Devin -- Week 18 (2/12/14-2/18/14)

We are slowing getting better at naps, but most of the time, Devin really loves to be snuggled in my arms--and why would I want to put him down? My sweet boy turned four months this week, and later I find that he is much more vocal, often just enjoying talking to me when I am looking at him. I notice that he likes to talk a lot more when Kyler is not around, but if anyone knows what Kyler is like, that is probably because he could never get a word in edgewise. Devin has also become very good at grasping things and moving them from one hand to another. Sometimes he gets this really excited look on his face when he can "hang on" to something.

Kyler does like to comfort Devin though, often telling his brother, "Don't cry, Devin," and will even offer him his prized possession--lovey! I love how Devin smiles up at his brother, and I hope that they always love each other this much. Along with sharing lovey with his brother, Kyler does not seem to mind that Devin will sometimes take a nap in his crib downstairs. Devin will start to get fussy, and since the room is close by to the toys, it works out nicely and helps me to see how Devin will do when we switch beds (very soon). We have settled into our new bedtime routine, with Devin's bath around 7:25pm and Kyler's to follow. We have been very happy to almost always have both boys in bed and sleeping by 8:30pm...which means...dare we have a life?

Cozy in his "Valentine's Day" fleece...it's red, okay?!

Such a cutie...and then he pooped...I think this was a pre-defecation grin

Trying to figure out what this toy sounds like!

"This is a sheep....baaaa." Listening so intently...

Kyler thought that we should have a little reading time together

I think that Kyler wants Devin to love the ABCs as much as he does...which might be nearly impossible

On his side with his thumb

What a cutie, right?!

"I grabbed the ring, Mommy!" ... Both excited and scared
