Colby and His Big Boy Bed!

A few days ago Colby figured out how to get his sleep sack off... and then he figured out he could climb out of his crib when he got it off... and then he figured out how to climb out of his crib with his sleep sack on... so, as much as I didn't want it to be time... it was time...

Colby now has a big boy bed!

He thinks it's great that he can get in and out of bed all by himself just like Kyle and Emily!

Mommy isn't thinking it's so great, but it is what it is!

It's been a week now... and it's kind of been a long week.

Night time has gone pretty well. Colby is still nursing before he goes to bed, and most of the time, he's asleep when I put him in bed, so he stays there and sleeps. The first few nights, he did fall out of bed several times throughout the night. Most of the time, he got back into bed himself and went right back to sleep. A few times, we had to go in and put him back to bed because he didn't wake up from falling! I think he's finally gotten the hang of not falling out of bed while sleeping though...

Rest time is a whole other story! It's been a long week because of rest time! Since we've moved, the boys have struggled to take good rests. They like to distract each other and keep each other wake. When Colby all of a sudden had this new freedom of being able to get out of bed as he pleases... and Kyle loves to tell on him... There has been lots of screaming and crying... lots of mommy get very frustrated with two little boys... and not much resting! Hopefully soon things will get back to "normal" and the boys will get some sort of rest in the afternoon!

Pumpkin and Paint

We picked out a pumpkin... (Apparently I only took one picture...) Daddy only let us get one, so we had to agree on one and share!



And then we painted the pumpkin and Daddy painted us! 

























And Mommy helped us paint Daddy!


We Moved!

I'm guessing most people know, but we moved last weekend!

Our new house is finally starting to feel like home for all of us. Kyle has finally stopped asking to go "home"...meaning back to our apartment!

Here are some pictures....

The playroom. Having all the toys in one room has really made up realize how many toys we actually have! They love the mat on the floor. Colby loves taking out the letters and shapes and putting them back in!



This is the view from the front door. At the end of the hallway is the kitchen. To the right is the living room and dinning room.

The downstairs bathroom...


The laundry hallway...


The mud room...

The hallway looking from the kitchen to the front door...


The boys bedroom. So far, they are enjoying sharing a bedroom. It was a rough first week, but they are finally taking naps/rests and doing okay at night.


The upstairs bathroom...



Emily and Peyton's room. Her Toy Story stickers are now on the wall, along with Peyton's animal stickers. Emily is loving having her own room, but is also very excited to share a room with Peyton when he's ready. She keeps asking when we are going to get Peyton's crib and dresser.


Mommy and Daddy's room...


I just realized I never took any picture outside... Maybe this afternoon I'll take some and update!

OB Check Up

Yesterday I had a check up with my OB.

All went well.

My belly measured "perfect!"

I gained two pounds... I'm now only two pounds below what I was when I got pregnant!

My glucose test came back normal.

The only "bad" thing is my iron was low on my blood work from last week. As of right now, I'm just supposed to increase the iron in my diet. If it's still down in a month or so, she might want me to start taking supplements.

And that's that... I'm now going for check ups every two weeks! That means we are getting closer to meeting this little dude who doesn't like to be still in my belly!
