Baby update # 2

Well, Hudson is now 12 weeks old and such a good baby! I'm so blessed. I think a lot of it is due to the principles gleaned from the book "Preparation for Parenting/Babywise. He's now consistently going to bed around 9 pm give or take 1/2 hour and then he wakes up anywhere from 4-5 am and goes back down til I wake him around 7ish. We had a check-up yesterday and Hudson weighed in @ 14.5 lbs. and is 23 inches long! Praise the Lord for healthy, happy babies. I just love him so much and enjoy every moment of snuggling and holding him :-) . A couple weeks ago he found his hand and prefers sucking on it vs. the pacifier. He's starting to make little squealing sounds and respond when spoken to. It's just so much fun!!!
Titus finished his Math U See multiplication book. He's now moving on to division since he can accurately multiply in the thousands. Timmy continues to progress with reading and it's just so fun for both of us. When we're out and about now he recognizes words and larger numbers, too.
Kyle's doing good. He's busy with work - trying to keep his numbers up. They've been cutting benefits so that they don't have to let go of anyone. It's such a blessing that Kyle has always balanced work and family time so well. He still takes time to read to the boys at night and they just love it. He's also very active on Titus' baseball team and will start coaching Timmy's tee-ball team this Friday. Tim is so excited he's been waiting for tee-ball for a whole year now.
As for me, well same ole', same ole' - I guess. I'm cooking, doing laundry, schooling, nursing, doing more laundry, nursing, grocery shopping, piano lessons, and trying to keep a good balance. That's very difficult for me as I tend to be VERY task-oriented. I haven't been in the Word very much and I'm not doing enough "Bible-time" with T&T. I pray that I will keep my priorities straight and put the Lord first, then my marriage, then the children. Pray with me, please.
