*** Happy 8 Months Zacary Brenden ***

Happy 8 months to my Zacary Brenden!! It is hard to believe that my baby will be 1 in 4 months – crazy!!! Before I know it I am gunna be planning his 1st bday and so on… my oh my! And then after that turn Eli will soon be 3 – my oh my!!! I wish time would just FREEZE please! :]

What are you up to these days my lil guy!?!? I do know that to start off I must say that no matter how much you and Eli grow – you 2 will always be my sweet lil babies!!!! I do not care if you are 40 and 38 – you will STILL always be my sweet baby boys!!!

You are showing so much love to us!!! You have always done this of course but as you grow it is so sweet to watch even more! You get so happy and crawl to me just to be held, to see me, to smile so big, to touch my face, touch my hair -- it's adorable! You smile to Eli so much too and of course awesome Daddy too!!!! I just absolutely love it!!!

You wear size 3 diapers and could wear size 4 as well but I am using up the last bit of 3’s that we have hehe and they still fit you just dandy! You are wearing 9 month and 12 month clothes We go to the Dr at the end of June for is 9 month check up and I am anxious to see how much you weigh and how long you are! When Eli was 9 months old he weighed 22 lbs 2 oz and was 29 inches long – I am pretty sure you will be close to that if not the same! You are a solid lil guy just like Eli always was as a baby!!!! Sooo stinkin adorable I just love it :]

You take one 3 hour nap a day that is usually 1pm ish to 4 pm ish and you sleep all night from about 9:00 pm to 7-7:30 am! You are a very good sleeper just like big brother!!! You also sleep through anything at night just like Eli too – you 2 have so many things a like and it’s so cute :]

You love to be in the bath tub – you kick your feet a mile a minute and are nothing but smiles and love to be in the tub with Eli too!!! Eli loves to play with him and he laughs and laughs and it is so adorable! I loooove their age difference and how close they are! Eli has been at the perfect age since day 1 of Zacary being born and it is just so amazing to see the 2 of them so cute and close already <3 Melts my heart!!! They love to play together!!! Every morning you smile ear to ear and are so happy when you see me come in your room and get you!!! Once Eli wakes up and we go into his room Eli is so happy to see us and Zacary is as well – he squeals and kicks his lil feet! It’s soooo awesome!

You love the jumperoo, making a cute scrunched nose funny face, Eli’s itsy bitsy spider toy haha, swimming, the walker, having no clothes on ha, having your head rubbed before you go to sleep, playing with any type of toy in the world, you love Mickey Mouse, love swinging outside in the swing, playing with your baby gym, love being with Mommy Daddy and Eli, you clap your hands, wave HI, and you now will do little dances to music and smile so much and clap awwww and Eli dances along with him and laughs and laughs – it’s soooo cuye! You love chewing on toys for your poor teefers, playing with your toes, you love EATING and I believe you could eat allll day if you wanted to haha! You love holding on to blankets before you go to sleep, being cuddled by Mommy before nap time and bed time before you go to sleep, you smile so much, laugh such a cute lil laugh, you are a quiet baby with not much babbling but you do have a voice and it is so cute! We are working with getting him to say “Mama” and “Dada” right now :] Not a thing in the world wrong with a quiet baby though! You love to try and get into the markers and crayons when we do crafts and so I give you a marker with a lid on it and you love to beat it on a marker tub hahaha too cute and funny! He knows his name very well and is as fast as ever! He is crawling everywhere, pulling himself up to a standing position on things, and a drooling machine that is teething and still has nonezo teeth (I have a feeling they are all coming in at once!!!!) Poor buddys has his times with teething and being sad and it’s so so so sad. Orajel and Tylenol have helped him out sooooo much though – and of course Mommy’s cuddles! :] For the past month you get upset when Mommy leaves the room. You crawl as fast as you can to catch me or Daddy comes to the rescue while Mommy does her thing she has to do for 2 seconds and then I am back and things are all better!!! I love havin lil Mama’s boys :] Today at a store someone said “you must love having lil boys” and I said “I do so much – they are so much fun and great!” The lady said “I have little boys and they are always sweet to their Mommy’s heart!” I can soooo relate – this made me smile so much! :] :]

You are still loving your car seat by brother in the car – you 2 laugh and giggle when we go places and Eli helps you by giving you your toys and it is so cute!!! LOVE LOVE! You smile so much when you see Daddy get home from work -- it’s adorable! He is his Daddy’s lil twin – they look so so much alike! Although a lot lately I think him and Eli look so much alike too! They have a good mix for sure – but Zacary is alllll Noah in looks for sure! So sweet :]

You are eating breakfast in the morning (which is usually cereal or yogurt and the time always varies b/c you eat when Eli does awww), you then eat baby fruit and veggies for lunch and also at dinner time too! You are having 4 bottles a day! Dr says by 9 months he should be at 3 bottles a day so we are at a good schedule for that!! Eli did great with 3 bottles at 9 months so I am sure Zacary will too! Zacary loves the baby food so so much – he is a great eater and gobbles it down! Sometimes he eats more than Eli does for lunch and dinner haha!!! With him teething lately he is wanting more bottles than food and I have let him – poor baby! I am hoping his lil feet pop thru for him so so soon! I have also added more juices during the day too which is going better! He did not like juice at first but now he is doing better with it for sure and trying it out here and there :] It’s so fun to sit with the boys while they eat with the different stages they are at! Sweet Eli sits there and eats and talks away and Zacary eats away and smiles away as I feed him at the table too!

Ever since the bad sicknesses this poor baby had the first few months he was born he has been very healthy (KNOCK ON WOOD PLEASE!!!) I am so so thankful for this!!! You are one sweet lil guy and I love you dearly! You are such cutie and your personality is so cute! You and Eli are so much alike – you are just more active and try to get into more things then he did hahahaha and can be a bit more stubborn sometimes (this is mainly when he is hungry – sometimes he gets very sad and lets out a lil whine until all of his food his gone hahaha he just loves food that much!!!) You are always very brave!!! It makes me laugh and laugh to see how brave you try to be with what you try to stand up on (the stairs, our TV stand, the bricks to our fire place, and also grabbing any kind of cords he can seem to try to get to haha) – of course I come and get you asap but it cracks me up you are that brave and smart!!!! Eli is so funny too – he sees when Zacary does something he shouldn’t be doing and let’s me know instantly awwww!!! Such a great big brother and such a good protector!!!!! – You are my lil baby Zacary I love and and I am so so proud of you!!! You have come so far from rolling over, to sitting up, to crawling, and now pulling yourself up on things. Before long I have a feeling you will be standing alone and then being the brave man you are – walking!!! I have a feeling this may be before he is 1 too – we shall see!!!

Sweet Zacary Brenden I love you so much and hope you always know I always will and will do anything in this world for you!!! You are such a wonderful lil boy and I cherish every moment with you and big brother and look forward to many wonderful memories and moments in the future too!!! I am proud beyond proud to be the Mommy of 2 sweet lil men and just absolutely LOVE every single of it! Right now you are my baby and no matter how much you are growing – you still look like a lil baby to me too! But like I said before – no matter what your age is my sweet boys will always be my babies!!! I was reading a cute book the other night to Eli and it was called “Guess how much I love you?” and at the end of the book the Mama rabbit told the baby rabbit “I love you to the moon and back!” That is my exact thoughts to my awesome babies!!! Words can’t explain how much love I hold for my kids! I am thankful for my wonderful hubby I adore so much and my wonderful family of 4 – it’s the best thing in thee world to me!!! LIFE IS GOOD!!!! I am happy beyond happy and have so many things I am thankful and blessed for in my life! Starting off is a BIG THANK YOU to my sweet hubby… I’d never be the person I am WITHOUT you! Then my 2 sweet lil boys come along in my life to make it even more COMPLETE and to make me feel like such a proud and happy Mommy! Thank you so much my sweet lil men – it means the absolute world to me!!! Life can’t get annnnnny better! <3
