Finally Back!

Well, it's been way too long since my last post. Thanks to extra security put on our computer, I couldn't do anything. It slowed my computer down to the point I could no longer sit and wait for everything to come up. Anyway, lots has happened since my last post. I'll start with Andrew. He will turn 5 months on Saturday. He had his 4 month check-up several weeks ago and was a whopping 16 lbs. 8 oz. and 26 inches long. He is so much bigger than Ty was at this age. Ty was only 13 lbs. at his four month check-up. This little boy loves his "ba-ba". He smiles when he sees his bottle getting ready. He is such a happy little thing. He really only cries when he gets hungry. He started his cereal this month and hasn't really gotten the hang of the whole swallowing thing yet. He spits more out than he actually swallows. He has been sleeping through the night for about 4 weeks now, which makes his mama really happy! He's like clockwork; every morning around 5:30 he wakes up smiling. He actually slept til 6:00 earlier this week. He has started making this cute noise when I lay him down to change his diaper. It's like he's singing his own little song. He is such a little loudmouth. He'll start his singing and will just laugh out loud after he finishes. He is such a funny little baby!! I hate leaving this precious baby every morning. He's always in such a good mood! It's what gets me through the day till I'm back home.

Ty is learning lots at Little Friends. Mrs. Donna is his teacher and he loves her. His favorite word is still "Why?" This word accompanies everything that is said in our home. He brought home the cutest bird feeder this week. They made them from buns with peanut butter spread on them and dipped in bird seed. We had to hang it outside for the birds to munch on. I love getting sweet little things that he makes at school. And especially the little drawings that I don't have a clue what is, but he can describe it perfectly.

Ben is away once again in Fort Sill, Oklahoma for a two week training for work. I really don't tell my husband enough how thankful I am for him. I have missed him tremendously this week. Ty has missed his daddy also. He asks everyday when his daddy is coming home. I think we're going to have to get use to it for a while anyway. Ben will be gone for about two weeks out of every month from now til June. Next month he'll be in Charlotte, North Carolina. Wish I could take off and go along with him. Ben said it has been snowing where he is. I wish we could see a little snow here so the kids could have fun playing for a little while.

Well, I think I have updated enough for now. My sweet husband has put all of my pictures somewhere and I don't know where to look for them. So, I'll have to post pictures later I guess.
