Sweet boys

My boys are so sweet. I think I am doing a great job with them. HAHA, ok, so they might be a little spoiled now and then, but they are gentle, loving, active, tough, creative. I guess this more applies towards Landen because he is old enough to express those things.
He loves to play with his baby brother. Today I had out the play mat and Landen always runs over and talks to him and shows him things. It's rather touching. He is gentle, and sweet. He tells him great job too! I just can't help thinking that he's learned to be this way from copying others he has seen act this way. (me, hubby, ect)
But then there is the point about him being a wuss. He is tough, he likes to wrestle, and keeps playing when he falls. His feelings get hurt when someone says, go away, don't play with me, but hey I say that's normal. I think he is doing ok, I am proud of him, and nah, he's not to wussy if you ask me. Heh.
Recently we had a family fun day, and had a LOVELY time. We got eachother gifts, and I made a yummy tasty strawberry cake with chocolate cream cheese frosting. We had baloons, and just a blast. It was great. We don't celebrate the holidays, and I want to make sure the kids always have something special for them to look forward to, and don't feel left out.
I am part of a playgroup that is mostly non-JW people, and the past few months have had several holiday playdates, which we of course skipped. Landen didn't miss out on it though, b/c he didn't know. It's been great for him to be with the kids though, especially as there really aren't many in our hall. (or any)
Logan is doing great. He is getting big. He is about 3.5 months old, I've already lost track of the weeks, nice huh? He STILL sleeps right through the night, and naps well during the day. He is patient. He actually can sit up a little by himself, rolls from back to tummy, but only the other way with a bit of encouragement. He is laughing, smiling, talking A LOT, just an all around happy baby. Whenever I get him laughing he gets the hiccups though.
We are still dealing with thrush issues. I tried the gentian violet, and then the stuff the dr. gave us. Time for something else I guess. One of these days I will test his blood sugar. His daddy is a diabetic and I read that frequent yeast infections is a sign of diabetes. Though I don't know if this one counts b/c he has had it since birth,and its never fully gone away.
Anyway, I will post pictures soon, I think Landen might be awaking. Thanks for reading.

I'm glad you are enjoying your boys. I doubt the yeast infection is blood sugar related at his age. Probably just from the antibiotics.
