May 24, 2012: Happy 20 Months my Zacary Brenden :]

TO START OFF I WUNNA SAY HOLY BUSY NESS -- WE HAVE BEEN SO BUSY AND HAVE MORE TO COME THIS WEEK! I WILL POST A BLOG THIS WEEK WITH AN UPDATE ON OUR LIVES... AND THEN PROMISE TO BE BETTER FROM HERE ON OUT :]:] ONCE AGAIN THO -- FB IS ALWAYS UPDATED :]

----------

My lil guy is 20 months today! It seems like the months just keep getting faster and faster and I seriously feel like I just did a 19 month post!!!! Please slooooow down- I can handle my kiddos being this age for a long time so then they never grow up and can live with me forever :]

Zacary is pretty much up to the same ole stuff as he was last month -- but it seems he is indeed talking more and more! He can tell us at all times what he needs (ex: a drink, snack, help with getting a toy, etc) -- Tonight he even brought me the Veggie Take DVD and said "veggie tales please" haha! It was so cute, smart, and funny! Some of the stuff he says just amazes me b/c it is sooo smart! We were outside the other day and he says "Mommy look Cardinal bird" and me and Eli looked back to see Cardinal bird in our yard :] Soooo cute and melts my heart!

Zacary is still doing well with counting- even though he only knows 1, 2, 3- but hey it’s a start and I am still proud of him. He is very good about knowing which animals are which and making the noises they make too. He is especially good with dog, cow, and duck and a pig too :] We are working on different colors and all on his own he remembers the color pink the most haha!!! It cracks me up and just tells me even more he is excited for his baby sister :] We will def get there for sure with other colors too as he grows :] He can point out lots and lots of objects and tell you what they are (tree, airplane, dog, baby, ball, bird, bat, you name it -- he knows it!!!!) I am one proud proud Mama :]

Zacary loves Veggie Tales and is really into the theme song of it right now! It's so so cute and he just smiles, laughs, and tries to sing along with it too :] He loves the Wiggles (we are going to see them in July wooooot), he loves Elmo, Mickey Mouse, Clifford, Toy Story, Cars, Chipmunks, and anything big brother likes too hehe :] He is getting more and more of a memory and it is so cute and reminds me so much of Eli (who remembers everything soooo good) :] He jumps up and down for joy when he is excited for something and also loves to jump up and down on the bed and couch too haha!!!!!

Zacary goes to bed around 8:30pm every night and wakes up around 7 am every morning! He has been waking up once in the night the last week and I believe it is b/c he is getting more teeth in poor baby boy! He just wants to snuggle and goes back to sleep! He also loves to snuggle before bed, and then read a story and sing "you are my sunshine" too :]:] Melts my heart! He also naps everyday for about 2.5 hours -- it differs on what time he goes down based on our schedule but he def loves his sleep!!!!!

He is wearing 2T and some 3T shirts, 18 month pants, and a 6 in shoes! Him and Eli both have new Spiderman shoes they love!!!!! He also is big into playing catch lately too! He will hand you a ball and say "catch it" and smile so big and put a bat up to hit it or just try and catch it and throws it back -- waaaaay too cute :] I def have 2 lil baseball sluggers on my hands and love how much they love it!!!! He has 12 teeth!

You are talking more and more sentences the older you get and it is sooo cute but at the same time... I can't believe how big you are getting!!! You love to have big brother and mommy to play with you in your room during the days and anywhere we go!! You and big brother are my lil shadows and like to go where I am going :] You love playing with other kids in our playgroup, love to be a dare devil and keep me on my toes with your braveness haha, love to swim and the bath too!!! You love to try and do all things yourself, but if you need the help you will say "help me Mommy help me!!!" awwww!!! You are all boy- love baseball bats, basketballs, footballs, (you are gunna be a lil sports man for sure and want to play so many sports- I can already see it! :] You are gunna be just like big brother awwww love it!!!) You love love animals (stuffed and real) and it is so so cute -- you are one animal lover for sure! You love to read stories, sing songs, snuggle at bed time... and you also love to color and do crafts! You love watching Rio, the Chipmunks, the Wiggles (which we are going to go see in Atlanta in July!!!!), and you also love Barney, Mickey Mouse, and anything else big brother likes to watch too :] You also love to give hugs and kisses and it is sooooo sweet!!!

It is so funny because my lil Zacary has his daddy's temper hahaha!!! He is his daddy to the T! He looks sooooo much like him and acts like him too! He is a very very very sweet boy, but when he is mad.... WATCH OUT hahaha!!!! Just like Daddy! It is so funny b/c Eli is so sweet and caring and a worrier like me, and Zacary is such a sweetheart too for sure and so funny and caring but then has an attitude like his Daddy when he is mad! We def talk him through it and calm him down and explain why he can't do what he did, etc -- but at the same time we get a laugh out of it too b/c it is so funny and b/c he doesn't take any crap hahaha!!! He will say "nooo noooo noooo" and get real mad and just sit down and cross his arms. If Noah raises his voice at him he freezes and glares at him and then runs to me and cries awwww my poor baby! He has one funny personality and is always making us laugh! Eli really gets a cackle out of it and it cracks me up more! I know every baby can have a temper so I am not worried with this. Eli had one too and still does at times also -- it's normal and part of being a kid! I def calm him down and cuddle him for sure... and he understands what is right and wrong for sure -- he is such a good good lil boy!!!! My babies are theee best :]

We are working on animal noises, colors, counting 1, 2, 3 and when we get back from Zach and Erica's reception weekend at end of June I am going to try and work on potty training just to see how he does! I know Eli will be such a good helper with helping with him too -- and as of right now Zacary will say he has to potty too when me or Eli go! SO SMART! If it doesn't work out then no skin off my back and I am not going to force him -- he will be ready when he is ready! We shall seeeeee... it's gunna be so bittersweet if he is potty trained before Kylee is here and we have no diapers in this house. WEIRD!!!

I just love him dearly and the lil hugs he gives us, kisses, and just to hear him say “Mommy” and “Daddy” and "Eli" melts my heart! He is a very sweet boy and cares so much and it is so sweet! I can’t explain the love I have for that lil boy and his big brother and lil sister- they are just absolutely amazing in every single way and makes my day every single stinkin day!

Happy 20 months lil guy- always know your Mommy and Daddy love love LOVE every lil thing out of you and will do anything in the world for you. We are always here for you buddys and are proud to have such a good and sweet lil guy like you!!!!! <3
