Life

These past few weeks have been so fun, crazy and busy! Arland just got over being sick for two weeks, first week was the croup, second week was a virus that he picked up while his immune system was week with the croup! Holy Cow the poor kid needs a break from being sick. All he wanted to do was sit in mommies bed and drink powerade with orange juice, and animal crackers. He is skinny already and I swear him being sick did not help our efforts in helping Arland gain weight. He was down in his weight from when he was 15 months! He is now 17 months! I cant believe how fast he is growing and changing. The biggest change this month is that Arland is now WALKING! woo hoo! It was the funniest thing because Heath and I decided to work with him one day and he didnt just take 2 or 3 steps he full on walked from the living room into the kitchen and has loved the freedom of walking now! We have loved watching him explore. Some of his favorite things this month are: WALKING, playing the paino with aunt Sophie (he squeels everytime she plays), TRUCKS! holy cow this boy loves his trucks (especially his truck right now that makes noise when it goes and it actually drives when you push the button, Otter Pops, lolipops, swimming (water in general), Pazely (Big Dogs) our little puppies scare him (Paze had 9 puppies a couple weeks ago! Arland is having a hard time sleeping in his bed right now because he has been sick so that means that he gets to sleep with Heath and I (I know bad idea) But that is what we have been up to lately!

This is Arland with his cousins Gavin and Landon (they are 9...ha ha) Arland loves them!

This week was also SO exciting because Arland gained another cousin! Flynn was born last week and he is one of the most beautiful babies ever! Seriously I am not biased at all, but do you see what I mean?! I am one lucky aunt!

Arland and I went swimming last week and what is a day at the pool if you dont have lollipops and cookies!

 This is a picture of Arland when he was sick...the poor kid did not feel good!

 So there was alot of snuggle time, I love this picture! I have the two cutest boys!

Arland's 15 month stats!

Well not much has gone on lately at the Pulham house. We are just enjoying the fun weather and playing outside. Arland had his 15 month appt a couple weeks ago and let me tell you the kids stats didnt change much. He is still skinny and tall! Arland is:

19.75 lbs 1%

32 in. tall 80%

head circ. 45%

Arland, These past couple months you have changed so much in the things that you eat, (anything with cheese! STRAWBERRIES are your favorite! Peanut Butter sandwiches, peas, corn, black beans, and you love popsicles right now!)

The things that you say are histaricle! (mama, DADA! (you shout his name all the time), Go. You also make animal noises, baaa for lamb, mooo for cow and elephant and every other animal haha, grrr for bear, and you LOVE trucks and make a noise for them too. You love to be outside with Pazely in the backyard. Mommy will put the sprinkler together so that you can play in the water in the back yard, you love the water and you love to sit on your little fourwheeler with the hose in your hand and spray Paze as she walks past.

You are not sleeping the best these days and daddy is a little tired of sharing the bed with you. I think that it is because your room is so hot and mommy and daddys room is a little cooler. You also have 8 teeth with a molar on the bottom and one coming in on top!

You are walking with holding one hand right now, you are SO close to walking all by your self! I think that you may have fallen some where along the way which made you scared to walk now but you are getting more brave every day!

You love to play with your trucks and dinasaurs (true boy) and you love to watch the Lion King and Rio is your ultimate favorite!) We love you arland and we are so happy that we get to enjoy you in our life everyday!

On one of our many bike rides! You love to go outside with the bike!

Daddy holding you to get your shots!
