Name that boy

The boys are really starting to resemble each other. Especially since Nolan's eyes are getting more blue. Just for fun, who is baby #1 and who is baby #2?

Mondays

I love Mondays. I know most people dread them, but I love them. Mondays are our family day. Jake works a lot on Sunday because he is a youth minister. Sometimes those days can be really long and I have to refill my patience lots of times by the time I get the boys ready for church, take them, do lunch, naps, supper, and bedtime and look forward to about 9 to have Jake come home and we can connect with each other about our days. I see him throughout the day at church and at our youth program but we always connect with the students and other people then! Yesterday was a great Monday. We got some family pictures taken in the beautiful weather and then Jake took me out for dinner. After I have a baby he always does something sweet as a way of thanking me. With Cam I got some amazing flowers and this time we went to Olive Garden. We had our date last night by ourselves and it was so nice to just be together and eat. I ate way too much and I loved it!

Here are a few pictures from our family day yesterday! Enjoy

1 month

The weeks are flying by! Nolan is a month old and Cam will be turning three in just 2 months. Cameron is planning a Thomas birthday party and is trying to get Nolan to play with something new every day. Today, I think he tried to get Nolan to blow a train whistle. Nolan is getting to be a little chunk!

Sorry, the words are a little off, I can't seem to get it right!

It's been a great week. The boys are feeling better and Cameron is loving on Nolan more and more. He asked me last night if I could make Nolan talk. I told him he would have to help me teach him! He likes his one-on-one time, but he also loves having the company!


















Jake and I finally got a van this weekend and we absolutely love it. It is so nice with having a couple of kids. We got to spend some time with Hunter and Hayden while we were making van arrangments and the two big brothers took some time to pose with their little brothers!








Cameron wanted to be Thomas for Halloween, again. So, he was and he loved it! Hunter was Thomas, too and Hayden was Sir Topham Hat!

Uncle Brian stopped over for a visit last week and it was great to see him. Cam loved playing with him and showing him some of his library books and trains.

Nolan is filling out even more and his eyes seem to be looking more blue. We will have to see if they darken up anymore!

I can't believe it is the end of October already. Time is flying by. Here are a few pictures from the past couple of weeks!

I have a few min and some good internet connection so I thought I would put up some more pictures! Nolan is awesome and is a really good baby. He is filling out quickly and loves to eat. Cameron is excited about Nolan, most of the time, and loves to rub his hair and cheek. It has been an adjustment for him to share mom and dad but he is doing better than I thought he would do. He always asks for baby Nolan to sleep in his crib at night in their room and I have to tell him that when he is a little older he will. Enjoy the pictures!

He's here!
