Mini Photoshoot

So I decided I needed to take some pictures of the little guy again. He is a little ham already and is an easy baby to coax into a smile. He thought the camera was pretty neat and he cooperated quite well this afternoon.














I really can't believe how big he is...not quite 2 months and easily filling out the 3-6 month clothing already. I am also blessed at what an easy baby he has been so far, such a change compared to the older 2. J with his lactose stuff and M with pyloric stenosis...many sleepless night at this point with both of them. I really couldn't imagine going through M's situation again, especially with J gone right now.

































J insisted on getting his picture taken as well...what a ham.

First Bath...

So for N's first bath (which was several weeks ago, so don't think I don't bath my children) he slept through the whole thing. This was him just chilling and enjoying being asleep.














He did wake up when I was drying him off, but didn't make a sound and enjoyed the experience, which really surprised me. The other boys hated their first baths and really didn't like them until they were much older and were able to sit up and take baths in the big tub.














I love this one...so serious and deep in thought.

Flashback to Pre-Christmas

The Boys enjoyed going to the holiday party for Daddy's work and seeing Santa and the big airplanes. We are so lucky to have events like these for the boys to go to and have the chance to see what J does when he is gone on his trips.

I don't know what lil' J is demonstrating for Santa, but at least he isn't afraid of the Jolly guy.















M was asking for a F22 for Christmas...a real one at that. He ended up getting an F22 ornament instead and a pack of matchbox airplanes instead.














J as the co-pilot inside daddy's airplane. This is the first time J will remember being in daddy's plane.















M as the Aircraft Commander. You know he had to be the one in charge!














J chilling as a passenger.

Smiles and giggles...well sorta

We are bummed about the Vikings losing to the Eagles...but we enjoyed the season and the boys liked the quality time they got with daddy, whether it be at home or up at the O club. We still watched with daddy, just a little differently with him this last time and still had a blast eating popcorn and cheering on our Vikings.





























So little N is growing fast and stays awake a lot more, but in a good way. He is alert during the day and likes the interaction that lil' J & M give him during the day. Friday night I think I even made him laugh...that airy sort of laugh...but it also stunned him a little and he starred wide eyed wondering if that noise came out of his little body. He has also started making other noises out of his mouth that aren't crying or grunts and more like happy baby babble.














He is also a good sleeper at night and he sleeps around 6 hours a night in one big stretch...usually from 9-3am and that is very appreciated by me since I am virtually a single parent at the moment. Now if I can remember to go to bed when he does I would be even more rested.
