The Barone Blog: 18 Months!

Holy Moly! My Boys are 18 months old today. I can not believe this. The two most amazing little boys I know, have been in my life for a year and a half (not including the nine months they spent in my belly). I feel like they are big boys now, who I know will continue to get bigger. I feel like the past 3 months they have grown so much and they are getting smarter. It's an amazing experience to watch them grow. Time kind of got away from me, so I wasn't able to make their well check up until April 13th, so I'll give that update next month. I'm anxious for their appointment, because like I said I feel like they have grown so much. I'm pretty sure William hit a big growth spurt because it was like he woke up one morning and all of his pants were high waters on him. And Walker just amazes me, because he has really become aware of his surroundings and picks up on so much lately.

For a while I wondered when they would begin to have a brotherly relationship, and within the last few weeks I can see it blossoming. They are starting to play together more, which is so cute to watch. Lately, they have become attached to their paci and lovie (mainly because they got sick - will post about that later). They always have a different colored one so that I will know who's is who's, and lately they know which ones are theirs too. It blows my mind! Which makes me think that they can't be colored blind, so that's a good thing. But when Walker spots his lovie, he grabs it and puts the paci in his mouth (which is attached to the lovie), and then if Walker sees that William doesn't have his, he grabs it and runs over to William and will put the paci in his mouth. It's so cute! It's like he doesn't want him to be without it because he knows how it feels to be without it. It's sweet gestures like that, that makes me hopeful for their relationship and friendship in the future.

They both still aren't talking much. But I'm mainly just ready for them to at least call me "Mommy" and Matt, "Daddy" - All in due time.

Here are a few pictures of my boys lately ...
