Preschool Summer Party

We had a blast swimming and eating with all their preschool friends at their end of summer party. Next week is preschool graduation for Sis. Wow!

1 Month

Well, I'm just 2 weeks late on this 1 moth post...that's how things go these days. The first month has gone very smoothly. He had been a fairly calm baby and a pretty good sleeper. He eats every 2-3 hours during the day. Then consistently goes 4-5 hours at night. He never has crying fits during the night. He eats and then goes straight back to sleep. Could I ask for anything better? Not sure how I ever survived my other children's sleep habits. Thank goodness, the best sleeping baby was saved for last.

All Smiles!

All of a sudden, one day he began to make eye contact and then later that afternoon he began smiling. He hasn't stopped smiling and cooing since. It seems so much more fun when babies can finally respond to r silly baby talk. Poor little guy is put on the spot all the time now for smiles. :) We can't get enough.

Sweetness Captured

Love how his sweet inocence can be captured in a picture. He was like a little wet rag as Uncle Mat posed him for pictures.
I can't believe these will be our last newborn pictures taken. He is and will always be our baby of the family. Have to find a way to keep him little as long as possible.
Thanks Blue Bamboo Creative....

Sisterly and Brotherly Love

May they always love each other as much as they do now...except for those days when they are at each other's throats. :)
Thanks Blue Bamboo Creative...

Where has the time gone...

Time is flying by so fast. We have been so busy that the last month has flown by. Here are a few snapshots from the past month.It has been a FUN month with lots of happenings. So bear with me, I couldn't decide on pics. So, I posted lots.
Spending fun time with our favorite cousin from the South :)
Happy Father's Day!
Visiting with Great Grandma Shirley. 4 generations!
Happy 4th!
Walking on trails at the Conservation park. The deer were soo close to us.
Zoo animal watching
Just in time..Sissy learned how to take her own shower. So our total # of baths given did not \change when the baby came home. Yay! The little guy couldn't help but stand outside her shower door and yell in at her. He was so interested in watching her take a shower. I think he would have loved to get in there and play if we would have let him.

First Week at Home...

Heading Home...
He sleeps sooo well in his little Rock N Play Sleeper. Wish I would have had this (as well as my glider) 3 kids ago. He sleeps until he is hungry, wakes to eat, and then goes back to sleep. Not one single "screaming all night long" event.
We had a great time getting our fill of snuggles the first week at home with baby brother.
He's so alert for being so little. He's loves to look around already.
