One Year Due Date

Pic of Caleb from a couple of years ago. He and Cooper look a lot a like.

This is from the brothers today - notice all the food and sippy cups on the floor. There is a lot more you can not see, I promise.

btw...

I was off on a past post. Today would actually be thier year old birthday if they would have gone full term. I will add more pics and a video in the next day or two. I know I am a little behind with my new found enthusiasm to post more often, however I was out of town for a week for work.

One thing I will say about today - two of them had baths at unexpected times because of the large amount they donated to their diapers. I won't mention any names other than to say Caleb & Joshua were innocent.

I am going to start adding a new thing called in the news. If we ever archive this then Caleb and the brothers will have a reference to the events.

In the news: Obama vs Hillary (Clintons) and McCain vs Huckabee. Personally I am not sure I have a choice though I am not enamored with any of the candidates just yet.

Have a great Sunday

Joshua home for more than a YEAR!

Though they were all born Dec 1st of 2006 (not counting Caleb of course), the first one did not come home until Jan 28th. So it is official Joshua has been home over a year now and Cooper's one year anniversary date is tomorrow. Major's anniversary is not until the end of February.

There due date was Feb 15th

Here are a few pics from the last couple of months.

Caleb, I am sure after a race to the gate.

Not sure why but Major thoroughly enjoys climbing under the exersaucer

Have a grand day and hurry up cool front. It is very muggy with a high today close to 80. The cool front hits this evening. It is also Super Tuesday so we may have a clear favorite from each party as of tonight. I really have no idea who I would vote for right now. I do not have a favorite, more like several I would not vote for.

Also the Giants celebrate their Super Bowl victory today with a parade in New York. What a great upset. I am sure some of you have seen the phrase - 18 wins and 1 "GIANT" loss!

Banana(s)

It turns out Joshua is a nut for bananas. He gets very excited when Paige asks if he wants a banana. He also likes kiwi, apples and pretty much everything else you put in front of him. Bananas are the favorite though.

Cooper is still Mr. Cheese Cracker though he likes to mix up the variations. You can not give him the same thing every day else he grows weary of it and begins tossing them to the floor.

Major has had a cold and has slowed down on his shoveling, unless it's a finely cut up hot dog.

Caleb ate approx 15 meatballs last night. He likes them but he has never eaten them like a Hoover.

Have a great day!

Unbelievable

Joshua slept until 8 a.m. this morning. That is the very first time in recorded history he has made it past 7 a.m. Yesterday he woke up at 5:30 and today 8, who knows :-)

In the 40's and raining today, which is acceptable when compared to the Midwest with their single digit highs.

Take care

Cooper Walking "Kinda"

Since yesterday Cooper decided to branch out a little by taking a few steps at a time. Up until yesterday afternoon it was a step or two at most - now he can whip out four or five at a time.

Nice in balmy in Houston today - high up to 68.

A little on each

They turned 1 on Dec 1st and their progress has been wonderful. Here is a quick update on all four:

Caleb (3) - he has been a very good big brother. He said the other day if he had to share a room he would share with Cooper. If I asked him again right now he may say Joshua or Major. Caleb was a little sick over the weekend but is feeling better today. He generally gets up between 6 and 7 a.m. and likes to watch a little TV and have some juice before he gets his motor cranking.

Cooper - ok nap taker, very loud, must have two sippie cups - if not he will try to borrow (steal) one from Major or Joshua. He stands and crawls very well and walks with help. Cooper usually sleeps until 6:30 or 7 a.m. Though he is the biggest he eats the least. His favorite food at the moment is the kid size gold fish and frozen green peas. If he does not want whatever you are trying to give him he waves his hand in front of his mouth. If you leave it on the tray he will swipe it off.

Joshua - has suddenly turned into a 3 hour nap taker, before he thought they were for the other two. He has thankfully started sleeping until 6 a.m. or later 3 or 4 days a week. The other days he thinks 5:15 is appropriate. He is walking and smiles and boasts to the others while doing so. Joshua eats everything and lots of it.

Major - has taken the baton from Joshua and now thinks naps are for others. He is still the best night time sleeper. He will sometimes go up to 13 or 14 hours straight. Major, like Cooper, stands and crawls very well and walks with help. He is actually a very fast crawler when he stalks one of the other two and goes in for tackle. Major is a pretty decent eater. If you think he's full throw a little chopped hot dog in front of him. If he shovels it down you know he needs a little more of whatever else you were feeding him.

That is it for now - I will do my best to post more often. I know you have read it before but this time I mean it, I think.

We are 1 years old!
