Thanksgiving Chaos

This year for Thanksgiving we had 7 children 2 and under in Joe's family. We watched the boys chase each other all night and the moms trying to figure our whose pacifier is whose. It was a lot of fun, but tiring.

Andrew will be 1 month old tomorrow and has been such a blessing. He goes with the flow which is usually choas and sleeps wonderfully and can fall asleep without a pacifier. Amazing! Aiden on the other hand has turned into a 2yr old even though he is only 22months. He's waking up in the night now and crawling into bed with us. Something he's never done before. We had pictures taken this morning for Christmas and somehow we had a couple that turned out. Aiden was not cooperating but when we left him alone to do his own thing, we got a couple good ones.

Miles of Smiles

Andrew loves being talked to and he'll make little noises to let you know he appreciates the attention. The last couple days he's been smiling when you talk to him and it's so sweet. Aiden is liking the big brother role and this week I caught him holding Andrew's hand in the car. Andrew's been good to us so far and on Thursday night, he slept for 7 hours. Joe said he got up to make sure he was still breathing, but I slept right through. That's the longest I've slept in a long time.

Andrew is adjusting to being home and is gaining some of his weight back. He went from 7lbs, 6oz to 6lbs 12oz and is back up to 6lbs 14oz. He hasn't woke crying in the night yet. I've had to wake him every time to eat, so I'm hoping this continues.

Aiden got to go trick or treating with dad last night for the first time. He loved wearing his Tigger outfit and enjoyed getting the candy. I snuck him a 3 Muskateers bar when Joe wasn't looking. =).

Joe and I think Andrew could be a "Who" like from the movie "The Grinch." He has an elfy look right now. Only I can say that though because I'm mom.=)
