3 Months



It's hard to believe that Drake is already 3 months old (plus a few days - but who is counting!). Life is C.R.A.Z.Y. around here with two little ones - but we count our blessings as we know we are very lucky to have such wonderful little monsters :)



Gabby will be 16 months old on the 25th - she loves to move. move. move. We have been taking her to music class and upon leaving the 1st class one dad simply said: "Wow, she doesn't stop moving". Ummm, yeah!! She is starting to talk a little more - knows most of her body parts and can identify over 20 animals (yeah, I'm bragging a little!). She's a smart little cookie - which can sometimes be mistaken for stubborn :)



Drake is the Happiest Baby EVER. I swear the kids does nothing but smile, laugh and EAT. Man, can this kid eat. It's like a buffet 24/7 around here. At 3 months he weighed half of his sister (16 lbs - Drake and 22 lbs - Gabby). I tell Brandon often - "I think we're growing a linebacker". His personality makes up for the fact that he is still getting up at night to eat - but I'll take it if it means a happy, healthy baby.

I've recently had the opportunity to be able to stay at home with the kids. I like to say I'm "retired". I never envisioned being a Stay at Home Diva/Mom - but I can honestly say that I can't imagine one single day without seeing their smiling faces now (even if said faces are covered in grapes, snot and the occasional grean bean.). I'll take it! I learned with Gabby that the 1st year goes by oh. so. fast...so I'm grateful to be able to share in their every day milestones. Plus - it gives me more time to convince them to someday find me a nursing home with an open bar. :)
