Rece is a big brother!! Soon, I will be combining blogs, so give me a chance. The updates might be minimal for a week or so. He was so cute with Carmine. When Carmine was all wrapped up Rece said shoes, so we had to show him that he didn't have shoes on.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

In the last 6 months he has gained about 3 lbs. and 2 1/2 in. He is growing great. Still right around 50th percentile. He is now a big boy and gets weighed and measured on the big scale! We was feeling pretty crummy this morning so he wasn't thrilled about being there. But the doctor was happy with the progress. He does have a croup cough and the beginning signs of an ear infection. The doctor said that they usually wait to give medicine because chances are since he hasn't had ear problems that it won't turn into an ear infection. But, since I am going to go into labor any minute he went ahead and gave us a prescription. So hopefully this whole house will feel better before the baby arrives. And Rece has an opinion on what I am having. He thinks girl. If we ask him what we are having, girl or boy, he says girl everytime. It doesn't even matter what order we say it in. It is cute!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

My mom(grammy) made his cakes. He seemed to enjoy it, especially when everyone sang to him. The only "game" we had for the kids was laying out bubble wrap and letting the kids go crazy. It didn't really go as planned since the room was carpeted, but the kids didn't care and they went ahead and popped it with their hands. Rece didn't really get into that too much which I didn't expect, but that is why we didn't really do any games. Overall, I think his whole birthday celebration went really well and the party went smoothly.</div><div></div><div>However, now Rece has croup! Not fun at all. He woke up in the middle of the night Monday with a terrible cough and then threw up all over me and him! So we both got into the bath and he stayed up a little longer. Yesterday he appeared to be getting better, but then today he woke up with a temp. of 101, so we called the doctor but since we have his 2 year check up tomorrow anyway they told me to go ahead and just keep that appointment. So hopefully it will clear up quickly, because it makes me so sad to think that if I have this baby soon, Rece wouldn't be able to come visit in the hospital and then having to bring a newborn home to a sick toddler! YUCK! Plus I am still a little under the weather, but that seems to be clearing up.</div><div> </div><div>HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO GREAT-GRANDPA BILL AND GREAT-GRANDMA CLARA!</div><div>And Happy late birthday to Annie (Saturday), she kind of got left out on here since we were so busy this weekend, but we got to spend her birthday with her!!</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

The top three pictures were with Averie and the bottom 3 with Teri, Becca, Phillip, Claire and Gabriel. Rece, of course, got lots of great things. Thanks everyone!</div><div>Rece and Averie yet again got off to a rocky start. I think it was just too much. He went to bed on Friday night with the normal people in his house and he woke up on Saturday morning with 6 house guests! So needless to say Averie was terrified of him the remainder of the day after he smacked her. Actually Rece was more aggressive than normal this weekend. I believe he got Averie, Baylor, Natasha and Gabriel. He just gets so excited but that is just not OK! It was a good weekend and overall he was great. Sorry for the smacks everyone! Someday he will understand that is not appropriate.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

Mostly because they have a Gluten Free menu for Tony. But YUM! However we learned when we got there that they don't sing for birthdays. Great for an adult's birthday, but not so for a 2 year old. So we had a nice dinner and we sang for him. He just LOVES when people are singing. We even sang twice because now everytime someone sings Happy Birthday he asks for more. Then we came home and opened gifts. He had no interest in this because his slide was still sitting in the middle of the living room, so he went down the slide about 6 times before we finally made him open gifts. He threw a little bit of a fit (as seen in the picture 3) but we eventually got through the 7 gifts we had for him. Well they weren't all from us. A few from people that can't be at his party. He got some books, aquadoodle minimats, his potty, a step stool for the bathroom and ball pit balls that are eventually going with his slide. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

I remember SO vividly 2 years ago. Right now I was in the hospital bed with a waiting room full of visitors just waiting for you to make your grand entrance. Little did we know we had another almost 10 hours to go! I know, always at your pace. And just 2 short years later you are in your bedroom "taking a nap" calling out mama. What a difference a couple years make. It is so bittersweet. I love watching you grow and discovering new things and learning every day something that surprises me. You keep me on my toes and keep me guessing every day. But it is so sad to think that you will never be this little again. And it will be all too soon that you won't freely give me kisses and that you aren't calling for mama from your crib. I love staying home with you and I would never do anything differently. Soon you will be a big brother and I know you will be a wonderful big brother. Just know that no matter how much attention the baby gets, it will never take away from the love I have for you. I know you will have your jealous moments, but I also know that you are going to be kissing that baby like crazy and that is something I can't wait to see.<br />I know you won't remember this birthday but I hope that all the pictures I take of you and all of this writing and scrapbooking that I do will someday mean something to you and you can look back and "remember" it through pictures and words. So far we have had a wonderful day and it is only half way over. Your party will be so much fun, you have so many friends and family coming to see you celebrate. I love you with all of my heart and am so excited to see you explore through the next year!<br />Love,<br />Mama<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4lsg-RWkRwmfeFfTlqw5796LYsoXSQfT8hBjXuVAgvpsxwyyX-ealYbluBDUIWfVXjT-iv-b8dVUWdWUgaHy7aTsxt4_4N53L0GG320zMUJVfAdn_C05DlRsR0jn786HMEhQW/s1600-h/January+2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5015501078925864834" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4lsg-RWkRwmfeFfTlqw5796LYsoXSQfT8hBjXuVAgvpsxwyyX-ealYbluBDUIWfVXjT-iv-b8dVUWdWUgaHy7aTsxt4_4N53L0GG320zMUJVfAdn_C05DlRsR0jn786HMEhQW/s320/January+2.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMDIP9bCt_6CIdY4Cn_P8IPc7epqatJElRh78De23lCqb-2WxPmi-6acaxeP3BOI1c5TT24T1jY1m_0IhTaKcRwJvHdv3vCxYZesod4g8sMTZeZaRt2iHQePNW0IKq9T_bOFui/s1600-h/January+2+3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5015501083220832146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMDIP9bCt_6CIdY4Cn_P8IPc7epqatJElRh78De23lCqb-2WxPmi-6acaxeP3BOI1c5TT24T1jY1m_0IhTaKcRwJvHdv3vCxYZesod4g8sMTZeZaRt2iHQePNW0IKq9T_bOFui/s320/January+2+3.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Rece woke up about about 7:25 this morning and I went in to get him and sang Happy Birthday. Grammy was still here but unfortunately daddy had already left for work. Daddy called later and sang to him. He woke up with 2 balloons in his room and his gift from Grammy was all set up in the living room. So he walked out and got to play with it right away. Later we will be going to dinner and then when we get home he will open gifts from mommy and daddy!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

Rece went to bed at 8 and Tony and I sat and watched the ball drop on TV then went to bed about 10 min. later. And today we had a pretty relaxing day.

Well, Rece didn't really care for the sauerkraut, but he ate plenty of potatoes.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicQK7enAVMxmPrN_MxM3G3M4TpLJBib-2d7KLSC8jRBqf1QeOUzPT9Mw7JlfH_b6oe1Vgl-Eof9myEvIuiPb3642fHxbMxX_Bv_QflNLyQpQC_2wVT4JNck3iqguQo5Mgr0gbG/s1600-h/January+1+2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5015284453660356450" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicQK7enAVMxmPrN_MxM3G3M4TpLJBib-2d7KLSC8jRBqf1QeOUzPT9Mw7JlfH_b6oe1Vgl-Eof9myEvIuiPb3642fHxbMxX_Bv_QflNLyQpQC_2wVT4JNck3iqguQo5Mgr0gbG/s320/January+1+2.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-IFPuElVA4UgMY3OIP3wnKAGCnY7aVzD5hmjMhja7-_dyDhLvMFYmtyfZRfB-5dTOMKdcaEb9LzjPw3MoBfdJtEuFCkYkIkg3BnT4kpTa8YSinaRsrxVLehac8jiO6IAjrKqg/s1600-h/December+31+5.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5015285437207867250" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-IFPuElVA4UgMY3OIP3wnKAGCnY7aVzD5hmjMhja7-_dyDhLvMFYmtyfZRfB-5dTOMKdcaEb9LzjPw3MoBfdJtEuFCkYkIkg3BnT4kpTa8YSinaRsrxVLehac8jiO6IAjrKqg/s320/December+31+5.JPG" border="0" /></a>And this was 1 year ago today!

It was in the 50s here so it was perfect weather. We got to see some animals also. We let him walk around for a little while and in the second picture he was resisting the hand holding at first but as soon as he realized that the only other option was the stroller he cooperated. And in the 3rd picture there was a peacock walking around, but he wasn't too sure of it. And the last picture showed how the night ended. He was pooped!! We had fun and he loved all the lights!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF0ZGn6Ghkx4U88T8udimuwQj1eE4ftDL3RAggf3QNoCLpaMTyLF98dDS1eMHx-DeVqsLi74pcwrdCbindIgIa8Gj_quPtmdDgLtxSkpYS6II6wT20pzVHE_Lsc6TrsgZtA2dR/s1600-h/December+30.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5014765494336357266" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF0ZGn6Ghkx4U88T8udimuwQj1eE4ftDL3RAggf3QNoCLpaMTyLF98dDS1eMHx-DeVqsLi74pcwrdCbindIgIa8Gj_quPtmdDgLtxSkpYS6II6wT20pzVHE_Lsc6TrsgZtA2dR/s320/December+30.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQX57VfyENb_yCmaf8ROG4UrpybGKNovjj_gOD27KwkHfcbAvR_zYPI0Xw_nPrpmPWJyVc9BD442qnjlISRyQqEXeekylcKtPO4RG-Ey3yx35KtWF5s1Sd45s3v9rrT9ls2MTx/s1600-h/December+30+2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5014765498631324578" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQX57VfyENb_yCmaf8ROG4UrpybGKNovjj_gOD27KwkHfcbAvR_zYPI0Xw_nPrpmPWJyVc9BD442qnjlISRyQqEXeekylcKtPO4RG-Ey3yx35KtWF5s1Sd45s3v9rrT9ls2MTx/s320/December+30+2.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGL3Yg9svM2M-yFJsFa1MH-8TRbDMaqO4ltotmMR7O6SWSP9KRLlu6oKmwbyuAlgkVm7urunwlDtYDWTHs_pWrzZ-3hnKb8UAdohHKoCX4KlPkzpePITTgVafBEbPz0OqYD7Vb/s1600-h/December+30+3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5014765502926291890" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGL3Yg9svM2M-yFJsFa1MH-8TRbDMaqO4ltotmMR7O6SWSP9KRLlu6oKmwbyuAlgkVm7urunwlDtYDWTHs_pWrzZ-3hnKb8UAdohHKoCX4KlPkzpePITTgVafBEbPz0OqYD7Vb/s320/December+30+3.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0XKyY1fu446NMwNs9n4qlvrQQwko4bl3S1GX65VK-0s12CKRHYD5z74K02LZHVh_2XwLNtkZ1-hd9Cy_7c_TZCSPglZGS7PBA7ZounxpPfZFKxsKy4DJepaDkLOdAuRPMtYkP/s1600-h/December+30+4.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5014765502926291906" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0XKyY1fu446NMwNs9n4qlvrQQwko4bl3S1GX65VK-0s12CKRHYD5z74K02LZHVh_2XwLNtkZ1-hd9Cy_7c_TZCSPglZGS7PBA7ZounxpPfZFKxsKy4DJepaDkLOdAuRPMtYkP/s320/December+30+4.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

This is his cousin Gage. Gage is about a month younger than Rece. They had fun playing together and Rece was so good, he didn't even try to smack/scratch him once! His other cousin Wyatt who is 3 1/2 came up and gave Rece a big hug. It was so cute, but Wyatt must have leaned Rece over just a tad, because when Wyatt let go Rece fell over like a wood board right onto the ceramic tile! Right on the back of his head. It scared me to death, but Rece was ok. He cried a little and we iced his head, but he went right on playing after a little cuddle time. At Grandma and Grandpa's he got a play kitchen with food, an electronic drum set, lots of books, and a few other toys.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR3MCEWP7ZW77OCcuSW9xoilG_fgzLk-aLJIJf80A50J809Geq-IOj8jQEZdFjCksySqcoZzkTAUSQ1fpYUbrgCjUm9WiVXgRBQpxcL2yLH2p-BqfX3gzYoVBv2-uAraWDD3me/s1600-h/December+25+3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5013636845650445026" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR3MCEWP7ZW77OCcuSW9xoilG_fgzLk-aLJIJf80A50J809Geq-IOj8jQEZdFjCksySqcoZzkTAUSQ1fpYUbrgCjUm9WiVXgRBQpxcL2yLH2p-BqfX3gzYoVBv2-uAraWDD3me/s320/December+25+3.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyoUsOYj4L3-vdNKrVutt-T6DVZHwcyX2tyb4Fb0Fp1ed8hHrL0y0agysfv7rtcp8nUgf-f3Myrw299oWPfkJu_bQcTD3FxDY3fdD6FL_j33D_JGzOALiwxrFgwmSjgSifM9Ti/s1600-h/December+25+6.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5013639143457948402" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyoUsOYj4L3-vdNKrVutt-T6DVZHwcyX2tyb4Fb0Fp1ed8hHrL0y0agysfv7rtcp8nUgf-f3Myrw299oWPfkJu_bQcTD3FxDY3fdD6FL_j33D_JGzOALiwxrFgwmSjgSifM9Ti/s320/December+25+6.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiS0AHcravoVNyUEOKV2NqMaM_aRACVYGmOd9SssWCcqtHtkdJ4NCF_UDeBYW3oZ4KtO3XBWE5txU3au-ihdMWIJO6AQfeGee_croa4RPHpZybEOhkn39LgpZgYoO6NeootKUIh/s1600-h/December+25+5.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5013639143457948418" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiS0AHcravoVNyUEOKV2NqMaM_aRACVYGmOd9SssWCcqtHtkdJ4NCF_UDeBYW3oZ4KtO3XBWE5txU3au-ihdMWIJO6AQfeGee_croa4RPHpZybEOhkn39LgpZgYoO6NeootKUIh/s320/December+25+5.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEREMY!

This is always a big gathering with lots of food and even more gifts. Rece got some clothes and a christmas ornament along with a talking vacuum cleaner and some musical instruments, a few board books, a phone and a hippo. I think that is it, sorry if I missed anything. All of the gifts, he loved. He enjoyed opening the gifts and he pretty much did it himself(if he was interested), but he didn't get excited about seeing the gifts. So, this year was fun and it was kind of nice that he wasn't yet impatient about opening presents. I got a giftcard for a massage! YAY! I will hopefully be enjoying that soon.</div><br /><p> </p><p> </p><p>HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRANDON!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

Rece's latest favorite game to play is copycat. But, it is only with faces he makes. He likes to make all these silly faces and expects people to copy them. He thinks it is the greatest.<br />And he has figured out how to turn most of his toys on and off. That can be slightly headache-inducing sometimes, but it is better that he knows how to turn them on. That means he whines less for me to help him!<br />His party is really coming along. All gifts purchased and wrapped! YAY! Now we just have to figure out the menu and buy some of the plates/silverware. Almost there.<br />Ok, this is about gift giving and I would like opinions if anyone has them. I think it is the parents privilage to buy children the big gifts that come with childhood like the first tricycle, first bike, swingset, power wheels, etc. And I think that if someone else would like to get him a big gift the parents should be asked. Not only because it is a big gift and maybe the parents wanted to do that, but also if it takes up a lot of room what if the parents are not ready for it. Or maybe the parents know that the child is not really ready for a gift like it. Now it is different if the parents specifically asked someone to buy it. No one has done this that I know of yet, but Tony and I were talking about it and he understood how I felt but he didn't necessarily feel the same way. Am I being selfish or unreasonable? I just think that is the responsibility and privilage of the parents. I enjoy doing things like that for him. I also think that it partly comes from the fact that we have some friends and acquantances that rely heavily on their parents and I just feel like we had him and we should take responsibility for him and because of that we should have first dibs on what we get him. Ok this is longer than planned but I would like some opinions.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

He has had a temper since birth but within the last couple of days is has started throwing fits. I still wouldn't call them tantrums YET but I see that happening soon. He throws a fit now when we try to put a coat on him and he throws his head back and starts smacking and scratching.</div><br /><p>But in better news, I am really excited about the next couple of weeks with him. I am really looking forward to christmas and his birthday this year. I know he will enjoy it. I, however, am dreading the number of gifts he will get. The boy has too many toys as it is and I know he will get more, even though I didn't tell anyone that asked what he wanted/needed to get him toys. but some people think kids need every toy in the store. Really clothes and books would be sufficient.</p><p>HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE CRAIG!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

On Saturday night our town did a christmas in the village and they said free picture with donation to the food pantry. So, I thought great, cheap and good cause. They did digital pictures and gave everyone a floppy disc. The picture turned out good, but the only size I could print it in to even have it come out decent was wallet sized and my holiday frame is 5x7, so we had to go yesterday and have it done again and pay for it. He SCREAMED the first time and was very mad at us. We even let him have his cookies for the first one, but apparantly that didn't matter. The second time he actually did a little better. Santa was trying to talk to him and calm him, but that wasn't happening. You can barely tell, but he is crying in the second one. As soon as we were done the second time he signed eat, so he must not have been too scarred :)</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>

This was officially her last day in the house. It has been a crazy few weeks, but she is now moved out. It is sad for me to think that another family is living in the house that I grew up in from the time I was 1, but it was for the better. It doesn't really make it any easier. The second picture is his new cheese face. Or his cheesy smile. He didn't get that from me, it must be daddy.</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>But, in good news, WE WILL BE GETTING A NEW CAR this weekend!

Rece is quite excitable and aggressive. On Friday Rece went after Averie a couple of times, but overall he was really good, but Averie has just had enough of Rece and she didn't even want him looking at her. We had to have some parental intervention to get any pictures with the two of them. The visit went well overall and Rece really was good the whole weekend. They are just the most opposite kids you could have.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><center><span style="font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;color:black;">Rece is growing up!</span>
