Growing up too fast!!!

I can't believe how big my kiddos are getting. Zain will be 2 months old tomorrow and Hana turned 17 months last week!!

Zain is a little eating monster....I can't imagine how much he is going to weigh at his drs. appt. next week. I'm guessing by then he'll be about 15 pounds. He looks like he is about 4 or 5 months old! It's so sweet because he is now smiling back and oohing and aahing at you when you smile and talk to him. That makes waking up every couple hours with him all worth it! He's really kicking his legs a lot and is ready to get moving....when he has tummy time he gets his legs up under him, but doesn't understand why he won't go...he'll figure out soon enough that he has to move his arms too :)

Hana on the other hand acts like she is about 15 years old! Although you can't understand what she is saying, she has some deep thoughts that she likes to let you know about. She learned how to tell secrets with Daddy too! She's said a few words lately. The other day she pointed up at the fan/light and said, "light"....I was so proud of her. And this morning I had her plate out for her and she pointed at it before she grabbed one, looked at me and asked, "bite?" It was so awesome...I figure she will be talking up a storm not too long from now. We bought her a potty also. She knows what it is and likes to sit on it. Although we are just having fun with it right now because she is still too small to really understand. But she is starting to point at her diaper after she's gone in it. So that is a wonderful start.....

Thaer is doing so so. He is still really sore from having the neurostimulator put in his back last week, but he's already returned back to work and is pushing on. I don't know what I would do without him. He helps out so much even after getting up and going to work at 5am and not getting home til around 4pm....Hopefully soon we will be able to get Zain a crib and get him out of our bed so maybe Thaer and I can sleep in the same room!

I am doing well, just same ol same ol. Get up, change diapers, feed kids, do laundry, do dishes, put Hana down for nap, get Hana up from nap, change diapers, lunch, play, put Hana down for afternoon nap, get Hana up from nap, change diapers, play, Daddy comes home, dinner at 630p, baths, and bedtime at 8pm...then we have Zain...he still isn't on a schedule and we won't start pushing one for another month or 2....right now he's just "on demand"....But....I've lost more weight!!! I'm down 25 pounds in 8 weeks! Woo Hoo! Only 15 more to go!

Thanks for checking in.....
