8 Weeks

Today is also one month until Evan's 4th birthday!  How is that even possible?  :)
We put up our tree, my husband likes to get a head start on these things.  It was fun, Evan remembers last Christmas and is so excited about it.   I dont think Seth remembers last year but Evan explained to him that they get presents and he definitely gets that! 

Evan was my little helper!

The almost finished product (I still have to put all the ornaments on).  The boys got their chairs and sat in front of the tree all night.

New Nephew

Silas was born Friday, 9lbs 6oz!  Congratulations, Ben, Missy, Judah, Gianna and Tiernan!  I'm sad I have to wait to meet him until summer. :( 

This weekend I thought I would try to teach Seth to pray.  This is how it went:
Me: "Seth repeat after me, Dear God."
Seth: "Ok, Dear dog."
Me: "What?!"
Seth: "What?"
Me: "No, say God again."
Seth: "Dog."
Me: "No say, God."
Seth: "Dog."
Me: "Hahahahahahahahaha!" Fall off the bed laughing. 
Seth: Confused but giggling. 

Week 7

[
At his 1 month appointment on Monday he weighed in at 11 lbs 4oz and 22 inches long.  That put him in the 85th percentile for weight and 75th in height which is huge for our family!  I guess constantly eating pays off! :) 

Bonding

[


Evan and Seth really love to hold and snuggle with Kane, it amazes me.  I always thought that little girls were fascinated by babies not boys.  Its so funny whenever Kane starts to cry Evan tries to calm him down by saying, "Dont worry baby Kane its me, Evan."  He thinks Kane is afraid of something and if he reassure Kane its just him then he'll stop crying.  When Kane doesnt stop crying then Evan is convinced that Kane doesnt like him!  I've tried explaining to Evan that babies just cry but he still takes it personal, poor kid. :) 
This week has been filled with stuff every night and finally tonight we have nothing going on.  So were going to go wander around Target, one of our favorite pastimes (you cant be too pick with three kids) I search for sales while the boys play in the toy aisles.  Then we'll come home and watch a movie, I cant wait!

Look at that chubby thumb!  I love it!

They're such good helpers!

6 Weeks and Parade

Aunt Tracy came to visit today! 

In the morning we went to the Veteran's Day parade.  Cars, trucks and bikes, it doesnt get any better for these three boys!  

I cant believe he slept through it all!

Wow!

He's proud to be an American. 

First Smile

 
Kane smiled for the first time last Thursday but I havent been able to capture it until today.  Isnt he adorable!

For the last week Kane and I have had thrush.  It doesnt bother him too much but its causing me a lot of pain!  Hopefully this passes soon so I wont dread his feedings anymore.  The medication stains his mouth purple for a couple hours which I think is hilarious!

He likes tummy time for about five seconds, then he starts screaming. 

Meet Tom the Turkey!  Evan loves him!  Seth is terrified, he cries every night when we blow Tom up. 

The wind knocked Tom over, thankfully Evan was there to rescue him! :)
