Zoomania!! and Jack is 2 months old!

Jack was 2 months old yesterday and to celebrate turning 2 months old he slept 8 hours at one stretch and gave his tired and sick mommy 5 1/2 hours of sleep (had I known I would have gone to bed sooner)! I put him down after feeding him and slept 4 more hours. I was thrilled! He is 12 lbs 8 oz as of today. I can't believe how big he is getting. Here are some cute pictures of him. He loves bathtime and smiles like crazy! I tried to capture his cuteness, but it is hard to do with a camera. I have a feeling he would be even happier if we could both get rid of these colds. Yuck!

We went to the zoo on Thursday of last week with Isabella's friend Lea. The girls had a great time! It was all Isabella could talk about after we left. She wanted to go to the zoo so badly that is almost ruined her against preschool on Friday... So I promised her we would go to the zoo again on Saturday with daddy. We did and she had a great time again! On Saturday we got her a ride pass and she rode the carousel about 8 times. It had different animals on it and she had to ride different ones each time.

Some videos

I have been promising some new videos to Gianna and keep running out of time to post them. Here are some new ones of the kiddos.

Here is one of Isabella trying on her Halloween costume



Here is Isabella singing along to the theme song from My Friends Tigger & Pooh. She is a singing fool these days!


Here she is singing some other songs



Baby Jack...we keep trying to catch him rolling over on video. So far no luck.



Lastly this is when her dog gets in trouble because he is mean to the sheep and has to go in time out.

Sibling Rivalry

So Jack is already trying to show up Isabella. Tonight at 7 weeks and 2 days old he rolled from his belly to his back. I couldn't believe it! Isabella did it at 10 weeks old I believe (I will have to go back in the files for that one). We can't believe how strong he is and how fast he is growing. He is so sweet and we are loving him more and more each day! Here are a couple cute ones of him in his new bouncy seat!!

Video for the Mandel Family

Isabella received a box from her Aunt Kate and Uncle Mike and the kids. I took a video of her opening it so the kids could see her reaction. Here it is.

Happy Birthday Gianna!!

This video is for Gianna. It is her second birthday today!! We can't believe it has been 2 years since she entered the world. We miss you very much and can't wait to see you again!

Jack and Isabella "playing" together

Here is a cute video of Isabella "playing" with baby Jack. I was thrilled that I caught the moment on video. I was about to take a video of her opening a package from the Mandel family so I had the camera handy. Enjoy!

6 weeks old! Stats!

Jack is 6 weeks old today! He had a doctor's appt yesterday and he was 10 lbs 4 oz (50-75%) and 22 1/4 inches (75%) and head circumference was 39.5 cm (75%). I was so happy to find that he is gaining well and our breastfeeding is working this time around. We were however diagnosed with oral thrush for Jack and candida for me...yippee! At least it isn't as painful as what we had with Isabella. Jack seems to already be responding to the medicine well and things seem to be looking up.
