At least we can post a photo

Teeth!

Oscar's teeth have finally broken through! Enjoy some super cute picture if his little toofers. Mama had so much fun trying to make him smile to see the teeth.

Teaching one another

A new old toy was brought out from the garage today. Oh and let the fun begin again.
Titus and Elsa immediately began to teach Oscar how to play with this crazy toy.
"Look this is how the buttons work" "here are the lights"

Brothers & trains

This is how Titus loves playing with Oscar. This is how Oscar loves playing with Titus.

Preschooler

I am starting a preschool type structured play time with Titus and Elsa. Mostly Titus, but Elsa is so interested in what Titus does I have to include her somehow.

Today Titus is using kid scissors for the first time! I knew all that scrap paper would come in handy someday. Right? He loves "doing school." Even though he wants to ride bus to get there.

Elsa joins in the fun today by coloring. She does such an amazing job at holding her crayon correctly and drawing shapes and straight lines.

I am in awe at how different these two are. I really look forward to seeing them develop further and to see how Oscar resembles and differs from them too. (it's his nap time)

Oscar is 6 months

Six months ago a little 3 1/2 pound little baby boy waiting sleepily in a NICU for us to hold him. Now at six months old, Oscar still loves being held. But, he is close to sitting up by himself and he is learning to "swim." (aka pre-crawling!)

He is so much fun to hang out with. Tummy time is a family favorite! He's even enjoyed his first swing. Big brother Titus loved pushing little Oscar in his swing. And Elsa loved swinging next to him.

Yum!!

Rice cereal time. Oh yeah. Oscar had been watching us eat for a few weeks now, so we decided it was time to start the messy fun!
