Charlotte has been so sweet with Jackson lately. I've been meaning to post this video of her giving him kisses for awhile now. This is from around 2 weeks ago :) Better late than never!

Enjoy the preciousness :)

15 month and 1 month updates

1 comments

Oh my goodness! So much has happened since my last post. Clearly, I've been a little busy with the two babies. It's been great, but intense :) I think it will get easier every month and as we have more of a solid schedule for Jackson. As with everything else in life, it gets easier with practice! The great news is he's a fabulous sleeper just like his sister. He's already in his crib which is sort of wonderful for me and Matt.

Miss Charlotte and Mister Jackson had their well-baby checkups on Monday. Talk about intense. I'm not gonna lie, it's a little tricky trying to wrangle Charlotte and keep Jackson from getting too ticked. Luckily, we made it out alive and well. It was definitely an adventure in parenting!

Charlotte Update:
- Weight: 29 lbs (98th %)
- Height: 31" (75 %)
- She has so many words now! But, she's super sassy and only uses them when she feels like it...I'm working on that :) I will say, she's been very consistent with yes, dog, bye and God
-Charlotte's words:
*Daddy
* Yes
*Cheese
* Dog (along with "woof")
* hi & bye (has said "hi daddy")
* please (has said "yes please")
* God (anytime anyone sneezes she says God for God bless you...pretty cute)
* Duck
* Juice (this is becoming more regular)
* Moo (does this count as a word???ha!)
* Jesus (such a PK, right??)
* Ball
* Daddy and Mama (but more like mamamamamama)
- She makes lots of sounds that are getting close to some words, but these are her only clear words
- Very interested in copying my household chores...mainly sweeping and laundry. She's actually kind of helpful! She likes to put the wet clothes from the washer into the dryer. Very handy :)
- She's always loved books, but lately she has even more of interest. She especially loves her nighttime book. It's basically the only time during the day that she will sit very still. Needless to say, it's one of my favorite times of the day :)

Jackson Update:
- Weight: 11 lbs 5 oz (85 %)
- Height: 21.75" (50 %)
- He's SUCH a good sleeper, just like his sister :) Although, he's a better napper :)
- His awake hours are becoming more fun now that he's more alert. He really loves his activity mat when Charlotte gives him his space to play :)
- He's an amazing eater, and by that I mean he eats A LOT! I'm a little nervous for his teenage years. How will we ever keep up???
- He is super chill and a very quiet baby. I love him for that :)

All in all, things are great here in the Stone household. Charlotte is really taking to Jackson. Every time she does something sweet like kiss his head I get so excited for the years ahead. What a blessing it is that they'll always have a buddy in one another. I'll try to remember that when they're driving me crazy :)

Here are some pictures of Charlotte being sweet with Jackson :)
