Like Daddy

Ever had a time when you realize your little boy is not so little. I have been having many of those lately. Time 1: Jace is well on his way to being potty trained. We started last Monday. Besides 2 not so great days, he has been so easy. Time 2: If you don't already know, Jace is such a Daddy's boy. The moment Clint gets home, I might as well not be there. I don't mind though, it is so fun to watch them together. Jace wants to be like his daddy so much, he tries to copy him. Clint likes to sing. ALOT. He walks around the house singing all the time. Jace has started doing this. Most of the time Jace is singing either twinkle, twinkle little star or his ABC's. Most of the time he makes up his own tune to words or just adds his own twist two it. It is a site to see. Time 3: His is thinking of his future already. Yesterday we were leaving to go to walmart and Jace was talking about how he wanted to be a basketball man and a baseball man (player). While driving we saw a garbage truck and he started to talk about how he wanted to be a garbage man. Now these are his typical things he talks about being. A minute later I said "Jace, What do you want to be when you get big?" I was curious to see which one he said. To my surprise he answered "Like Daddy." This was one of those heart melting moments for me.

my munchkin

Well Hayden is officially 4 months old. We took him to the doctor on Monday and he is doing great. He weighs 14lbs 1 oz and is 24 1/2in long. I call him my munchkin because he is alot smaller than Jace was. Jace weighed 15lbs 6 oz and was 26 in long. Hayden also likes to be dramatic with the shots. I know they hurt, and I don't like them either. He is in a bad mood for like 24 hours after his shots.

Jace really likes his little brother. So much so he is all over Hayden all the time. He also likes to take Hayden's toys to show him how to really play with them. Hayden is learning how to stick up for himself already!

We just brought down the exersaucer from the attic. Hayden seems to like it for short periods. Here is a pic of Jace on the left and Hayden below so you can compare if they look alike or not. I have had many people say they think that they do. I see it some, but not much.

We also have this cool seat called a Bumbo. New thing since Jace was born. It is made so that little babies can sit up in it without falling over. He likes it if you can't tell. It is amazing that even with all these inventions, toys that we have that a baby's favorite entertainment is people. Hayden would much rather be sitting in my lap with me talking to him than in either of these. Thing is, I like it. I would much rather sit with him in my lap smiling at me, than doing anything else. These baby days go by so fast. Hayden will be 4 months old in a week. How time flies.
