On May 29, Miller went for his 9 month checkup. He weighs 23.5 pounds and is 30.25 inches long. Dr. Blake says he is still in the 90th percentile for weight and height. He also said that Miller's skin looks better, and that he is very healthy. We are blessed with not only his health, but also Miles' good health. I thank God every day for that!<br />

We spent his 7 month birthday in Naples, Florida with Mimi and Papa for spring break. (More on our beach trip in an upcoming post).<br />
<br />
He is about 22 pounds now. He would be more, if he would eat baby food. However, he doesn't really care for it.<br />

As I sit and reflect on the past three years with our Miles, I can't help but examine this Bible verse from Joshua 1:9 "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid, do not be discouraged for the Lord God will be with you wherever you go." It speaks to me in so many ways. I was terrified to bring Miles into the world 3 years ago. I didn't know how it would feel, or if I could be fit enough to be a mother. I knew I would love my son, but I had no idea what kind of love it would be. Now, his voice makes my heart melt. His little antics and quirks make me giggle with joy. Even though I have been a mom for the past 3 years, I still seek the Lord's guidance. Because I am still scared. Scared of what Miles will say or do. Scared of all of those little illnesses that are out there to make him sick. Scared of things other people will say or do to hurt my little bug. While I pray for strength, I pray for the Lord to give Miles the courage to push forward every day no matter what. This is because Miles is a lot like me in that he worries about every thing. He is a little scaredy cat, just as I was at his age. So I will give him this verse to say when he is scared, just as he was the other night....He was reading a book where he saw a burglar on the roof of a house. (It was a book about opposites. The page flips from one thing to the next. This particular page was night and day. On the night page, there was a burglar on the roof. When you flip it to day, the burglar goes away. Why they put a burglar in a children's book is beyond my comprehension, but they did so we must deal with it!) I thought of this verse and immediately ran downstairs to grab a cross I had on my jewelry box. I went back in his room and told him to take the cross. I told him that when he is scared to hold the cross and talk to Jesus because He is always with us. That night, Miles slept with the cross and has every night since then! I pray that he will keep it and seek HIM always!</div>

Saturday, February 28th was Miles' 3rd birthday. He celebrated all day long. But the day before his birthday he went for his 3 year old checkup. (We wanted to kill two birds with one stone by taking both boys for checkups at the same time.)<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dr. Blake said Miles is also a healthy boy. He weighed in at 35 lbs and stood at 38" tall. He is in the 75th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for height. Matt is very excited about the height thing! </div>

Some of this year's MILEStones:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>I am doing decent at going to the potty. I wear big boy pants (undies) at school and sometimes at home.</li>
<li>I am a picky eater. My favorites include: hot dogs, grilled cheese, macaroni and cheese, and pasta.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our sweet, precious, baby is not a baby anymore. He is 6 months old as of Monday, February 23rd. It is hard to believe how quickly time passes with the second child, but it is faster than time with Miles. I try to cherish every moment with both of my boys because they are only this little once. As I look at Miller's chubby baby hands, I can't help but know that they will be big boy hands, soon!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
Miller is growing. On February 27th, he went to Dr. Blake for his 6 month checkup. He said that Miller is very healthy. He weighed 21lbs and was 28" long. Dr. Blake was concerned about Miller's eczema, so, he told us to get some hydro cortisone cream. We are supposed to apply it to the bad spots once a day until it goes away. We have been doing that since Friday, and, Miller's skin looks miraculously better. He even feels like a baby again! Dr. Blake also put him on an antibiotic because Miller scratched his eczema so much that he broke the skin in some places. Miller is set to take his medicine twice a day for 10 days. He HATES it!</div>

A few weeks ago my grandparents, Meemaw and Papaw (Miles and Miller's great grandparents), kept the boys for a few hours while we went to a friend's wedding reception. When we returned from the party, we walked int to this sight: Miles playing and Miller fast asleep on a snoozing Papaw. So sweet to see my boys loving my grandparents as much as I do!</div>

Miles turned 3 about the same time Miller turned 6 months. This picture is typical of the boys. Miles not wanting to pay attention to the camera and picking his nose, while sweet, innocent Miller just wants to love on Miles and smile for the camera.</div>

As I sit here and reflect on the last five months of my life, I can't help but smile. Through all of the sleepless nights, worrisome moments, and overwhelming days, I can say I am a better person. Miller has not only brought so much joy to our lives, but he has also taught me some valuable lessons. One in particular is quality over quantity. I may not have all of the time in the world to be the best mom, teacher, wife, daughter, granddaughter, sister, and friend. However, the time I do get with the people I love and care about is not taken for granted. I cherish and relish in the small moments. Those days when a simple smile from Miller or a "I love you Mommy," from Miles make the days when I feel like I'm going to pull my hair out not as bad.<br />
<div>

With that said, our little guy is now 5 months old. He is growing by the minute, it seems. Every time I see him, I notice something different.<br />

Miller now weighs 20 lbs and is 25 inches tall. I was looking back at Miles' pictures and Miles weighed 18.5 lbs when he was 5 months old. We definitely have a ham on our hands!</div>

He went for his 4 month checkup right before Christmas. Dr. Blake said he is growing and looking healthy. He weighed 17.13 pounds and was around 26" long. He is now in the 75% for weight and height. I think he didn't measure very big b/c he got a bad cold around his 4 month birthday and didn't eat much. Dr. Blake didn't seem concerned about his eczema and told us to keep putting on lotions and giving minimal baths.<br />

The scab above his eye is his first battle wound. Matt and Miles were having a snowball fight with socks. Miller was near Matt and when Matt reared back to throw a sock at Miles, he accidentally scratched Miller with his fingernail. Miller didn't even cry. He did bleed a little, though. </div>

It is fun to celebrate together, and this year was no different.<br />
<br />
We spent Matt's birthday celebrating with family. I cooked him dinner (his favorite-spaghetti and sour cream pound cake). Miles helped him blow out the candles....<br />

Yes, you heard it right! Miles wants a BMW, hot water heater, and a Lexus for Christmas. He also mentioned a garage and a house. I'd love these things, too, Miles!! I hope Santa brings them! :)<br />
<br />
Hot water heater? Well, he is obsessed with Mimi and Papa's hot water heater. He used to be scared of it, but Mimi kept telling him it was his friend, in order to keep his apprehension at bay. Well, he is friends with Mr. Hot Water heater now. In fact, the other day, he was in Mimi's garage and said, "Hello Mr. Hot Water heater. My name is Miles. M-I-L-E-S. Nice to meet you."<br />
<br />
Every time we are over at Mimi and Papa's, he insists on going outside to see his new friend. He even talks Papa into coming inside to run the hot water, so that Mr. Hot water heater will make a noise.<br />
<br />
I don't think I can purchase a toy hot water heater. However, I think I have found an alternative plan. Stay tuned to see what Santa does about this request!!<br />
<br />
As for the Lexus and BMW, well, money doesn't grow on trees, but we will see what we can do.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13580787806609863144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944364533708577714.post-13774559312644333712014-12-17T06:34:00.000-08:002014-12-17T06:34:52.187-08:00Kina Kina's First Tennessee GameCarolina is the newest addition to our family. She is dating Matt's brother, Trey. Miles calls her Kina Kina and we adore her to pieces. She is the missing puzzle piece in our jigsaw puzzle.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
With that said....she is Brazilian. That means she is used to un-American football, aka soccer. Since the Cleek family is obsessed with football, especially Tennessee football, we had to take her to a Tennessee game. Matt, Trey, Carolina, and I traveled to Nashville to watch Tennessee take on the Vanderbilt Commodores the weekend of Thanksgiving.<br />

Even though it wasn't the best game our volunteers have ever played, it still was interesting for a few reasons.<br />
<br />
1. Carolina can whistle louder than anyone I think I've ever heard. She definitely fits in with the crowd.<br />
<br />
2. A drunk Vandy fan threw up on Matt during the 1st quarter of the game. Sadly, it was the only sweatshirt he had and he spent the rest of the game freezing. On the bright side, security arrested the guy!<br />

After the game, we headed out to Downtown Nashville for some fun and food. We ate at Dick's Last Resort, which is the place where the waiters are rude to you on purpose. When you eat there, the waiters make you hats with rude, crude, or funny sayings on them. This is what Matt's said:<br />

All in all, it was an amazing trip. Can't wait to take Kina Kina to her next Tennessee game, which will hopefully be at Neyland Stadium.<br />

A HUGE thanks to Hidee for coming and hanging out with the boys while we had fun in Nashville.<br />

Is it too late to apologize? Mommyhood and English teaching has taken over my life!! I'm not complaining, by any means, but those two things keep me busy. Did I mention that I am trying to train for a half marathon as well as spend time with my sweet husband and keep my house in order? Ok..enough with the excuses....<br />

Miles also got to go trick or treating in our neighborhood with Hidee and Daddy. Mommy, Meemaw and Miller stayed home to take care of passing out candy to the trick or treaters. </div>

He is growing up way to quickly. It seems to be going faster now that we have another baby around our house.<br />

He is doing well at USJ in Mrs. "Winda" Linda's class. We had parent teacher conference a few weeks ago and she gave us a great report. She says that Miles' vocabulary is excellent and that he is very sweet to his fellow classmates. Here's a little nursery rhyme he learned at school....<br />

<br />
As for potty training...it's not going so well. Any of you moms out there who have won the battle with the arch nemesis "potty" please please please give me advice. We are struggling. He does ok on the weekends when we are at home. However, when he goes to school that is a different story. He knows that he should use the bathroom in the potty but refuses to do so. I have even taken away bubble baths, Peppa Pig, and bribed him with treats from Toys R Us. I guess we will just have to "keep swimming" in the words of Dory from Finding Nemo.<br />
<br />
We love our Miles and are proud of the big brother he is becoming. He is an energetic little fella and I wouldn't trade him for anything in this world. He brings us so much joy!<br />

A week has passed since Miller's two month birthday, but I wanted to wait on his two month check up before updating. Sadly, he got his 2 month shots yesterday. I think they hurt me worse than they hurt him. I couldn't even stay in the room with him. Thank goodness for Matt!! He is a trooper.<br />

We aren't sure what exactly he had several weeks ago, but he missed two days of school because of a fever. He chilled on the floor all day! And for any of you moms out there with 2 and 3 year olds, you know they don't chill unless they feel awful.<br />

The day after his "sickness" he was back to normal.....thank goodness!</div>
<br />
Miles is much better now....so much so...that he was running to the truck a few Saturdays back trying to race Daddy so they could go get some donuts. And he face planted on the concrete! Busted his lip and skinned up his nose and forehead. He cried, but still had to go get his donuts with Daddy.<br />

During this time, Miller had a first, too. He smiled for the first time about two weeks ago. It is such an amazing feeling when your baby starts smiling at you. It truly makes you feel loved.<br />

I can't believe our little guy is a month old. He truly has blessed us beyond measure and we are completely head over heels in love with him. He is the perfect addition to our already amazing little family. He is our missing puzzle piece!<br />

Miller is growing like a weed....He is now 11 pounds and is just about 23" long.<br />
<br />
<br />
He eats like we've never fed him before, which is part of the reason why we had to stop breastfeeding. Breast milk just wouldn't fill him up enough. He is taking 3.5 to 4 ounces of formula every few hours. If we give him just 3 ounces, he is ready to eat again in an hour!! What can I say? We have big boys with robust appetites.<br />

Here are some of this month's milestones:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>I am sleeping pretty good through the night. I usually wake up once at 2 or 3 and not again until 6 or 7.</li>
<li>I get hiccups all the time. They make me so mad!</li>
<li>I am wearing size 1 diapers.</li>
<li>I am very alert.</li>
<li>I am a noisy little fellow-I make all kinds of noises from grunting, to pooting, to squeaking, to noisy breathing.</li>
<li>I eat very fast and sometimes I spit up because I can't wait to get it in my tummy.</li>
<li>I enjoy sucking on my paci occasionally.</li>
<li>I hate being swaddled and love to sleep when it's cooler in my house.</li>
<li>I am a snuggler.</li>
<li>I am wearing 3 month clothes.</li>
<li>I am trying to hold my head up, just like my big brother did when he was my age.</li>
<li>I enjoy when people talk to me.</li>
<li>I usually only cry when I'm hungry, lonely, or mad at my hiccups.</li>
<li>I am quite the comedian. I make funny faces all the time. </li>
</ul>

It is nice having a baby around the house again. I love his smell, his little cries, and the noises he makes when he sleeps. I also love seeing Miles help us take care of his little brother. He is extremely sweet to Miller. The other day he even put Miller's pacifier back in his mouth without me saying a word. On one hand, I am proud of the big brother he has become, but on the other hand, I am sad to see him growing up so fast.<br />
<br />
Despite the exhaustion and feeding issues we've had with Miller (Breast milk doesn't satisfy him enough, so we started supplementing with formula. Then, I got a really bad case of mastitis, so, we decided to pump and feed him formula. I hate it but I'm just not a milk maid), we are getting used to the new norm, quite well. Here are a few pictures from our second week at home:<br />

Yesterday, September 8th, all 4 of us went to see Dr. Blake for Miller's 2 week checkup. Miles wasn't too thrilled about being in the doctor's office.</div>

But he quickly realized that this visit wasn't for him. Dr. Blake said that Miller looks healthy and happy. He now weighs 9lbs and 12oz and is 22 1/2" long. That means he is in the 85th percentile for weight and the 97th for height. If I'm correct, I believe he is bigger than his big brother was at this point in his life. So, little brother might be bigger than his big brother in the long run.</div>

We didn't do very much while at Hidee and JoePa's which was a nice change in pace. Alvin, NeNe and Cica, Uncle Joe, and NanNan all came to WM for the weekend. It was great getting to see them and for them to meet Miller.</div>

We spent two days in the hospital, which was right up Matt's alley.....just kidding. He hates hospitals. We wouldn't have been there that long, but with my c-section we had to stay at least two days. Monday, August 25th, we went home with our sweet Miller. When we left the hospital he weighed 8lbs and 12 oz. For his homecoming, Miller wore a white gown with a cardinal on it (Go St. Louis Cards!!) and a hat with his initials.<div>
<br /><div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The car ride home wasn't as rough as I figured it would be and it was great to get out of that hospital room!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When we arrived home, Miles wasn't finished with school yet, so, we got to get everything inside and settled in with our new little guy.</div>

Hidee picked Miles up from school (I just have to mention how thankful I am for my mom. She was a lifesaver with Miles during the weekend of Miller's birth. Thanks for the help, Hidee!) As soon as Miles walked in the door, he said, "What are y'all doing here?" I guess he was used to having the house to himself for the two days prior. Despite his despair, he quickly warmed up to the idea of having us at home with a little brother. He pulled up his chair next to Miller's and said, "I want to watch Milner." So, he proceeded to touch Miller and give him hugs and kisses.</div>

That first week at home was rough. Trying to heal from abdominal surgery, breastfeeding, and just dealing with a newborn again was difficult. We made it through, though. A huge thank you to Mimi, who checked on us daily, brought us lunches and dinner, and picked up/hung out with Miles. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has helped us and supported us during this time.</div>
