My boys are getting so big!

Time is going way too fast.  Today Sam turned 4 months old and Robbie turned 2 and a half--two. and. a. half--I can not believe it.  I have been so blessed over the past 2 1/2 years with 2 amazing boys.  They have changed me in so many ways--ways I knew they would, ways I was surprised about, and ways I didn't know possible.  I am so lucky.

Sam at 4 months
Sam has really decided to pack it on in the past couple of weeks.  Literally overnight his cheeks doubled in size--I LOVE it!  Robbie called him Baby Chunk one day, and the nickname has stuck.  The part that is hard to believe is that Robbie was even bigger at this age.  He is such a sweet boy.  He smiles constantly-even stopping from eating to smile (I know that is hard to believe with cheeks like that).  He has really started to socialize with us--talking, laughing, stopping what he's doing to pay attention to us.  He also really loves his big brother-he watches him and smiles at him.  It is so sweet.

Robbie at 2 and 1/2
In the past couple of months Robbie has grown up so much.  He walks, talks and acts like such a little man.  He talks in 3-5 word sentences and carries on real conversations.  He makes and laughs at jokes.  He decided this past Sunday that he no longer wanted to wear diapers; he wanted to wear "big boy" pants.  We had tried potty training this spring, with no luck and hadn't put much effort into it since then.  I wasn't real sure how ready he was, but didn't want to tell him 'No' if he was going to give it a shot, so we gave them a try.  We are now 5 days in and the past 2 days have been accident free!  I'm pretty stoked and so proud.  I can't believe how big he is getting-it amazes me every day.
