4 weeks...

Little Marshall turned 4 weeks today. He is sweet baby---he really likes to be cuddled and snuggled which is great...however hard to do 24/7 with a 2 year old who also has needs. He is pretty good during the day....but when 3 or 4 roll around...he turns into a different little baby. He is very fussy in the evening....and it lasts pretty much all evening...until about 9 or so, which is hard when both parents are fried from the day...and we have a trying 2 year old who needs his needs met too . During this time we do what we can to comfort him...but man it is rough at times. Everything I read says that the crying usually peaks about 6 weeks...so I am praying for that to happen. Brayden is still doing well....he seems to be more and more interested in the baby every day...especially his play mat. He is also lashing out though...he is starting to yell/scream, hit things and throw himself out of time out....pretty sure this is a combo of the 2's and being jealous. But, for the most part, most of the time he is quite enjoyable dancing, singing, and playing with his diggers, choo-choos and cars. Brayden also has been peeing on the potty before bath and bedtime...he is not quite ready for potty training...but we are getting closer...and I am not ready for potty training quite yet...I am still trying to figure out life with 2 kiddos :) We are excited to celebrate Thanksgiving this weekend!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!!!
Here are some pictures of the 2 little guys...

  1. Andrew sounds just like Brayden (from the toys he likes, to the potty, to hitting) and Megan sounds just like Marshall. We finally started putting her to bed earlier (like 6 or 7) and it really helped.
