Happy Birthday JT, love Neha

In honor of JT's birthday, Neha was
especially playful and set up shop where she knew he would be. 

Happy Birthday, JT!!

JT's second birthday was today and it was a plane, train and truck theme. Mama, Dada and MamiMami decorated the house in a suitable theme and then the party commenced!!

JT had a blast at his party playing with all his friends and jumping on balloons. 

Even Mr. C had fun with all his family and decided that his Aunt was perfect to snuggle up with and take a nap. 

As always, JT tracked down his grandpa and made sure to play with him during his party. 

Bath time

It feels great being clean after bath time. Mr. C is all fresh and clean and so happy to be wrapped up in his towel. 

I love my big brother!

Mr. C woke up from his nap to his brother playing with him. JT loves his little brother and likes to make sure is ok (he just doesn't want anyone to know). Mr. C loves seeing his brother and looks for him everywhere. Those 2 are going to be quite something's as they grow older. 

Reading with Mama

The boys have been working on their vocabulary by reading with Mama. This is a great way to relax at the end if a hard day in daycare. 

I can roll over

Mr. C has learned a new skill; he can now roll over all by himself. He was playing on his stomach, then decided he would rather be on the other side, so he just decided to do it. He's getting pretty tough. 

Walking the Plantations

Dada's Uncle came down to visit the family and since the weather was so nice everyone decided to go for a walk. Mr. C was content to sleep in his stroller and be pushed around, while JT preferred to be carried. After a little while JT wanted to walk on his own and explore his surroundings. There was a lot to see and do and he tried to do it all. Even Mr. C got into the action by switching to a front carrier so he could get a better view. 

Grandpa and Mimi

The boys went to visit their Grandpa Rocco and Mimi Traudel this afternoon. JT was his usual monkey self; making himself right at home climbing on the chairs, getting into everything and sitting on any available laps. 

Mr. C just likes to be held. And he was more than happy to be held by Mimi. He can be quite the snuggle bug. 

Nana Donna to the rescue

It was a rough week this week and everyone was tired and not feeling well. Nana Donna took pity on the Koba Clan and came down for a visit. She helped Mama get caught up on chores and watched Mr. C. Thanks to her, everyone was feeling better by the end of the weekend. 

4 months old

Mr. C is 4 months old now! He still may not be sleeping great, but he is pretty cute. He continues to grow and he loves to party, especially with his brother. He is looking forward to many more months of play. 

He had his check-up and he comes in at 16 pounds and be is in the 92 percentile for height. It appears that he will be tall like the rest of the family, and the blue eyes are here to stay!

Watering...the baby?

JT was having himself a grand time putting his cup on Mr. C's head. Every time it fell off he would laugh and put it back on. Mr. C didn't even seem to mind. He may be thinking that things are going to get very interesting with his older brother as he gets bigger...

I'm a tiger

Mr. C got in touch with his inner feline when he donned his tiger outfit. He even roared (sort of) for good measure. Gio was very proud that he has trained him so well. If only the Monkey would have been that easy he may not have gone down the path of the primate. At least he didn't become a dog thought the Siamese. 

Out for a stroll

Mama took Mr. C for a walk and he thoroughly enjoyed himself. Of course, it is hard not to enjoy oneself when there is beautiful weather outside and you are being being carried around. Mr. C thinks he could get used to this!
