Lily and Brady Turn 9 Months

So this month Lily and Brady turned 9 months and they couldn't be any more different. Brady has been hanging with us here in Austin for about a week while his Mommy and Daddy move to Houston. It's been a lot of fun getting to know him better. Here are the stats on our little babes.


At Lily's 9 month check up she weighed 16 lbs (10%) and measured 25 inches(40%). The doctor said she needs to gain some weight and told me to breast feed her more often. I told her I don't think a Reeves has ever been told to gain weight. I like that she's a small, petite little girl. Much easier to carry. The girl eats all the time. I can't imagine feeding her any more, but I am trying. I'll keep you posted. She is standing on her own, and she actually took a step the other day.


Now for Brady boy. I took him with me to the doctor and weighed him. He weighs 25 lbs. I didn't get to measure him, but if I had to guess I would say he is at least 2 to 3 inches longer than Lily. He may be a big boy, but he is the sweetest thing. He loves to snuggle and is ticklish all over. Brady is just beginning to stand up on his own. He is an excellent crawler and gets into everything.


Lily girl may be half Brady's size, but she is a BIG BAD Bully. If Brady is playing with a toy, she has to go investigate what he has, and then she takes it. She also likes to climb on top of him and pull his hair.


Lily gets very jealous when her mommy is holding Brady, and even more jealous when he has a bottle. Right before this video she climbed on top of him with with all her might tried to pull it out of his hands. Unlike the toys, he did not let her have it.


Here are some good pictures of their size difference.


Haha this picture cracks me up. Love these babies.

Halloween 2010

Our Halloween began on Friday morning when Flo got to go to Kaley's school and carve a pumpkin with her class. They both had a lot of fun and Kaley was very excited to have her Daddy at her school.

She loves her daddy! I think she kind of looks like him in this picture.


Of course she made a Vampire pumpkin.


During the day on Sunday Kaley, Grant (neighbor boy) and I went to the neighborhood Halloween festival. It was really lame until Kaley ran into some of her friends. Kaley and her friends were running around playing games so they could win candy. They acted like it was the only candy they were going to get all day. I had to remind them how much candy they would be getting later.


Orey also got all dressed up for the festivities. Whenever I put clothes on Orey she looks at me with such humiliation. Although, when she has an outfit like this on she doesn't act like such a bad ass. It's like she knows she looks ridiculous.


So this is the neighborhood clan. Jake and his girlfriend Madison also decided to come along. Daddies took the kids Trick or Treating while the Mommies sat on the lawn drinking and passing out candy. Haha. Best Halloween yet!!


After a few pictures the Dragon escaped and found something much more interesting... mulch!!


Then she found the candy bucket.


Lily got to try her first candy, tootsie Pop. She ate the whole darn thing. She will never know how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. She sucked it in about one minute. She even chewed on the stick after the Lolly was gone. Here is Grandma getting a kick out of torturing my poor little Dragon.


Then after all the candy they could eat they ended the night with some yummy Austin Pizza. What a fun Halloween! Till next year.
