Fun Facts - October

Chandler

*Current favorite show is Thomas. I don't really like watching it but he likes it, so I guess that's what matters.

*Thinks that just because it is dark when he gets up in the morning that he can get up during the middle of the night and party. Last night I woke up and all of the lights were on. He was in Rowan's room standing on the rocking chair trying to get Rowan "up for the day" too. Did I mention this was at 3 AM?

*He thinks because there was snow on the ground the other day that Santa is coming. Anytime thinks of snow, he talks to himself and says, "Snow, oh fun - Santa Clause!"

*Loves to tease his little brother but can also be very nice.

*Is definitely taking after his mom in the candy department. Sometimes he will come up to me and say, "I need chocolate."

*When we get home, he wants to open the door and then holds out his hand to "present" our home to us.

*Always comes up to give us hugs and says, "awwww..."

Rowan

* Is crawling all over the place more quickly now

*Pulls up on furniture, then lets go to test his balance. He can stand unassisted for about 5 seconds. It's only a matter of time before he will be cruising along the furniture. Since he is pulling up, he pulls up in his crib and bounces up and down when you come to get him out. It's so cute to see his little face peeking up over the crib.

*Is still as mellow as ever

*Working on two more teeth on the bottom, I think they will be through in the next week or two

*Has another cold and ear infection That's 3 ear infections in 1 month. We are on our 3rd round of antibiotics

*Sleeping is getting better. He is sleeping 3-5 hour stretches now. He still gets up 2-3 times a night, but that's MUCH better than 5 or 6.

*Babbles a ton and likes to say, "Da da da da!"

*Weighed in at 19 lbs 6 oz a week ago at the dr.'s office, but I'm not sure how long he is. He is getting way too big for his infant seat but I'm trying to postpone buying a new carseat.
