Kyrie 5 Months...a little late

[Kyrie James]







Smiling and Laughing at Raymie in most of these pictures


I just love this sweet little boy.
Movement: He is moving pretty well these days. He will get up onto his hands and knees for a few  seconds but that's about as close to crawling as he is. He can roll really well and prefers to be on his  tummy. He likes to follow wherever I go...not that he can move, but he will turn to face me wherever  I am. I think he just likes to see what's going on. He is sitting up a little here and there, but he's not  super good at it.



Play: Kyrie LOVES his older sister. He thinks she is so funny and loves to play with her. He also  really likes his rubber/plastic hippo, his teething toys, his yellow giraffe and his pirate dog.
Habits: Kyrie still likes to suck on his hands, but isn't as into it as he used to be. But he has found his  toes and likes to suck on those now too.


Toe sucker


Teeth: NO teeth...yet.
Food: He has tried oatmeal (with boob milk), rice cereal (with boob milk) and banana...so far he will  only eat the oatmeal. But he is better at getting the food down (not doing the whole spit out  thing...hate that).

Sleep: He's not sleeping all the way through the night still...he'll wake up and fuss here and there and  I'll stick the binkie back in and he's good. But at around 6-7am he likes to eat. He still likes to be  wrapped and sometimes he doesn't like me trying to put him to sleep, so I lightly wrap him in a  blanket (he loves it around his face-don't worry, not enough to smother him) and lay him on the bed  by himself and he goes right to sleep.

Raymie {2 1/2 Years Old}



Well I'm a little late, but Raymie turned 2 1/2 on January 17th.

-Raymie is such a good big sister to Kyrie. She is always helping me with him by calming him down,  keeping him entertained and giving him his binkie. He absolutely loves her.

-Potty Training: It's pretty much done. She has accidents here and there, but overall she is potty  trained day and night (FINALLY).
-Prayers: Raymie can say her prayers all by herself (I just have to remind her that they need to end at  some point hahaha)
The night she said prayers all by herself.

Kyrie James Hendricks {4 months}

Kyrie
I can't even handle how adorable this little boy is! He is always smiling and he absolutely loves when people talk to him and play with him. He LOVES Raymie. He is always giggling and smiling whenever she is around.
His favorite game is Pat-A-Cake. His favorite food is boob (because I haven't given anything else to him). He takes a bottle well and is waking up once every night...we are working on that.
He is rolling like a crazy kid. I'll have him on the floor, leave for 2 minutes...I come back and he is 5 feet away from where I put him and facing a completely different direction. Crazy kid.
He has super super sweaty feet. Weird thing is, is they are always cold.
His hands are always cold...and wet because he LOVES to suck on his hands.
He won't let me snuggle him to sleep anymore (so sad)...now he just gets mad and frustrated with me when he wants to sleep. So, I just lay him down on the bed, and he goes to sleep on his own.
This little boy is TICKLISH everywhere! Makes it so fun for me, and probably so annoying for him.
He has a big smile, big mouth and cute dimples.
At his 4 month check up Kyrie weighed 15lbs 3oz. his length was 26inches (not sure if they measured correctly).
We sure do love this boy!

Poor kid...his sister is already dressing him up




"Check up" time

Went for a walk on the track. We had to hurry inside (because it's so dang cold) So instead of taking the time to put Kyrie in the stroller while we were outside, I told Raymie to hold him until we got in. Such a good big sister. 


He is a little Hunk
