Levi

Alright so its been six months since we wrote about our little Levi. He is now six months old and weighs in at a hearty 14.5 lbs. He is tiny next to other babies but compared to his older brother and sister he is a bruiser. He is also sitting up by himself, starting to scoot foreword with his tucked knees, eat solids such as: homemade squash, homemade pears, and homemade avocados and continues to thoroughly enjoy the chaos of our home. Jack, now 5, and Jemma, now 3, absolutely LOVE there little brother is constantly in his face trying to make him laugh. It's hard to imagine the complete calm and silence that Jack enjoyed as a baby while Levi would not no what those two things are.

Jemma

Our little girl is grows so so fast and her current favorite phrases right now is "just joking" she tends to pull this out when we try to correct her on miss used words or doing something she knows she should not be doing. She is such a sweat big sister to Levi and is constantly helping him with his dropped toys or trying to make him laugh with her silliness.

She absolutely loves to dance around the house to her princess music besides looking forward to her Saturday morning ballet classes where her and her mamma get to have some girl time. Recently she has also been obsessed with her "Tea party" where she talks about whom she is going to invite and when it is going to be and how much fun her party.

Jack

Our little boy is not so little anymore since hitting five last month.He has been into Spiderman for almost six months and is not showing any signs of switching super heroes and is already talking about his next birthday. He also has a new passion for legos which his dad cannot be more proud of, because now we can fill the house for little building bricks.

He is an amazing big brother to both his little sister and baby brother. Levi really reacts to jacks wacky ways and is constantly laughing with his big brother. Jack is always willing to go out of his way to help mom and dad with any little task around the house and is looking foreword to kindergarten next year.

It only makes complete sence that little jemma bean, at 10 months now, has the skill to sneak up on jack and steal whatever he is playing with. Just as he had done to her since ummmm birth! She has not only become to crawl but she has this amazing stealth way of moving around the room unnoticed. So she can pluck the toy, instrument, or paper figure from her brothers hand or somehow distract him or us enought to use her little grab nabbers.

Her "baby" toys hold very little interest these days as she is now a big girl and wants to play with the big toys with her brother. I am getting a glimpse into our future as our home will soon be filled another talker and how the two kids will be running around and playing piecefully together.

It has been a busy few weeks for Jemma! Today, the day before her 9-month birthday, we went to the doctor and she weighed in at a hefty 13 pounds, 12 ounces! And she is a lanky 26 inches long. She is definitely making us work for every bite of food she finally takes!But it's worth it.

Our little peanut butter cup is trying to crawl and walk all at the same time. She loves to stand up while holding onto something, she'll be cruising in no time. And she melts our hearts with all her "Mama"s and "Dada"s, as well as when she lays her head down on ur shoulders. Her smile lights up a room. Her favorite toy at the moment is a toy egg carton with little squeaky eggs inside.

She loves her baths, but she is determined to crawl right out of the tub, and gets quite angry that we don't let her stand up. We have a sneaking suspicion that we may have a little dare-devil on our hands.

Jemma, In addition to sitting up by yourself and enjoying watching your brother for hours on end, to see what he is going to do and say next you have an this amazing way to find the tag on an object in seconds flat. Whether it be the towels we are folding, the cloths block, your frog blankey, jacks duck blankey, etc.. You are a very smart little  wonder and I love you so very much.
