Baby J 5 weeks

J is growing fast. He is starting to focus a little more and has even been smiling! It is too precious for words! He is really looking like N except that his eyes are a little bigger. He is a very good baby and very content. He really only fusses when he is hungry. He does like to be held a lot, but what baby doesn't! The boys are great with him and love him to pieces!

Big Brother M

Being a big brother is an exhausting job!:

1 month old

My how time flies! I cannot believe that J is already one month old. He is a darling baby although already very spoiled! He wants to be held a lot, but that is mostly his Mommy's fault because I love to hold him! His brothers are crazy about him and the only trouble we have had is them waking him up by wanting to talk to him and kiss him. He is chunking up a lot and I would not be surprised if he is close to 10 pounds already.

3 weeks old!

Baby J is growing like a weed and getting to be a chunky monkey! He is getting on a little bit better of a schedule and waking up every 3-4 hours (most of the time!) He has been on a walk and likes the stroller and likes to ride in the car also. He is very alert and holds his head up really well. He seems to be more awake in the mornings and sleep in the afternoons.

Noah's Ark Parade

Friday, N had his Noah's Ark Parade at school. He really wanted to be a lion this year and the date kind of snuck up on me, so last minute we created this costume and I think it turned out really cute. They learned a song about Noah and went to several classrooms and the office to perform their song with the motions. When I asked N whose costume was the best, he proudly answered, "MINE!" I asked him besides his whose was good? He said, "Just mine, Mommy!" I am so thankful he had so much fun! He seems to have a great class this year and is making some friends with some of the little boys. I think this year is going to be so good for his maturity and confidence. I can already see a difference!

M's first day of school

M started MMO this week and loves it! He is going to a new school this year because the school from last year did not have a MMO program that ran the same days as N's preschool and I did not want the boys to be gone on different days. He has a small class of 6 kids and a really great teacher. He went right in and started playing. He is very excited when I pick him up and tells me all about his day. The cutest thing is how much the boys miss each other. N is SO excited to see M and the feeling is mutual. I am so happy at how well they get along. They are genuinely best friends and love each other so much. Granted, they are normal and fuss, but they are buddies at heart!

Of course, my strong willed child would not let me take a picture of him for his first day of school. The teacher kept trying to distract him so that I could get some pictures, but M was not falling for that old trick. He looked at me and said, "Go way Mom. No take my pitcher!" ... The little booger!

2 weeks old

Here are some new pics of J. He is a really sweet baby! Already spoiled and wants to be held a lot, but loves his swing too. He really does not fuss much... The boys are crazy about him and he is truly a blessing to our family!

Little Hands

J always has his hands up by his face in little fists. It is really sweet and here are a few pictures I captured of him sleeping.
