My Funny Boy!

So not much is really too new with us. It has been a tough two weeks or so for me. Both Rob and Bella have been really fussy and demanding my attention all the time. They also have been really bad at night. Once I get one back to sleep the other one wakes up crying. I am very thankful to be on Zoloft or I would not have made it through it all. I know my limits. There have been some good times though through the midst of tears and screaming (from both the kids and me). For Valentine's Day we didn't do much. Nate worked Friday night and the kids were up a lot with me so Nate's parents watched the kids while Nate and I slept. We didn't get up until 2 pm. It was really nice. Then we got ready and took the kids with us to dinner with the bishopric. Nate is an assistant ward membership clerk so he is part of the bishopric. We went to Texas Roadhouse and it was soooooo good. We only waited like 5-10 minutes because we called ahead 2 hours. Everyone was amazed at how good Rob was since we waited a long time for our food. He is good when we go out. Then when we got home we went next door to see our friends who were in town for the weekend. They hadn't seen Bella yet. It was nice to catch up with them. I would say it was a good day.

Rob still does not talk. He has no words at all. Not even mama or dada. He can sign the word for eat though. Trying to teach him sign language has paid off a little. Now we are working on "all done" and "more." Some of the new things he loves to do are ringing the doorbell and opening and closing the garage door. He will stand at either door and scream until you let him do it. He has also discovered light switches and has to turn off and on any switch he sees. Every Tuesday and Friday night I have been taking the kids to see Nate while he gets clinical hours at Syracuse High School basketball games. The trainer he is with doesn't mind us going. She actually likes it because she likes to hold Bella. Rob likes to go and watch the game and dance to the music. Ah yes dancing. Rob loves to dance now. Anytime music is on, no matter where we are, he starts dancing. It is really cute and funny.

Bella continues to grow. She smiles a lot, especially at Nate. She goes 5-6 hours between feedings now and drinks 4-6 oz each time. She, like her brother, loves the shower. She also loves the bathtub too. She is very strong and can hold her head up really well. She has been doing that for a while now. Overall, she is a good baby like Rob was.

Every dish goes on his head now.

Doesn't that face say "up to no good?"

He loves to wear Nate's hats.

Bella on Valentine's Day.

I LOVE this picture of her.

Rob went and layed down next to her. They are watching The Price Is Right.

It kind of looks like he is holding her hand. Too cute!
