James Sucking His Thumb



Our 2 1/2 month old James has decided that he doesn't really care for the pacifier (unless he is really tired) and has opted for his thumb recently. He's doing great with normally only one feeding in the middle of the night. He's not chunky, but is bigger than our other boys were at this age. At his 2 month check up he was 24 inches long and 12 lbs (he was 21.5 inches and 7 lbs 7 oz at birth) so he's growing well. His temperament is a lot like the other boys in that he has fun play times with cooing and smiling (he's almost laughing) but then lets you know when he's hungry and fights going to sleep sometimes. He is more like David was as a baby in that he doesn't spit up hardly at all (Benjamin was a big spitter) and his facial expressions resemble David's as a baby. Overall, he's a wonderful baby and we are so glad he's a part of our family!!!

Fun Boys



We've had a fun, busy month of June. Jonathan went to Los Vegas for a week of auditing at a Milgard plant there. Ellie stayed with her parents for one night and the rest of the week with Carolyn. We had fun but are very glad to be together again. We're looking forward to a busy summer filled with seeing friends and enjoying God's beautiful creation.
David is very helpful in helping Mommy get things when she nursing James and helping to clean up toys. Benjamin likes to try to help too, and now that he is walking with almost no limp, he's getting more helpful.
