Going from 1 to 2.

I love being a mommy. This week has really been an enjoyable week with my boys. It was rough right after Christmas and Billy going back to work and Holden waking up every hour sometimes twice in an hour. I was about to lose my mind on those days. If you ask my hubby I may have a few times. ;) He took Tanner to the movies one day and I just cried. (Those crazy hormones) I was tired and spent.A friend in Mops sent me an email with an insert from her blog from when she became a mom to 2 and it totally encouraged me. She now is a mom to 3 and I praise her. She is always laughing too. :) I think laughter is a must with little ones. But for me things have gotten much better. My boys are amazing. Holden is really developing a sweet little personality and smililng and cooing and is now 6 and half weeks old. Tanner loves being a big brother. He talks to the baby all the time. He tells people about him wherever we go pointing at him and saying "that is my brother Holden." He always says " it is o.k. Holden, Tanner is here." I have been reading to Tanner again every night and I took Holden in there with us a few times. Well last night he was asleep in the bouncy. As we were settling in and Tanner was picking out his books he said "we need Holden mommy" Ahh sweetest boy. I am so blessed to be a mommy and it is the toughest thing I have ever done. Tanner ask to hold his brother all the time. My son is so smart.We played with puzzles last night and Potato Heads and I love spending time with my children. Tanner does have his cute little hang ups like his obsession with Frosty!! :) Through Christmas it was building Frosty, seeing Frosty, watching Frosty, and collecting Frosty. Now he just wants Billy or I to draw Frosty on his leap pad for him or he will build Frosty out of ANYTHING!! I mean anything. From the coasters to the magnets. It is sweet. ( Also a little obsessive) I might know someone else who is that way. :) UH ME!! I want to enjoy every moment with them. I love them dearly for the special individiuals they are. Posting a few pictures and trying to do it all before they BOTH wake up. Time really does fly and they are only little for a short while!
