hello, he has to be able to buzz his head if he wants.)
So that means we dont have to go to physical therapy which is a huge stress relief for me!
The doc also said that Quade is the size of a 6 month old so if we want to start on rice cereal and get solids going, we can. What my baby is ready to start rice cereal? No way!
Quade is such a charmer! He smiles at anything and he laughs at everything! He coos and aws all day long. I cant believe what a laid back child he is. He has forsure out grown his bassinet but since dex is cutting all 4 K9s right now, I am not feeling the need to get them both in the same room. So Quade is on a pallet, on the floor in the living room. Nice. Quade is not the best at putting himself to sleep but other then that he is sleeping like a champ!
We love him, he is such a joy to be around!

Quade is lovin his toes lately!

And a pro at tummy time.

I could kiss those cheeks all day long. (Look at Dex in the back ground :)


What an adorable little monster!

Oh man, the life of Dexter is grand, let me tell you! Well minus today, this little guy went to bed at 5:30 today, all 4 of his k9s are coming in, poor kid, but 2 have finally poked through so 2 more to go. Other then that we spend most of our days at the pool, Dex is a swim lessons pro. OR we are partying at the park. He is so fun to watch, I cant get enough of this kid. He walks around mumbling all day long and he likes to read books out loud.
So here is a list of the latest tricks:
Roaring like a lion
Bzzzing like a bee
Pretending he is a truck
Ssssing like a snake
Words he can say:
Whoa (his all time fav word)
Moe (More)
Pees (Please)
De ter (Dexter)
Hi
Bye Bye
Uh oh
Ta da
Hot (in a whispering voice)
Vroom
Shoes
Ball
And when Quade is asleep he says very loudly "SSSHHH"
Dex is such a lover and I feel like he is so smart, he picks up on everything!



Likes the slide and has NO fear, that is forsure!

Some of Dex's best buds, teaching him how to play cars, he had more fun throwing it over the edge but he will get in one day soon.



This kid cracks me up! When ever he gets excited he makes this face says "Whoa" and waves his hands in the air. I love how animated he is. This particular moment was when a bird few by, Dex loves Birds!
This was a sad day, he took a tumble and landed face first. Dont worry, he barely cried, he was more worried about getting the ball.


That is right, Bring on the potty! He loves it and we have had a few successful moments, I am not sure if it is the candy he gets for his efforts or the books but it is always fun.


Such is our lives!
