check up

Our little Sterling is growing! 14lbs 14oz and 25.5" long he is in the 52nd percentile in weight and 75th percentile in length! Can't believe he is four months old and can start real food this week!

happy Easter!

Although we celebrated Easter many weeks ago, the FB posts of my Orthodox friends reminded me that I had not yet written about it. Probably because the weather did not feel like spring, much less Easter!
We had a good time dying eggs with Hudson and playing 'Easter egg hunt' around the house. We also enjoyed going to church - the downtown congregation's first Easter celebration at the Salvation Army. And I got a priceless image of Sterling smiling. What could be better?

mornings

One of my favorite things about my new job is that I have my mornings back. I get to do this like this with Hudson!

5 week catch up

So I realize I have fallen a bit behind on the weekly posts for Sterling, so this is a catch up post with all of his photos. I went back to work on 4.8.13 and it has been a bit chaotic to say the least. Tomorrow I start a new job (!) so hopefully things will settle enough to allow me to keep better on top of things!

 

 

Sterling is definitely beginning to fill out! 

At a 8 weeks Sterling started to find his tongue - If you stick yours out, he will mimic you and stick his out which is adorable!

At 9 weeks the rascal has started to roll. He realizes if he pulls his knees in he can flip from one side to the other..

 In fact the little rascal rolled from his tummy to his back during the photo shoot! Thankfully this has not become a problem at night...yet!

 

 At 10 weeks Sterling started to smile. He hasn't been as smiley as I remember Hudson being, but he is catching up!

  At 11weeks Sterling has gotten more expressive.

At at 12 weeks, Sterling is really happy baby. He kicks a lot (loves his bouncy chair) and loves to be tickled on his cheeks, neck and belly. He even started giggling this week which is super cute!

boys in the bag

So Sterling's great Aunt and Uncle sent this very cool bag. The first image is of Hudson in his bag at his first Christmas. Fast forward to Sterling in his bag - when Hudson saw this, he wanted to get into his bag too! Then we put both boys in a bigger bag...cuteness ensued! Hudson is so obsessed with bags...even likes putting them on his head!

brothers

Couldn't resist these matching pajamas from Costco. Good thing we didn't have twins or they'd hate me for dressing them alike all the time...

mama's new 'do

So I got to get a haircut last Friday courtesy of Violet watching both boys... So much faster to dry and take care of. My guy is the best.
