Grace is now 22 months old.  She is growing so fast...I put some of her 2T pants on her the other day and they were about 4 inches too short!  She just learned all her colors and loves to point out what everything is that she sees.  She loves to work puzzles, look at books, pick flowers, dance and listen to music.  She also enjoys helping me cook and riding in the new minivan!  She is working on getting more of her molars and is still drooling lots!  She has started saying bedtime and mealtime prayers.  Her favorite word right now is "play" and she says this morning, noon, and night!

Jack is now 4 months old and so happy!  At the doctor's office today, he weighed exactly 16 pounds (75%) and was 26 inches long (90%.)  You can compare his size to Grace's at that age here.  We are about to start solids with him in an attempt to get him to sleep longer at night.  He is still waking every 3-4 hours around the clock.  He does go down to sleep from 7 pm til 6 am, just waking to nurse.  He is taking 2-3 naps per day.  Jack has started grasping for objects and playing with his hands.  He coos, squeals, and laughs all the time.  He seems pretty easy going until around 6:30 pm and then he is ready for his crib and nothing else!  He loves to laugh at Daddy when he burps, play in his Johnny Jump-up, lay under his arch of toys, watch Baby Einstein videos, and just stare at Mommy.  Poor thing got 4 shots today, but he's a real trooper.
