The Séamus Weekly - week 39

Séamus has ticked another first holiday off his list.  Easter happened and he loved it!  We all celebrated hard and had a great time with family.  These weeks are going by so quickly and Séamus is just as busy as ever!

Eats: little man is still nursing all throughout the day and has some nighttime snacks as well.  He loves to sit at the table with us and eat puffs or whatever other food we give him, he is very adventurous. With only 2 teeth he doesn't chew very much but sure does move the food all around in his mouth.  He does have a bit of a gag reflex that really freaks me out, but I am getting more comfortable with it.
 

Sleeps: he is a great napper in the car, usually falls asleep when we take Ellie to school and pick her up.  Occasionally he'll get to sleep in his crib for a nap and I've been able to put him in there awake for him to fall asleep on his own which has been great.  He is still getting up around 2:30 for a quick snack and then he goes back to sleep.

Goes: I went to Costco with Séamus and Finnley and they were both so well behaved, and then we celebrated Easter at my inlaws.  We also did all the other regular things: library, school dropoff/pickup, and other errands.

Does: he crawls around everywhere, puts just about everything into his mouth, can crawl up the stairs (hasn't figured out how to get down, bonks his head on everything, and is the happiest of babies.  He is constantly pulling up on anything he can and find the most fun to be in the girls room!  One thing is for sure...he is busy!

Wears:  we have a selection of some 6month and 9month clothing that he wears interchangeably, mostly because we don't have as many 9 month options.  He is in size 3 diapers and I haven't mentioned it on here yet but he now can wear footed fleece pajamas and it's so nice!

Mama: My sweet little children bless me so much and I am so so thankful to be in this spot.  Life gets busy and chaotic but it is so worth it to have our hands full and all the love that goes around.  Watching each of my children grow and flourish is so exciting.  The sun has been making an appearance and it has been so great to get outside and be in the garden again, getting outside with my horse (who I still haven't sold) and just connecting again has really fed me so much.

Sisters: Ellie is doing so great in school! She is really starting to read and is enjoying it so much.  She talks about her friends all the time, all of the things she wants on her birthday list, and about her together birthday with her sister and brother almost daily (spoiler alert: there is no together birthday with Séamus this year).  She is so exuberant for all of the little gifts she gets and said that our Easter Bunny was soo nice this year!  Finnley is getting better at being more gentle with Séamus, though she does still have her moments.  She loves to carry him around everywhere, she is talking more and more (and we can understand more and more), she lives for sunny weather because she could be outside all dang day if we let her.  She had so much fun at Easter this year and totally understood finding the eggs, it's now a game we play where we put out the eggs and she walks around with a basket exclaiming "I found an egg!!" so incredibly pleased with herself!
