i just can't help myself...i have to post these pictures of the four boys/man in my life. i am a blessed woman.

adam is getting so big. he's smiling and cooing and is awake for a good part of the day now. his sleeping at night is still amazing - he sleeps from 10:00 until at least 4:00, and sometimes until 6 or 7. Could a mama ask for anything more from a two month old? at his well-child visit this morning, he weighed in at 10#3oz - up a whole pound from 2 weeks ago! He's 21 1/5 inches long.



rowan loves to draw on his new easel that he got for his birthday. but in this case, he drew a rain cloud - all by himself - on his little etch-a-sketch thingy. he's brilliant. he's so helpful with the baby - always fetching me diapers or his pacifier or a blanket. he loves to kiss his baby adam. he's also proving to be a great teacher to sawyer. he teaches his pronunciations of words and always says, "good try, sawyer" if he doesn't get it quite right. :) (note the big boy underwear! three weeks of a fully-potty trained boy! mostly all of his own doing. there really is something to the "they'll let you know when they're ready" philosophy!)



sawyer is going to be one of those kids that you see wearing his halloween costume all year long. to the grocery store or the park. he's our free-spirit. he's still getting used to the baby in the house, but he's looking up to his big brother more and more on a daily basis. he's talking so much by putting 2- and 3-word sentences together.


and babe, i know you told me not to put this picture on our blog, but look how adorable you are wearing adam! based on what I've heard, a baby-wearing daddy is pretty rare these days...and your boys are the lucky ones benefitting from having a daddy who'll do anything for them. including wearing them, burping them, changing many diapers, building them a kick-butt jungle gym, giving them tractor rides...you're one awesome professional daddy! :)
