My 3 handsome boys...They are growing up....too fast. :-(
Jacob is trying to casually hold Jonah with his elbow before he dove off the couch.
sneaking white powdered donuts out of my bag at the bowling alley....I didn't know he was eating them I just "Caught" him in the act!We went bowling and the LOVED IT!!! Maybe we'll go back....one day.
So handsome but can't be still for a picture.
Um excuse me mom but why did you put these suspenders on me with my PJ's???
He loves mickey mouse....just laying down hugging him in the middle of the kitchen floor...
They just got out of the bath and I walked in and found them like this. Jaron said he was getting that thing off Jonah's finger...He laid perfectly still and let him too.
This is what happens when you eat a blue bank sucker...I was tickling Jonah in the van the other night and just had to capture the moment....He was so sleepy...and delirious!
This is Jaron's Fall pictures from Pre-K. I fixed his hair that morning but obviously it didn't do any good. I don't even care though because he is smiling so good. And notice he's giving a thumbs up! MY FAVORITE picture of him....no doubt.
All dressed for church....
coughing and puking will wear anyone out....Jaron has been congested and coughing a lot lately which turns into puking for him. He gags so easy and its NO FUN! He doesn't eat at school and I am still giving him 3 pediasures everyday. I took him back to the dentist and let them fill the one top tooth but we didn't let them pull any teeth. He is still complaining (maybe more now) of teeth hurting and he chews on all his fingers frequently. I am so torn on what to do. Should I let them pull his teeth and hope that helps him eat better. Maybe that's one of the reasons he doesn't like to eat....his teeth hurt. He still pockets things in his cheeks and there is obvious difficulty swallowing. He has anxiety and even cries sometimes if we try to introduce anything new. He has been 33 lbs. for a year or more and I am sewing up his pants so they don't fall off. When will this "battle of the cleft" ever end????
Jonah was begging to sit at the counter so I put him up there with a marker and paper...He was so proud.
And one day I went out of the living room for a minute and when I came back in this is what I found. He was dangling his legs watching tv. So cute!
And the other night after getting out of the bath he discovered his nose holes!!!
They were playing with "Moon sand"
They were dressed up for picture day at school.
Well the boys went for their cleaning at the Fun Dentist again. Jaron's two front teeth have more decay. He has already had them filled once and now they are suggesting we just pull them. They are very thin teeth and fragile so trying to "Rebuild" them would be very difficult. I consulted his doctors in Boston and they suggested trying to rebuild it if possible but if the decay has progressed to infection then we need to pull them. Infection in teeth cannot be helped by antibiotics and it will spread to other teeth. Jaron's teeth aren't infected~yet so I think I am going to call them in the morning to and ask them to try and rebuild it. It might break off and not work but we atleast need to try. The dentist in Boston said that pulling teeth this early could mean bone loss but if it has to be done then do it.
Here's a close up of his teeth. He is missing the to incisors beside his front teeth. I guess they'll never be there not really sure. His top teeth are very sensitive and he does NOT like having his teeth brushed. We have started a more agressive approach for his oral hygiene, incorporating floss and flouride mouth was to his daily routine. He does not like it but it has to be done.
He loves Blue's Clues & Baby Einstein
Superman PJ's...not sure why he's making that face...sick of the pictures I guess
kisses for daddy.....We are a little concerned about his speech....he's only saying a few words "ball" "dada" "more". The doctor said if he doesn't start talking by 18 mo. we might need to have him evaluated for speech. Ugh!
Beautiful face...
All dressed up for church but he would NOT stand up....he kept sitting so this is the best picture I could get...holding his little new testament
He's learned a new technique or should I say bad habit.
And also a new hiding place.
He LOVES his daddy....still don't say mama...just ball and dada..
We were given this suit and it fit Jacob perfectly. He wore it to church Sunday and everyone complimented him. He's growing up so fast.
The other day Jacob wanted to play outside and I didn't want to move the van so he went out and sat in the driver seat and was pouting....had to capture the moment.
They all got blowpops....couldn't even finish them...too big.
The boys were doing headstands
Nothing like a blowpop...too bad none of them could finish them. My boys aren't very fond of candy. I don't give it to them much so they don't want a lot of it.
They love to wear this raincoat...I think he looks like a duck QUACK QUACK!
Football with skateboarding helmets
silly boy....tucked in his shirt and then went and got this hat and said "check this out mommy"
"Look I have one big tooth" it's the magnet for the dentist office....
waiting on the bus the first day....
chillin with daddy
about to fall off the couch.....
sat on Jaron's head...
loving the slide...he climbed up in several times and stood up....if I tried to help him he cried....
napping during the yardsale
finally starting to feed himself after one week at pre-k and tasting all sorts of new things: chicken, peaches, pears, pineapple, corn dog, peas, noodles...he hasn't cleared his plate but it's a HUGE step for him to be tasting each thing. stuff he's never had before.....when we try at home he just cries so I think seeing a whole table full of kids his age eating the same thing he feels kinda like it's "normal".
saying his bedtime prayer...
ahhh....nothing like a push pop
wearing his skateboarding helmet and told daddy he was playing football....
