Zacary goes for his 1 year check up and shots on October 6th! I will be sure to keep you all updated on everything from his appointment of course :] I am soooo dreading the shots tho :[:[ Soooo sad!
Zacary is still eating table food and is doing great! He is not a bit picky at all and would eat anything you put in front of him haha! He loves loves to eat! It’s so funny to watch him too, even in public. He eats so gentle and quietly. He barely makes a peep when he eats, he is down t business folks! He loves to feed himself too!!! He hasn’t accomplished eating with a spoon and fork by himself yet, but he is a pro with his hands!!! I have tried out some milk with him already too with no formula added and he loves it which is soooo good!!! I will continue with the milk after Saturday for sure… although I think at times he is going to miss his formula poor baby! He has always loved that formula which surprises me… that stuff stinks like crud haha! But he is my lil baby and still a baby in my eyes, heck so is Eli hehe!!!! So if he wants his formula at times I will give him a tad bit… it’s not gunna kill him hehe :]
Zacary’s favorite foods are: chicken nuggets, mac n cheese, grilled cheese, hot dogs, noodles, sweets haha, any type of puffs, bread, apple sauce, any type of fruits, cereal, butter cookies, yogurt, and mashed potatoes. He loves to eat breakfast and eats the same as Eli does (pancake, waffle, eggs, muffin, cereal, poptart, oatmeal etc) and then eats table food for lunch and dinner too. (he has been eating table food for quite some time b/c it’s the only thing he can eat and keep down with the reflux he had my poor poor baby BUT I am so thankful table food works great for him!!!) :]
Zacary is now just having a morning bottle and night-time bottle and no bottles during the day at all. He has become a pro at drinking out of any type of sippy cup and I am so glad!!! He has been a pro from day 1 and I am sure him watching his brother have one has helped hehe! Now they get in small fights at times over who’s sippy is who’s hahaha! It all works out in the end tho :] He is in size 4 diapers and wears 18 month clothes. It seems like all of a sudden he went from 12 months to 18 months in a hurry! He now wears size 4 in shoes too and actually his poor feet are so think I can only fit these sock shoes on him that have souls on the bottom and he can wear those with pants or robeez shoes too and those are so cute and comfy for him as well!!! He has wide feet like his Mommy!!
He has 2 teeth total and 2 more working their way through on top!!! I feel soooo bad for my lil guy b/c he goes thru bad teething times at times.. he cries and cries and doesn’t want anything but Mommy’s cuddles and orajel and then calms down! He bites his gums with the 2 lil teeth he has and makes them bleed :[ It breaks my heart!!! I hate that my babies have to teeth!!! Can’t they just be born with teeth ha!? Then again I am so glad they are young and won’t remember the pain forever!!! I sure hope they break thru soon my poor lil guy :[ Mommy loves to cuddle you and do anything I can for you tho of course :]
He takes one 2 to 3 hour nap everyday from around 1pm to 4pm. He faces forward in his car seat now and it is a total different story added to the plate. HE LOVES IT and tries to have conversations with us, it is so cute!!! He laughs and laughs and LOVES to be by his big brother and just tries to talk away to us!! I’m so glad he is so much happier now- that backwards junk was so sad anymore. We had him sit rear facing for as long as we could but it was so overwhelming we decided it was close enough to him turning 1, so we did a lil switcheroo just like we did with Eli hehe:]
Zacary still doesn’t talk a whole lot but he does say some words, such as: uh-oh, hot, ouch, hi, DaDa, MaMa, baba, and he also waves hi and bye bye all the time and when you say the words hi and bye bye he waves instantly… it’s so so so cute! He loves to clap his hands and is starting to go the “Biiiiig boy” too with putting his hands up and then back down! He is walking absolutely everywhere and doing such a great job with it!!! He loves to come up to my pants and pull on them for me to pick him it, it is rather precious!!!! He eats all by himself very good and we still help feed him too of course! He will also take a piece of food and want to share it with one of us and it’s so so cute! It is also so precious to see Eli help feed him and Zacary gets so tickled that his big brother is feeding him and laughs and smiles so much!!! I love how close they are and how they are always going to be such great buddies forever!!!
He loves to play with any kind of toy in the world haha! He loves to play with the drum set we have always had that is up in Eli’s room… Eli has always loved it too so maybe we have 2 drummers in our house someday!?!? :] He loves his musical activity table and he will rock and dance to any song he hears and it’s so cute!!! He loves music in general, throw his sippys across the room ha (trying to work on him not bein so violent with this hahaha), he loves his bath time, watching any TV show that Eli loves but especially loves Elmo and Mickey Mouse!!! :] He loves to sleep with stuffed animals, especially his Elmo and T-Bone off of Clifford. He loves animals, likes to try and poke Bo in the eyes haha, loves to try and get into my cabinets any chance he can get hehehe, chase us around the house, play with anything with his big brother… my fave is when Eli goes to race off and Zacary follows and then Eli turns around and Zacary gets all tickled and turns around and tries to run away from him and is laughing soooo hard haha! It’s sooooo adorable! He loves to play with Thomas the Train, any of Eli’s race cars, my hair brushes (I think it's bc he wants a sister someday hehe), loves to be rocked by Mommy every night before bed which I LOVE love LOVE love LOVE!!! My babies snuggles are thee absolute best always!!!!! I love it that they both want cuddled and all before nap and bed :]:]:] He loves milk and is now drinking it with 1 bottle in the morning and 1 before bed! He also will give lil hugs and when I go to kiss him he leans in for me to kiss him awww :] He watches his big brother's every single move and just admires him so much... it melts my heart in every single way possible to see them 2 together!!!!
I love spending time with my babies every single stinkin day at home!!! It is the best and so wonderful to me!!! I am soooo thankful in soooo many ways!!!! My boys are the best, they are the cutest with each other, love each other, are the bestest buddies forever, and make me one proud and happy Mommy every single stinkin second of my life!!!! They are both Mama’s boys and I just love it!!!! I also love preparing them everyday for when Noah gets home… we go and play hide-n-seek and Noah acts like he can’t find us and Eli jumps out and says BOO hahaha!!!! And while hiding Eli whispers and if Zacary makes a noise Eli says “you’re suppose to be quiet” in a lil whisper hahahaha :] I love love my baby boys sooooo much and will forever and do everything in the world for them always!!!! I pray we can be the bestest friends we are forever!!!!! I love my hubby and my sweet babies so so much and I am one lucky girl to have them :]
Our little Zacary- you are so wonderful and honestly, you and big brother make Mommy and Daddy better people! We are very lucky to have such healthy and wonderful lil boys like you 2 and wouldn’t trade a thing in the world for you precious baby boys!!! We are so lucky to have you 2 and you both show us even more love then what we could have ever imagined seeing! :] From the first day I found out I was pregnant with you both, we were a pair from there! I will never forget the day you were born and the first time I held you and how much I thought you looked like Eli and I couldn’t wait for Eli to see you and be such a great big brother to you!!! I snuggled you tight and have every single day since then! It is the best feeling in the world! I love you and brother being so close in age and I am so thankful for every single bit of you boys and Daddy – you make me happy in every single way, and one complete Mommy and wife!!! I can’t wait to see what our future brings and for all the remaining wonderful memories we will always share!!!!
You are such a joy in our lives, and both of our families lives too!!! We are so very proud of you and can’t believe you are one now!!! Mommy and Daddy are always here for you buddy- and will always be here forever!!!! We always always will love you so much, and hope you always know that!!!!! :]
