19 mo old and gearing up for a baby sis!

Yep, my baby is already 19 months old and I can hardly believe it. Time really flies when your having fun!
I cant give you his exact stats bc we havent done the 18mo appt yet but last time we went to the doc (for an ear infection boo!) MJ weighed 34lbs. He's a big boy and keeps me buff.
MJ is everywhere and into everything which makes him a lot of fun and a lot of work...haha!
It took us awhile to babyproof the new house but its all set now so MJ can run free without his parents tailing him to be sure he's not breaking things or getting electrocuted or scary things like that.
We are busy doing lots of home improvements before BABY MORRIS 2 comes in early April....so i should say Matt is busy with home projects and i'm pretty busy with MJ and being pregnant.
All signs point to it being a girl this time which is very exciting!!!
MJ is getting used to seeing me hold babies at the daycare I am working part time at lately....lets just say...this should be interesting.

To my boy (16mo)

Dear MJ

Wow, time flies when you have a lil one growing like a weed. You are getting so big and independent, it amazes me everyday. Your dad and I call you "lil monkey" bc you are constantly climbing on EVERYTHING. It makes me crazy bc I worry too much but you are a tough boy...and you hardly cry when you fall or bump your head.
-You love playing outside with your big red ball (throwing lefty) and playing fetch with charlie and her tennis ball.

-I have attempted to go for a stroll down the block with you but you constantly try to run in the street so you are confined to the fenced in yard until you get it.

-You make the funniest "oooohhh" face when something makes a loud sound or you drop something, its the funniest thing ever

-You love to laugh and clap at anything which makes watching bears games even more fun

-You still love dogs...ALL dogs...even ones that dont like you (like Diego)

-You wear size 5 or 6 shoes and have the cutest high top Nikes, you love the velco strap on top

-You dont talk much but you love making lots of noise and you point to what you want...or try to open the fridge when you want juice or milk

-You will give hugs and kisses but usually not when asked...so its always a nice suprise!

-You show us where your belly button, nose, and head is.

-You constantly try to put your finger in my belly button and laugh when I shreik bc it tickles.

-You are such a good cuddle-er in the morning and right before bed

These 16mo have been the happiest and most fun part of my life. I'm so lucky that you are my son.
xoxo
-Mama

Molloy's in Chicago (Sept)

Mubs and Adam had a weekend in Chicago and we were thrilled to meet up with them for a date night and then a playdate at the museum.

end of summer

MJ enjoying one of the last hot days of summer....boo!

Watermelon is his fav.

Also, here are some summer pics of MJ and his best bud, Carter....they are going to be trouble when they get older.

2 parties, TWICE the fun...and cake!

My baby boy is officially a toddler!
I cant believe is ONE and walking (most of the time).
We had 2 parties to accomodate our Chicago friends/family and our P-town friends and family.

Two things are for sure....MJ is VERY lucky bc he has a lot of people that love him AND he was not a fan of the smash cake (either time)

To be fair, MJ was playing in the water all day at both parties so he was pretty pooped when it was cake time. He just cant hang with the big kids, I guess.



HAHA! I guess he didnt love the hat either

                                                      OK, how about 4 things he loves!!!

GOLF!!!

PLAYING IN THE WATER!

HANGING OUT WITH MAMA~

PLAYING WITH HIS COUSINS!



My baby is ONE!!!
