30 Weeks

Agnes is 30 weeks old this week. 7 months! She is rolling over all the time, can scoot her way wherever she wants to go, and LOVES to eat. We haven't found anything she doesn't like yet. She smiles at everyone she sees and adores her brother.

Jeffrey is still wearing his cast.

 Last week he took a marker over to the next door neighbors and had the whole family sign his cast. Then he took the marker to school and had his "kindergarten kids" sign it too.

 We had a follow up yesterday where the orthopedist checked the bone to make sure it was healing correctly. He is starting to get a little bit tired of his cast. I remember having mine for 6 weeks on my foot and I was so itchy and annoyed at the end. I can't imagine what it must be like for a kid with sensory issues to have to wear it constantly.

In Jeffrey's class they are reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and so he said he wanted to watch the movie (the new one with Johnny Depp, the old one is a little too trippy for me). In true Jeffrey fashion we have become obsessed with all things Willy Wonka. One night Jeffrey asked for a Wonka bar and daddy rose to the occasion making this candy bar with a golden ticket inside. Jeffrey loves them! He started taping his wrappers on his wall just like Charlie Bucket. We might have a Wonka party for his birthday this year.

28 and 29 Weeks and a Broken Arm

 

28 Weeks

 

29 Weeks

This little girl is getting bigger and bigger! She soon will be 7 months old which is much too close to 12. Where has the time gone?

Jeffrey also broke his arm this weekend playing a game of musical chairs. I knew he was in pain when he came in screaming and the way he held it and the fact that he kept saying how much it hurt clued me in to how he must really be feeling. Jeffrey seems to have some sensory issues so he doesn't always feel pain or hot and cold the same way I do. So when he said he hurt we took him right in. He was scared at first but we all prayed together and asked that Jeffrey would be brave. He LOVED getting his X-Ray and told the Dr. all about how he did a double flip to get from the big chair to the little chair. (as soon as I figure how to post instagram pictures here I will share the photos with you)

Agnes is so much fun right now. She is rolling all over and scootches her way to something she wants if she sees it on the floor. When she's sad she says "Mamamamamama" until someone comes to pick her up. She was 19 lbs 6 oz and 28" long at her visit last week. She eats a LOT and is very big compared to babies that are her same age or even some older. But we absolutely adore her! Jeffrey can make her laugh whenever he looks at her or talks to her and when he comes home from school, she gets very excited to see him.

Spring is teasing us here in Kansas. It's been warm and then chilly and then warm and chilly. I can't wait for the summer to get here so we can enjoy the warmth.
