Bennett is 3!!

So this post is more than a month late!  Yikes!

Bennett turned 3 on September 19th!  He is our spirited, crazy, fun loving, life of the party child who brings so much laughter and joy to our family!  He wants to do EVERYTHING Graham does and thinks he is big like him!  Bennett is the one who pushes every single one of our buttons, but then he will come give me the biggest hug and kiss and want me to hold him.  He LOVES going to school and playing with his friends!

Stats: 42.4 lbs (99%)
Height: 41 1/4 in (99%)

We started the celebration the weekend before while in Waco for a football game.  Bennett and Nana share a birthday so we had donuts and presents for them!






His birthday morning at home!








And a real life picture.  Being 3 is tough!





A selfie with Momma before school!

So proud to wear his birthday ribbon at school!

And his special birthday lunch!  He LOVES him some Whataburger!

Dinner at El Tiempo that night!

All he eats is queso and tortillas!


Opening presents when we got home!




Going to bed exhausted after a fun day celebrating the birthday boy!

The next morning right before we had a failed attempt at a paci balloon launch.
And to this day, he still sleeps with his pacis.  Oops!

Parker at 8 Months!

Our sweet Parker!  8 months already?!  This post is a little late, but the mostly pictures were actually only a day late!  Lots of big changes this month!

Stats: He weighs 19 lbs, but I don't have exact measurements.  

Eating: He drinks bottles at 7:00 am, 10:00, 1:00pm, 4:15pm, and 7:15pm.  Honestly I think I only tried baby food maybe twice this month!  I always say I'm going to do it one day, but by the time we sit down for lunch or dinner, things are just crazy!  Poor 3rd child!  

Personality: happy, sweet, easy going, very social, flexible, charming, Mama's boy!

Sleeping: He is still my rockstar sleeper!  He cat naps on the go in the mornings, naps 1-3:30 or so in the afternoons, and sleeps from 7:45pm-7:15am.  He is now a tummy sleeper all the time.  We had to lower his crib because he started pulling up.

Likes: being outside, his brothers, bath time, music class, being around other people, holding our hands while standing up and walking, going after his brothers' toys!

Dislikes: being told no and having toys taken away - now that he's mobile, he's getting into everything!

Milestones: We have a crawler!  Everyday he realizes he can go a little bit further and he gets more adventurous.  Gone are the days where I can sit him in one spot and leave the room for a few minutes!  He also got 2 new teeth this month.  That was rough. We lowered his crib.  He can go from sitting to being on his tummy and then back up again.  Starting to pull up on furniture. 

Clothes: Mostly 9 month clothes, some 9-12 months.  Size 4 diaper.

Favorite Moment: Seeing him explore!  He loves to be on the move!  It's made my life a little more complicated, but I love seeing him discover new things.

Looking forward to: His first Baylor Homecoming next weekend! 

He's got his Sic 'em Bears down!

Concentrating in music class!


Love some good one on one time with him!

Chewing on everything!

Trying to figure out this crawling thing!

Happy 8 Months sweet boy!
