May Update

The boys are just growing like crazy and my baby 'red bear' is definately NOT a baby anymore, I have got to stop calling him that, even Bryson calls him' BABY' i've telling him, lets call him Nolan, not baby, but we all do it, but we'll have to get thru it by Dec since he won't be our 'baby' anymore. We are expecting #3 Dec 17th, one day off of Bryson's due date, so I figure they will have very close birthdays!
I've been trying to talk to Bryson about the 'baby in mommy's belly' he acts like he gets it, he's a pro going thru this before, right? So I've asked him a few times, do you want a baby brother or sister, and i get different answers but usually it's a baby brother, and I ask the next obvious question, what would you want to name him, he replies.. Baby Nolan....I chuckle and say, bryson, your brother's name is already Nolan, this new baby needs its own name. Well, okay, "BATMAN", (or buzz) what a perfectly great name for a brother, wouldn't u say? Naming him after your favorite character's, we thought it was funny. The next time I asked him he said "brother, NO...maybe a sister, I want a baby Avery like Cole has". So, I guess he will be happy with whichever sex we have, but we won't know until dec because Jeff has made it very clear he really wants to be surprised the day of the birth. I am trying really hard to get myself on board with this idea, it's just difficult with the planner side of me and being so busy with 2 kids already, doing everything afterward will be a challenge ! I'm really trying to get into it tho.
We decided we will do bunkbeds in Bryson's room and attempt to put the boys together, Bryson is really wanting a big boy bed and has said repeatedly I want bunk beds mom! The other night out of the blue he says: " Mom, the baby needs a bed!? " All concerned. I said, well, if you get bunk beds maybe the baby can have yours? He thought about it, well, okay, i do want bunk beds. I told him go talk to your dad about that! So, the hunt for the right beds are on!

So, other than ready to get a big bed, he loves playing outside, and playing on the ipad, he is a little whiz at it too, stinker! He really is a smart, independent, lovable kid, and very onery boy!!

Nolan is growing like a weed, he had his first hair cut the other night! it was really cute, he was so good, the entire time he was so concerned about his bed 'lovey' friend, his lion he so cleverly calls ' raaar', which he carries EVERYwhere, wants to eat and bathe with it, (it does need a bath, BAD) and he says it so sweet when he wants him almost in a whine... 'raar?" raar, luckily we got thru the cut by hiding rar for a bit and giving him a sucker he enjoyed even if it was covered with hair! I was so happy the curls didn't disappear and that he didn't freak out during the cut. We celebrated with some icecream after, and they loved it. He's really trying to talk a lot more and is very interested in anything big brother has, which Bryson isn't always okay with. They get along for the most part but we have daily fights over toys, especially color changer cars which are bryson's most prized possessions.

that's my update for now... until next time!
