silas hates socks!

okay so i suppose i have not told you all tooooo much about the personality that is budding from our baby boy but i suppose that is because it changes daily and is so incredibly amusing....
silas hates socks
screams and kicks and thrashes around when you try and put socks on him
shoes well that is the cherry on top of the sunday
he likes to be able to stretch and flex his toes and shoes just aren't going to let that happen
in the last month we have gone through two pairs of shoes
he also is a struggle to dress......he flips and he flops, he rolls and stretches but do not think about getting that shirt buttoned.......easily
so now you know what he hates
what does our dear boy love......
FOOD!
and lots of it and all the time
a normal feeding for him would be an entire avocado, banana, a cup and half of rice cereal with carrots and apple sauce, and a 6 oz bottle of milk.....you would think this is a big lunch for an adult much less someone who has a tummy the size of a ping pong ball but no if given the option he will keep on eating
if you stop during the feeding for more than 5 secs to rest your hand, wipe his mouth you will hear about it
he throws his fists up and yells at you
he is learning the sign language sign for more so that is typically what he is doing
it is amazing to watch and terrifying to think of what will happen when he gets older
aaron may have to start looking for a second job......oh silas
every morning silas curls up next to sadie to wake her up and gives her big open mouth kisses
which of course sadie returns with hugs and snuggles
he loves his sister and loves other babies, actually he loves everyone and when given the option will give hugs and big open mouth kisses
he has become very mommy focused the last few days and yells when i leave the room he has to see me at all times
last weekend we went to boo at the zoo and had fun walking around and running
the eve was nice not tooooo cold so sadie was able to sort of dress up as a farmer
she was a farmer in a leather jacket, so a hip rock and roller farmer
we are getting ready for halloween
got a few more ghosts to build and put up and a about 20 more lbs of candy to purchase aside from that we are ready for the crazy parade of little sushi's, spidermen and batmen!
hope everyone is doing well and has been able to survive the onslaught of colds and flus
we are on the mends which is good since the weather the last few weeks has been in the 60's and wonderful!
until later
ps. sadie dream from last week: "mommy i have a long beautiful tail like a dinosaur, mommy you have a tail also."

psssss. silas pulled himself up in the crib today and stood very proud!

lost in the land of colds!


yes you heard it here
we have all gotten the cold and being good environmentalists have recycled it
so the never ending cold is still going
though (do not tell the cold this) but i think we are on the up swing
aside from eating vicks vapor rub we are all doing well
going to school, food school, work and infecting as many people as possible by leaving the house
to go play with the farm animals and take haunted hayrides!
no cold will knock this family down we will continue with our adventures in the cool grey land of cleveland
so what has been happening.....
we are hanging out getting ready for halloween and blowing our noses
aaron has taken over the kitchen and has become the no salt chef!
so if you are looking for any low sodium or no salt recipes he is the man to talk with
if you did not know we are on a a very very low sodium diet
the kind that gets blown out ofthe water if you eat one tater chip
so because of this we are making everything from scratch
pasta sauce, bread, hummus etc
which is all yummmmmmmmmyyyyy!
i think next on the list is pasta....(hint, hint, nudge, nudge)
anyway this week we are going to go to Boo at the Zoo and continue to hang decorations up for halloween
silas is loving the lights and sadie thinks the skeletons are hilarious!
until next week enjoy the cooler days and fall colors

the force is strong with this one - jedi mind love


so i don't have a lot to say
mostly because i am tired and really aren't you more interested in looking at pictures and seeing movies rather then me babbling about what kid did what this week
i will say this sadie can count from 20 to 1 yes backwards
silas is trying to crawl but he is tooo busy bossing us around to feed him for him to actually get good practice in
babe is doing great - making little babe hairballs everywhere
meow meow is spending as much time out side as possible - so much for an indoor cat though she does have sleep right night to silas in the eve
so here you go the reason you come to this blog
