Happy 3 months Thomas!!

Daddy's little boy
This little guy (well maybe not so little) is growing up EVERYDAY! At his two month appointment, he weighed a whopping 13 lbs. and 24 inches long. Weight= 80%tile Height= 85%tile. I wonder what he weighs now. :)
I just love giving him kisses all over all the time on his chubby thighs, cheeks, and little piggies. He JUST started sleeping through the night two weeks ago. This last week he started waking up again once in the night again, but only a couple times. Let's hope he stays with this. Emma started sleeping through the night around 2 1/2 months.
I'll be honest with my babies, it's those first two months that are pretty rough, adjusting to a newborn again, but it's getting better now. Lots better.
Thomas was blessed by Derek on the 4th of July. He was given such a beautiful blessing by his Daddy. His cousin Finn was also blessed in our ward which made it even that much more special. More pictures of that day will come. We were so grateful to have a lot of family here to support us.And today Thomas hit a BIG MILESTONE, he started laughing. I will be putting video of it up later.
So enjoy a few pictures of our growing boy and family.Thomas and cousin Finn being held by Oma.

more coming later...

they grow and grow....

I don't know why blogger is making this picture vertical, but I wanted to share it. While Emma was napping one afternoon, Thomas and I were hanging out, playing and taking pics of ourselves.

Sweet Thomas boy is 11 weeks already. He is about 13 lbs. and can nearly put his whole fist in his mouth..amazing. He smiles a lot...he's almost laughing. He loves his bath time and just started sleeping through the night on Monday...let's hope he continues. He's my little chubby buddy :)

Look at those blue eyes, we may have another blue eyed child :)

This sweet girl is growing EVERY DAY!! She has gotten so tall and talks, talks, and talks. She loves talking about getting married in the temple, dancing, singing her own songs, wearing her princess dresses, wearing mommy's church shoes (she calls them glass slippers), finds whatever treasures she can and puts them in her pockets (rocks, ribbons, coins, etc...), singing her abc's, and 'twinkle twinkle little star', she loves to show us her dance moves; she'll say, "Look Mommy, I'm dancing", and this girl LOVES her books. I always find her in her room reading from her books as well as listening to her books on tape.
She's always concerned about others. She's always ask me, "Mom, you happy?" Or if I'm having a rougher day, she'll ask "Mommy, you mean?" hahahha. I always tell her I try not to be. Then she'll say, "Oh ok, you not mean. You nice?" I say "I try to be." Then she'll say, "Daddy's nice too." She also gets concerned if Derek or I accidentally hit something and say "ouch"..she gets so concerned and wants to kiss it better :)


Not to mention she LOVES her brother Thomas. She's such a great big sister. She's always concerned about him when he's crying. Or if she wakes from a nap, she'll ask, "where's Thomas?" She laughs at him when he makes his funny faces, gurgling sounds or his cute smiles.

Emma got her first real hair cut yesterday by our friend Liz. She did such a good job! I was so nervous for her to get it done but am SO glad she did. Emma did so well sitting there watching in the mirror. She was excited to get her hair cut, she talked about it all that morning.
Turned out darling. I love it. My little girl is growing up so fast!
