I can not believe how quickly these boys are growing. It's so upsetting!!! Admittedly, there are some new things they are doing that I absolutely love, but the fact that before I know it they won't be babies anymore makes me want to cry! My little munchkins. If they knew what was good for them, they would stay little! Ha!
Monkey is the epitome of Daddy's boy. It is so freaking adorable to watch! When Ben comes home from work and walks into the living room, Micah gets so excited and will jump like mad if he's in his exersaucer. If Ben walks past him and sits down on the couch, Mymy starts to cry and will not stop until his daddy picks him up. The way that the two of them interact is just darling. I have never seen a boy more in love with his daddy.
Darius, on the other hand, is just content. He loves to be cuddled and held, but he doesn't seem to have a preference for one of us. He does, however, do the cutest thing. If you get him excited or praise him, he acts shy and buries his face in your neck. Too cute!! My little snuggle bug. Ducky really is a total sweetheart. My little man. I love his cuddles!
The both of them have learned how to let you know they want to be picked up. Instead of raising their arms like I've seen most kids do, they stick them out to the sides. If they are on all fours on the floor, the both of them will only lift their left arm. Darry seems to pick up everything from his brother. Mikey started with high pitched squeals, lifting his arm, and the crawling position first. Now Dar does all of them. The only thing that Micah does that Ducky doesn't is he pulls himself forward with his hands to get where he wants. They both sit so well and will pull themselves to standing if you're holding their hands. Two nights ago we even started bathing them together. I just can't believe what they will pick up even in two weeks time. They are such bright little boys!
Ben and I went away for the weekend to see his friend get married. We left Friday and came back Sunday. The boys stayed with my in-laws. Ben started missing them on Saturday. I was fine the whole weekend. I think if we had stayed until Monday I would have started missing them, but I was totally ok not having them. Don't get me wrong, it was great to walk in and see their little faces again. But I think I just get so much baby time that I thoroughly enjoy my time away. I love my children more than I can put into words. But Mama also loves her sleep!!
Somebody is up from his nap. So this blog is over. Laters!
