nine months already?!


Can you believe it?!
I can't.


This guy is NINE MONTHS! I honestly can't believe how fast the time is flying. In a way, I like it. I want Holden to continue to grow and be healthy.
{plus,I am so ready for SPRING! get us out of the house!!}


Holden has been doing amazing. He had a check-up with his cardiologist a couple weeks ago and she was so positive. She told me his heart function was "totally normal". Man were those words music to my ears!


She is weaning him off his heart med and expects he will do just fine. I am so grateful for this.


Holden is honestly the happiest boy around. I don't know what it is with him but honestly he has the sweetest little countenance. He is rolling over and starting to sit up.

{this is pretty good considering he is really supposed to be 6 months.}

He is also eating baby food. Hoping he digs it. Lennon sure didn't.

He absolutely loves his brother. It brings me to tears sometimes watching them interact. I know Holden knows Lennon. He responds to Lennon differently then anyone else. It is quite the sight. Sometimes I think Lennon is the reason Holden hung on.

Their connection is undeniable. Really.



Speaking of Lennon...


{I found these pictures on my little sisters cell phone}
This guy is a real treat!
He is getting so old and independent. The stuff he says is amazing.
He can't really pronounce is L's which I think is the cutest.
{Don't worry, we're working on it}
The other day I was in the kitchen and Lennon was in the other room and I yelled,
"Lennon... I love you!"
Lennon: "I Yuv you tooo much mom!"
So great.
Lately he has been a little rat and been telling me to "go take a nap!" So he can get into things he knows he shouldn't.
Cracks me up.
Life is good folks. We couldn't be happier.

That middle picture of Holden brought the biggest smile to my face. I hate that I don't get to see them more. Come stay with us this summer. We will have a house in San Diego in a month.
