Bottomless Pit and The Stinker

Lately, Donovan cooperating for the camera has been a rare occurence. Everytime I take out the camera, he turns his head. He thinks it's really funny. Thankfully I've been able to sneak in a few shots.

Keep in mind this is pre shower and makeup for the day! At least Chamae is adorable! Funny story: Donovan was pretending to sleep and told me to take a picture. He was out about 5 minutes later...don't worry, the headlamp stayed on through his nap.
Chamae was giving Bradley a big hug during her nap. This is her favorite position for naps. She usually prefers someone with "pillows", but daddy is okay for short naps.

She is growing so fast! She's my little bottomless pit! I've been able to keep her happy for 1 1/2 hours between feedings, but it's almost down to the minute and she's ready to eat again! Thankfully she spaces feedings out better at night. Her face is so chubby, but her legs and arms are still pretty skinny. She looks like a chubby stick figure.

It was "warm" for a couple of days in a row last week so Brad and Donovan got outside for some fun in the snow. They decided to build an igloo. I love this picture.

Don't worry Grandma Milda, Papa Sam already gave us the lecture. He hasn't played in it since they built it.

Chamae's other favorite position. She likes to be over the shoulder. It's how I space out her feedings even more during the day. She doesn't always sleep, but it keeps her content for about 5-10 minutes at a time.
An example of Donovan turning his head for a picture. He's such a little stinker.

Chamae will cooperate sometimes. As you can see, she's getting a little bald on top, but she still has plenty of hair in the back! She will definitely have a mullet for a while.

The best pictures I got of him that day.

We're starting to get to know Chamae's quirks a little better. She's not a little stranger anymore. I could sit and talk to her and enjoy her little faces for hours. She has started to give us some big smiles and I'm loving it! So far I'm her favorite, but only because she likes to eat so much. She got to meet her Granny this weekend! I need to remember to get some pictures of them together before Tia leaves. I can't believe she's a month old! She really has grown a lot, it's amazing what a difference 4 weeks makes. She's staying awake more during the day and staying content for longer periods of time. I still can't put her down for more than a few minutes so it's a struggle to get dinner ready in the evenings before Brad gets home, but we're working on it! I love watching both of these 2 little children grow and develop. Donovan can still be a little stinker and he's still a ball of energy, but he's becoming a little more mature and he's a great big brother! I worry about Chamae being on the floor when he's in the room because he doesn't always pay attention to what he's doing, but so far we haven't had any accidents! I try not to leave the room with her on the floor but she's doesn't like being alone in her bed when she's awake.
