We’ve been totally loving being parents of two kids. People keep on asking me if I am now really tired. Well, I am, but its not because the kids are keeping me up. Mason is basically sleeping through the night. It’s the dang MLB playoffs. I mean, come on, why do I have to stay up till 2am just to watch my favorite team?! This television schedule has to change. Of course, now that the Cubs were swept, I can get plenty of sleep…
Back to the boys. Here are some recent highlights that I think are worth sharing:
Cole:
Cole is getting really, really good at baseball. I’m going to shoot some video soon to share but I’ve been pitching overhand to him and he’s really hitting the ball well. Its fairly impressive. Mason, he’s not playing baseball yet but when we do play he sits in the stroller and just watches us play. Its great. Cole is also playing soccer on Saturday mornings in Doylestown (anyone want to join us for a game, let me know). Its typical 4 year old soccer. By typical i mean really, really cute. We’ve got some pictures coming soon…
Mason:
Mason weighted 15lbs when we brought him home in August. We went for his first doctor visit this week and he now weighs a grand total of 17 lbs. To give some perspective, our friends recently had a baby. She is now about 3 months old. She weights about 19lbs. Mason turns a year on October 30. On the doctor charts, he’s comes in on the 3rd percentile. This means that 97% of kids in America who are his age are longer and weigh more than him. Of course, we figure they probably have different charts in Guatemala.
All in all, our kids are amazing. Cole absolutely loves his little brother and Mason is a really happy kid. You should hear him laugh…
