So, now that B is officially 2 years old I'm thinking it may be time to stop qualifying him as X months old. I'm not sure how I'm going to swing the blogging thing, I would like to post more regularly but for some reason it seems like once a month is about all I can manage. With baby sister about to arrive I don't want her to feel slighted, so maybe I will start posting some monthly milestones just for her and then a family recap for the rest of us. We'll see how it goes! Does one even have time to take pictures/sit down at the computer with 2 kids? I have no idea!
Anyway, we enjoyed getting back to our regular routine this month. The weather was pretty fantastic and when I went back to look at all the photos I took most of them were from the park or playing outside. We stuck pretty close to home this month with no big trips or anything. It was nice to settle down after the holidays. We did not go out for NYE but our neighbors had us over for a nice dinner and I managed to stay up until 1:30!
He loves this "choo choo park" on Daniel Island.
My college roomies threw me a lovely little "sprinkle" for baby sister. It was so fun to get everyone together and she got some adorable little outfits.
We had the sprinkle at a place called Tavern & Table on Shem Creek. The food is yum and I can't wait to go back for some of the cocktails :)
B and I had a couple of dates at his favorite place (the "ice cream place") this month. I am trying to soak up as much time as I can with my little dude while it is still so easy for us to get out and about.
He loves playing with his neighborhood buddy, Walker. We go on walks a couple of times a week after naps to the playground or to the boat ramp and one of their fav activities is throwing sticks in the water.
Someone got a little pregnancy crazy around here and decided that we had to have the carpets replaced and painting done in the baby's room. Which of course snowballed into Brooks' room and the guest room because one lesson we learned the hard way is once you are doing something just do it all at once and get it over with. I laughed when people ask me "oh what color is the nursery" because this is what it looked like.
All of our furniture had to be stuffed into different rooms and it took forever for everything to get put back together but now its done so baby will have no more nasty carpet!
I broke down one morning when I had to take B to the doctor with me and just gave him the iPad. He was in absolute heaven and it definitely made the whole excursion a lot easier on me.
Baby's room post carpet.
just SOME of the clothes I got from my friend and my neighbor. This kid has so many clothes already its unbelievable.
This was around 38 weeks...I decided I better take a pic in case she someday wonders why I took so many with Brooks and not with her.
Special pregnancy treat..whipped cream in my coffee. Just one of the many things I will have to give up once the baby is born!
We got to go to the beach at the very end of the month. It was such a nice day we both got a little sunburned!
Can't beat a January beach day!
