It's almost June and I just can't believe where the time has gone! Teddy is now over 10 months old and I'm trying not to think that my little baby will be a year old in less than 2 months. He's growing so fast. He continues to be a very happy, easy going baby. He has 7 teeth and I think one more coming in. He crawls everywhere and is pulling up and cruising. Don't think he's close to walking though. If you remember, Charlie was 16 months before he was officially walking so I'm thinking we have plenty of time before that happens. He goes to bed around 7:30 and wakes up around 7am. Still takes 2 naps a day. He has a big appetite and sometimes eats more than Charlie does. He eats whatever we're eating (for the most part) and doesn't refuse many things.
Charlie is still talking up a storm and has now gotten into horse racing. And there is actually a channel on Direct tv dedicated to all things horse racing. It's a good thing this is horse racing season! We watched the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes and he loved it. There is a dog track near us and we need to take him there one day. I think he would really enjoy it.
The boys were going to Mother's Day Out during the school year, but they are now on their "summer break". We have recently started going to a place called "Jump N Jungle" that has a bunch of bounce houses and slides and things. The first time we went, Charlie didn't want to go on anything and was ready to go home. After about 30 min, he was finally convinced to try it and then of course he loved it and I couldn't get him to leave! I practically had to drag him out of there! We went again yesterday and he dove right in. He got tired after about an hour and wanted to leave. Teddy is still pretty little to do everything, but we got in one of the houses and he crawled around in there and had a great time.
In other news, my 94 year old grandfather fell and broke his hip a couple of weeks ago and is still in the hospital trying to recover from that. During this time, my grandmother also got sick and had to be admitted to the hospital, so it's been a real strain on the family. My grandmother is now back at home and doing tremendously better and we are thankful for that. Now we just need my grandfather to get better. We're all praying for a speedy recovery!
We've planted a small garden in the backyard. Last year when
we Jeff put in the flower beds, he also made two garden beds. We didn't plant anything last year since I was very pregnant and wouldn't be able to keep up with it. But this year I planted some tomatoes, mint, basil, jalapenos, banana peppers, bell peppers and a bean (or something) that Charlie brought home from school. We already have one jalapeno pepper growing so we're hoping everything else produces as well. We're continuing to water and will wait and see.
Now here are some pictures from the last couple of months:
