It's Little Gym day!!!

It's Little Gym day! Shasha loves her Little Gym... she takes two classes. One is just gymnastics and the other is a gymnasics/dance class. Today she wore her minnie outfit because she is celebrating Halloween all week! Po will start in January.

A Red Robin kinda night

Yummo... just what we needed! Dawn and I celebrated our stressful week together over some food and iced tea.

I'M A HEALTHY LITTLE BOY

I went to the doctor today for my 9 month check up... and I am happy and healthy! I weighed in at 15 and a half pounds and measured 28 inches tall. I only have to grow another 12 inches to go on Splash Mountain!!! I got 3 shots today and I was't very happy about it but I am not being grouchy or cranky anymore. But I am glad that I don't have to go back for 3 months!
love,
Po-chun

My Little Pumpkins:)

Wow... this is a day to put in the books! I certainly do post to our blog a lot but usually I just send them from my cell phone! Today, I actually am using the computer keyboard! That is BIG around here! I must admit that though I do not have time to log onto blogger and post everyday (since my 2 little pumpkins keep me on the move) posting pictures, videos and posts under 1000 characters via my cell phone has become a great way to keep w8tn42and3 updated! Sorry to all of you for the many typos but I am sure those of you who text on the run understand how difficult it is to text with one hand while holding the baby... or feeding the baby... or playing doll house with the big sister ... can be! What can I say??? When it comes to tiny buttons on the cell phone I am all thumbs!






As a family... we have been doing super great! Shasha is getting better and better everyday and overcoming the "I am not the only child" syndrome! She really is a great big sister and she is a super helper! She loves Po so much and shows him all the time by pinching his little cheeks and hugging him... and holding him around the neck... and just plain smothering him! We are using all of our available time to do things as a family! We went to the movies TOGETHER. We go out to eat A LOT (that would explain that 5 lbs I gained since we are home from Taiwan!). We went to pick apples and pumpkins. We saw Disn@y @n Ice. We play together. We shop together. Cuddle together. Take naps together. We do EVERYTHING together! Let's just say that we stay really busy TOGETHER! And, ya know what... I love it!

I am happy to report that I am happy because Po is now sleeping through the night! We just found out through trial and error that Po HATES... No, REALLY HATES... his big crib! So... after a few test nights with Shasha and I sleeping on the couch so we could be close to Po in his Porta-crib... we have now moved the magical Porta-crib to Shasha's room where my littlest pumpkin now sleeps straight through the night from about 8:30 pm until 7 am! It feels so good to get sleep! I feel like a new woman!

Po eats everything in sight! He loves food and I wouldn't doubt that he has gained some weight since he came home from Taiwan either! He weighed in at just 15 lbs exactly when we brought him home and I would venture to say that he is a good 16 or 16 and 1/2 now since his 6-9 month clothes are starting to look like they fit! His new faves include... mashed potatoes and the soft vegetables from soup! Oh... and just last night I think he declared that he loves C@ol Whip!

I honestly can say that I have NEVER been happier! I love my puppies and I love my Scott my 2 little pumpkins with all of my heart! I have been so in love with Shasha for so many years I honestly couldn't imagine how I would have enough love to go around once we added Po to our forever family. But... I realize now that LOVE just grows! It is like Santa's magic toy bag... the extra love just magically appears... and there is always more... even when the bag appears to be empty!

Shasha makes Poboy lol :)

Omg... i love these two little cuties sooooooooo much!

Apple picking... and eatin'

It is a beautiful fall day today... funny since last week it snowed! We took advantage of the warm autumn sunshine and went apple picking at local orchard. W e loaded up into the back of an old school bus and went for a very bumpy ride out to the Mutsu apple trees. Shasha loed twistinv the apples from the trees and Po just enjoyed the ride! And who can resist taking a few bites of the apples too? yummy!!!

Snackin'...

Shasha and Po are having a little after dinner snack... Po is scarfing down his favorite... Puffs. He is doing very well cetting them into his mouth all by himself. 1 week ago I couldn't said that. But now he is a big boy you know and he has improved his pincer skills! This little guy makes us smile bigger every single day!
Shasha on the other hand chose to snack on a candy corn shaped krispy treat on a stick... yummo! When we are in WDW we always buy lots of these... thanks to Dawn who went on the YES trip (without me) we are fully stocked once again! I just love this little girl of mine so much... she is so sweet... just like her snacks!
