4 Years and 4 Months

Wednesday both boys had a doctors appointment - Brayden for his 4 year check up and Cameron for his 4 month. Both of them are perfect and healthy, and both of them got shots (which Cameron handled MUCH better than Brayden did). Cam is 15 lbs, 8 oz and 25 inches long - in the 63rd percentile for both. Brayden is 40 lbs and 42 in, and is in like the 87th percentile for his height. He has always been way up there - Rubin hopes this trend continues so he can be a basketball player. I prefer baseball or football, but we'll see...he'll probably end up playing soccer, which neither one of us care for.
They are both growing up so fast, not just physically. Brayden has something new to say every day and is constantly cracking us up. Last night he was in trouble and Rubin was talking to him about it, and Brayden looked at him and said "Daddy Casey, you stop that". It was hilarious, especially since that is Rubin's actual middle name. Cameron is holding his head up really well now, and he talks and giggles constantly. So precious. I find myself snuggling him and holding him a lot more than I feel like I did with Brayden. Maybe it's because I realize now how fast they grow up and how quickly they stop wanting to be held. Maybe it's because (Rubin says) this is my last one and I want to hold onto having a baby as long as I possibly can. I can honestly say though that I love being a mommy now more than I ever have. Most people think that having 2 kids is so much harder, and it's not that it's easy, but I just love having so much love to give to these boys. I have 2 adorable, healthy kids and I am so blessed. I have 2 boys to hug and kiss and cuddle and make me smile and make me laugh (and make me want to pull my hair out!). I absolutely love it!
