It's been a busy month around here! Both boys are becoming a little more active, both physically and linguistically. Our evenings are usually so go-go-go with dinners, baths, and bedtime routines that sometimes everyone gets a little overwhelmed, especially since everyone (except Taylor) have been up since 5am. Both boys are starting to settle into a more defined nap schedule which has been nice. However, they are both NOT sleeping through the night consistently. I think it's my new normal, waking up at 3:30am to console someone in the nursery. If they both happen to have a good night and sleep past that mark, I usually wake up anyways. Since Ryan is teething and Jacob is soon to follow, I guess it's safe to say, and realistic to think that they WON'T be sleeping through the night anytime soon. That's why God invented coffee!! I'm readdicted to it - I love Starbucks holiday drinks. Luckily, I had none while I was pregnant. Nowadays, it's 1-3 coffee drinks a day - especially around the 4pm hour.
Here's what Ryan's been up to:
* Got his first tooth (bottom).
* Army crawling is his preferred mode of transportation. He's FAST too!
* Finally said "Dada". Also likes to say, "lala and baba"
* His birthmark appointment with the pediatric dermatologist went well. His birthmark is NOT a Mongolian birthmark just a congenital birthmark that's darker in color due to it being so close to the surface of the skin. His little identifier will be with him for life and will grow a bit more as he grows.
* So active and always on the go...a mini Taylor!
* Hates green vegetables. He'll gag and spit them out if he can.
Here's what Jacob's been up to:
* Not crawling yet which frustrates him because he sees Ryan off somewhere and can't get there.
* Has recently decided that he can just roll continuously until he reaches his destination. It's cute to see because he does this tuck-and-roll with his head because of the hardwood floors...he's learned it's not a soft surface!
* No teeth as of today.
* Loves the Christmas lights on the tree.
* Said "Mama" one day when I was leaving for work. Broke my heart...needless to say I was a bit late that day!
* Loves all foods as of now. Just eats whatever you give him and hardly ever complains.
Merry Christmas from the CW Family

Happy New Year 2013
