My Precious Moments!

Saturday, July 9, 2011 Pooped out!I'm sooo tired, I don't know how I'm writing this, ha!

We went to Champaign for 2 days, but we did so much stuff there it was exhausting. We went to the playground, we went to the museum, we went to the pool, we grilled out, we basically didn't stop much :)
They kids were great though, a little crankiness, but not much for no naps for 2 days straight.

We then got back today, unpacked the car, and then turned around and got loaded up to go to the lake. We went out with Beth and Will and had a good time. There was great company on the boat. Aydan was a little dare devil today. He got into water (with jacket) and was doing all sorts of things. He went on the beach, up and down, sitting in sand, playing with the bucket, basically had a BLAST!
Now I'm home, both kids were asleep by 8, and I'm heading there in minutes!
Goodnight world!Posted byMarcy Hoodat7:14 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Thursday, July 7, 2011 2 Doctor check up's!I had Emma's 4 month appt. and Aydan's 3 year appt today. They are going soooo much! But the appt. went well, so that's great news.
Aydan: 3 years old
3'4" 31 lbs. Projected to be 6'3" !!! Whoa, taller than Mom and Dad. He's says he talks really well and will probably be an early reader. And last but not least, he told me not to be worried about the potty training, ha. We'll see.
Emma: 4 months old
2'2" 12.5 lbs. 98% for height. 40% for weight. She's doing good. She's sitting up (not on own), holding her head up nice. She cooooing and making good sounds. She's aware of Mom and people around her.

So proud of my kids and their good check ups.

4 months old!

I lot has happened since Mother's day (my last post):
*The school ended. Yay! More time with little Emma and crazy Aydan.
*I also got my contract to teach again next year and got tenture, yay!!
*Went on an extremely fun Wine trail weekend. My husband planned an early birthday present for me. We got a limo for the day and hit the wine trails, it was so much fun!!
*Justin turned 32
*I tried 29, 1 more year until I'm 30. I had a really fun night out with teachers and a nice night with my husband for a movie and sushi.
*We celebrated our niece's birthday where she turned 1, Avalinn, and our friend's son turned 1 too, Jake. Two 1st birthdays in 1 day.
*Emma went swimming for the 1st time, she also laughed the 1st time right before the pool.
*I was in a wedding. One of my best friend, Courtney got married! yay! It was such a beautiful day. And such a fun night. I haven't had that much fun dancing in a long time!
*We went to Chicago for Justin's summer conference. Emma's 1st trip there. We got to visit with my friend Heather and meet her son Brayden. He's a preemie, and such a spirited beautiful baby. I so happy for them. We also had a nice dinner out with Cory, Albrey, and Jay.
*We had a good 4th of July, took Aydan to see Cars 2, he enjoyed himself.
*I started cereal and bananas with Emma about a week ago.

I felt very loved that day. It started out with Aydan coming in in the morning giving me a gift card for a few massages! (from daddy of course, but it was wonderful). Then Justin said we should leave early for Lauren and Drew's house and go over to the Galleria to the Cheesecake Factory for brunch, yum!! It was beautiful weather and we got a seat outside, such a nice meal. We then spent the day with family and friends! Aydan had a lot of fun playing outside, so much that he fell asleep in the car after 5 minutes. We had a nice evening at home that night. Great day in all!


Here's a picture of me with my two blessings that really made Mother's Day what its all about!

She had her appt. on Friday. The big SHOTS day, booooo. She did really well with it actually. She had like delayed crying, but as soon as I held her hand and talked to her, she calmed down. She was a little crabby the next 24 hours, but she was sooo brave and dealt with the fever afterwords so well. yay!! Break my heart to have to have her take that pain in.

At 2 months, she is 11.1 lb, in 75th %. And almost 2 ft, the 97%. Yup, that's right we're going to have 2 crazy tall kids. Doctor said she's as healthy as can be. She's doing great holding her head up and that of course she was so beautiful! hehe.


LOVE her smile here. She sticks her tongue out when she gets excited, its pretty cute.Posted byMarcy Hoodat7:21 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Tuesday, May 10, 2011 Getting Aydan to eat.. grrr!Well I'm ready to admit that Justin and I did a bad thing for our son already. Aydan is the slowwwwwest eater ever. And to just get the meal over with quicker we have always just spoon feed him ourselves. He's totally capable of doing it himself, but he play and chews slowly (like hr and half on his own, goo), so we hurry him along and spoon it in, remind him to keep chewing and to speed it up basically.
But now with two kids, I don't have time to sit and spoil him rotten anymore like that. So the last week and few days, I've been trying to break him of it. NO toys to the table (distractions). He gets his meal, spoon, and fork and he has to eat everything on his own. Sometimes I put a cartoon on in backround. He has to leave the table occasionally for time out. Some meals still take over an hour, but some good ones are only 30 minutes. We're getting there. We did it for so long, so it may take awhile to break it, but I'm sticking to it! He may always be a slow eater, but he'll eat on his own, or his won't eat! As his grandpa says (a doctor), he'll eat when he's hungry, he'll be just fine. :)Posted byMarcy Hoodat6:40 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Monday, May 9, 2011 Emma's Sleeping habitsSo.... I have been blessed with two great children. Aydan was a such a good baby, slept well, hardly fussed, etc, etc, etc. Emma is not as good as that, but she is still such a good baby. She's so happy in the morning and smiles at me already, melts my heart!!!
She has been sleeping in her bed for about 2 and 1/2 weeks now. I've been back at work for over a week now, and she since the 2 day back at work, she hasn't eaten anymore during the middle of the night anymore. The 1st night I did it and she then didn't want to eat at 6/630 when I got up, so I stopped that right away, ha. The 2nd night, she made me go back in every 30-45 min to give her back her passy.. but by the 3rd night, we were in buisness!! She sleeps from around 8:30 until 6:00-6:30, yay!!! She of course has some off nights and gets gas before bed (such as last night) and then she fusses til 10 or later to fall alseep, but I still feel so LUCKY to have 2 great sleeper babies!
