Brady Saying Names

Spring Photo Shoot

A few weeks back we had some pics taken to capture Finley at 6 months and Brady at 3 years. These were taken by Jenna Bowen at the Horse Shoe on the University of South Carolina's campus. It was a beautiful spring day and both of my boys were all smiles. I could not believe how many cute pics she got in just about 30 minutes! I must admit I have the cutest boys in the whole world! :)

Happy Half Birthday Finley!

Already half a year has passed since our sweet boy was born. It seems like just yesterday I was being admitted to be induced. It is amazing how different our two boys are. Finley is definitely a more challenging baby. He is not as content as Brady was, and simply must be held all the time. With that being said, I could not imagine our lives without that beautiful baby boy.

Finley is wearing size 6-9 month clothes and is still in size 2 diapers. Once we use what we have we will be moving to size 3. If lucky, he will nap for 15-20 minutes a couple of times a day. He goes to bed by 8pm and usually sleeps till around 7am. Occasionally he wakes to eat, but will go back to sleep. He is sleeping in his crib every night. I am so thankful for this. We have introduced sweet potatoes, squash, zucchini, bananas and apples. We also started giving him the banana baby Mum Mums, he really likes those because he can hold them. He still nurses 5 times a day and takes 1 bottle while I am at work.

At his check-up he weighed 15lb 1.5oz (10th percentile), was 25.5 inches tall (10th percentile), with a head circumference of 17.25 (50th percentile). He can't quite sit up by himself yet, but will probably be doing it soon. He loves to get on all 4's and bounce, like he is trying to crawl. I am not ready for that yet! He is more interested in his toys now and is constantly grabbing for everything. I just adore watching both of my boys together, and love to see them smiling and laughing at one another.
