Little Big Man, Jedidiah

Jed is sooo full of energy everyday. He is quite hard to keep up with especially when you have to pee every 5 minutes and can't run and chase after him like you used to...

Some new things he is doing these days:

* He is 2 years and 3 months old now, and has been potty trained for almost 7 months now.
*He loves being outside "working" with Daddy on his machines
*He loves brushing his teeth
*Favorite movie is Lion King and The Chronicles of Narnia (a.k.a. The Lion Movie)
*He roars like "Simba" and when he gets carried away bites and scratches like a real lion. We're trying to teach him that he really isn't a lion, and can only pretend to bite and scratch. :)
*He has perfected counting to ten, and is working on counting to fifteen.
*He loves sleeping in bed with us! He's been in there with us for like 6 months now, and I am not looking forward to the transition back into his own room. Which may be happening very soon.
*He loves to kiss his mommy and pretend like he is Daddy. He says, "Gimme a kiss, gotta go to work".
*He's so funny.
* He tries to feed his baby brother cheerios through my belly button. Wish I got it on video.

Just a few updates on him... Enjoy the video.

We are having ANOTHER Boy!!!

So we found out on February 9th that I am officially going to be out-numbered in this family. This baby will be the 13th straight boy in a row over three generations for the Latham side of the family. Maybe someday we may have a baby girl, but I'm not counting on it. We are naming this baby....

CRUZ ALEXANDER LATHAM

In case you're wondering, I came across the name Cruz online and found out that it means "The Cross of Christ" in Spanish, and then we chose Alexander for the middle name after Chris' grandpa who passed away in September of 2009. We are so excited to welcome this beautiful boy into our family and are anxious to see what kind of a big brother Jedidiah will make. I am now 22 weeks pregnant and can feel him moving and getting stronger everyday. :)

I Think I Can, I Think I Can....

I would like to be more consistent with this blog, but I'm kinda blog-tarded at this point. So I promise to try and do better. :)

"Stupid Lamb"

For all my fellow Twilight lovers: This one is for you! Can I just say I have the BEST husband in the world for doing this pose with me! Seriously....

The Lathams 2009

We took our family "Christmas" pictures on
October 25th, 2009. My lovely friend, Amber, did an AMAZING job. I just love her. Keep an eye out for the 09 Latham Fam Xmas Card! :)

Jed+Nemo=B.F.F.

Recently I borrowed the movie "Finding Nemo" from my sister thinking that maybe by some miracle my son would sit still for more than five minutes and enjoy a good laugh or two. So I put the movie in and he doesn't take his eyes off of the movie for anything. I try standing in front of him calling his name, waving some cookies in front of him, nothing. He is completely mesmerized with this orange and white creature. I love Nemo. He has saved my life. :)

Model Man Jedidiah

So I am lucky enough to have a sweet photographer as a good friend of mine! She loves to mess around and take pictures of my beautiful little offspring. These are some pics she took a couple months ago. Keep in mind he would not keep still for anything! Teddy grahams only worked for like two shots.






Well, that is my handsome little guy. I'd say he has potential and my friend Amber is amazing for being able to capture any good pictures with Mr. Un-cooperative! :) Her biz is called Amber Abbott Photography by the way. She'll hook ya up! :)
