Kree and Treker Updates

First off Treker is 1 Month old already. It has gone by so fast I can hardly believe it.  He is changing every day.  At his 2 week appointment which he was almost 3 weeks at the time these were his statistics:
8lbs 8oz
20 1/2 inches
This kid does not miss a feeding and therefore Ragen's nickname for him is "Chummers." With Kree, he was very picky with formulas and he spit up a lot, Treker is the complete opposite and has stuck with 1 formula and does not spit up that much, thank goodness.  He definitely challenges us at night though, waking up a little more often than we would like... we are working on getting him on a schedule but have not been too successful yet.  He hates his baths- crying the entire time but loves to be snuggled.  Unlike Kree... Treker is ok without being swaddled though to go to sleep and doesn't have to have his binkie all the time either.  We are excited to watch him continue to grow and develop that cute little personality.


Kree had his 3 year appointment the other day, his statistics are:
29lbs with clothes on so probably closer to 28lbs (15%)  (he is so stinkin skinny)
36 inches (21%)  so still a shorty like his Mom
Kree still loves Tom & Jerry, Cars is the most recent one.  He is currently potty training and is doing better and better every day which is so wonderful for Mom and Dad.  He absolutely loves his little brother and wants to kiss him all the time and is very protective over him and his things.  He is becoming so Independent which makes me sad- where did my little boy go.

This is Kree pretty much all the time wanting to hold and kiss his little brother... it is pretty cute though.  I love the fact that he loves his brother.

Disney on Ice

This last weekend we headed to Salt Lake to meet Ragen's family to go to Disney on Ice- Toy Story 3.  Kree was way excited!  Ragen stayed out with the baby and his Dad and brother and did their own thing and I took Kree with everyone else.  It was a cute show and Kree loved it.
Here is most of the group before the show

Afterward we headed to Crown Burger, ate and had a late celebration of Kree's Birthday because none of Ragen's family was able to make it on his birthday

Look Who's 3!

Our little Bugaboo turned 3 today! Where has the time gone.  I can't believe how big he is getting.  Since having Treker, Kree has just looked so big to me and it makes me sad.  Where has my little Kree gone?  It seems like yesterday when I was able to hold him and rock him in my arms and now it's all I can do to keep in in my arms. He has such a funny personality and becoming so independent.
He is currently trying to potty train.  We thought we would have had it by now but he is a stubborn little thing and when the baby arrived he sort of digressed a bit.  Hopefully we will master this soon.
He continues to love Tom & Jerry... as you can see he has a Tom & Jerry cake. 
Some of my favorite things lately are... he calls his tennis shoes his "exercise shoes" and will jump up and down as though he is exercising,  he calls his overalls his "dinners," we think because they look like a bib,  when he wants you to hold him he says "I hold you" or he will say "Mommy... yur my friend" or "Daddy... yur my friend"
Here is how Kree's birthday went...
 
Kree with his Tom & Jerry cake.  He has been talking about it all week and so excited!
We took him and his cousin Ellie to McDonalds for lunch.  Kree is a huge McDonalds fan.

Then we decided to take them to see the new movie "The Lorax"  It was a cute movie and I didn't know that Kree and Dr. Suess shared birthdays.

Here is his birthday cake that no I did not make, wish I could do that though.

Opening birthday presents, most of the gift opening pictures were somewaht blurry, these are the only ones that were not.



Here he is blowing out his candles, he had a hard time and so I eventually had to help him.  Sorry this is one of the blurry pictures.  Overall Kree had a wonderful birthday and had a good time with cousins and family.  Happy Birthday Kree! We Love You So Much!

Treker's 1st Bath

We gave Treker his 1st bath a few days ago.  He actually was not that fond of it. At times he was content but the majority of the time he was crying and screaming. I have been going back through Kree's baby pictures and trying to compare the two and at times I think they look completely different but these bath pictures I can see so many similarities.  We have given him a couple more baths since and he has hated all of them.
One of the only times he was content.
No so happy!

My little helper wanted to be in on the action the entire time
