Officially Big Dudes

This past weekend was another mile marker that the boys are growing up way to fast.  We had a long weekend, in which my goal was to get rid of Caelum's pacifier.  Kerrick was super easy as we just cut the tip off and he saw it for the first time, looked at Jason and then the pacifier again and said "broken!"  And that was the end of it. So with Kerrick and Caelum being so different, I was preparing myself for a long weekend, but he surprised me.  I did the same thing we did with Kerrick, cut the tip off the pacifier.  He looked at it, grabbed it, put it in his mouth and tried to suck on it but it only kept falling.  So Caelum and I both laughed, and he fiddled with it a bit more and that was it.  I kept it on his nightstand and same thing the next night, then I just threw it away without him seeing it and he has not asked for it or looked for it since.  Praise the Lord.
Kerrick decided this past weekend, he wanted to try to call me Mom instead of Mama, so I was jokingly ignoring him and he thought it was funny....thankfully that only last 1-2 days and Mama it still is.
They truly grow up way to fast and I am still learning I need to slow down and enjoy it while they are still so young...it is hard on some days being the "single" parent for these few month and to just letting everything go and just sit back and laugh with them instead of doing dishes or cleaning or whatever chore!  They are some funny little dudes and starting to enjoy being brothers and playing together!!
