9 months old


Well, it has been a really long time, so I thought I'd finally publish a post . I do apologize, it's just a whole new world with 3 little boys. Wonderful but very, very busy.

The 5 of us. Our Happy Fanily :)

Charlie is 9 months old now. He is 22 lbs 3 oz (76%) and 28 1/2 in long (76%). They didn't measure his head, but his head is much more proportional than the big boys. They totally have Brecht heads and were always in the 95th percentile :) Charlie is crawling, free standing/cruising, and babbling like crazy. He says, mama, dada, & Ga! I'm not sure what the las one means, but he says it all the time. Mostly he travels around the living room climbing up his musical chair, learning table, or ball popper. When he is excited he claps his feet. He even does the baby moon walk in the bath tub. When I scoot him to the back of the tub, he claps his feet and splashes all way to the faucet. He loves life and is a joy to be with. We definitely needed him!

Tate is loving 3 yr old preschool and enjoying having Mommy home with him every day. I'm staying home this year and have decided to watch one little friend during the day. It's perfect beacause it gives Tate a companion to run around with all morning. Our little friend is a 2 year old little girl, Claire. It helps with my girl fix and her Mommy is one of my super friends, so it's fun seeing her every day, too. :)

S.Jessen is doing great in kindergarten and is learning the tricks of the trade. Raising your hand, walking in the halls, and staying out of "that mean office!" He likes school and is loving the world of reading!

I am loving staying at home and adoring Roger for making it possible. I will teach again sometime, just trying to enjoy the years I can't get back while I can.

Granny and Pops before we went to do a little trick or treating. S.Jessen was a storm trooper, Char was a frog, and Tater was Iron Man.
