Kid Update #2

Oliver - 2 Months Old
* We found out he had a double ear infection at his Well-Child Checkup....so sad!
* He's a great sleeper...usually only wakes up once a night around 5:00am. He is showing his brother up big time!
* LOVES to be held. Actually, demands to be held 99.9% of the time.
* Cries when his brother gets anywhere near him. He is like an Elliot alarm system.
* Absolutely hates the car and his car seat. Screams the whole time!
* Stats....
-11 lbs. 14 oz. 75%
- 23 3/4" long 75-90%
-15 3/4" head 50-75%

Elliot - 23 Months Old
* Still obsessed with motorcycles.
* FINALLY starting to mimic what we say thanks to speech therapy. To date we have heard him say: juice, wa-wa, happy, yeah, wow, no, boots, da, jo-jo, ice (Bryce)....I would like to note that my son says his uncle's name and dad, but has yet to say any form of mom...sniff, sniff!
* The other day I found the door open with Elliot no where in sight. I threw my boots on, grabbed the baby, and ran outside in my pajamas in the pouring rain to find my meandering son. He had decided to go for a walk all by himself. I found him out near the main street, with his hands in his pockets, just going for a leisurely walk. When I found him he looked at me like it was no big deal.
* He still loves to ride his bike, be outside, and go to the park.
* He has a new found fascination with trains. He is really good at putting the tracks together himeself.
* He enjoys purposely crashing his bike and rolling it ontop of himself in a very dramatic manner. I think he has watched too many episodes of On Any Sunday.
* Speaking of On Any Sunday, he enjoys 70's movies. CHIPS is also another one of his faves. I put Shrek on the other day and he was apauled. He cried until I put on CHIPS....weird kid.

Loved the updates on your boys. Sounds like you might need to install a chain lock on your front door. That must have been so scary to find Elliot outside by himself.
