Thomas 2 years, Sophia 3 months

Our two kids are getting bigger! Matthew is home, but it looks like Thomas is sick with something as he just woke up in the middle of the night vomiting. I thank my stars that Matthew was home! I guess we're pretty lucky because this is the first time in 2 years that he's been this sick! I think he must be a pretty tough cookie! Hopefully this is just a passing thing and he will be fine in the morning.

This is the way Sophia smiles when she sees us just after waking up, or right after her milk. Such a happy smile! She's also learning how to wave her fists around and make contact with things, and can suck her fist enthusiastically. She's also getting more "talkative," goo-ing and gaa-ing so charmingly! She's about 14 pounds now, and settling down into her routine: asleep at nine or ten at night, a sleepy feeding at about 5am, and then awake after 8am for another feeding. This is great because Thomas wakes up around 7am, so it gives us time for breakfast and other things.

Thomas "helps" by pushing all the buttons on the mobile. The CD player is to play the "Happiest Baby on the Block" to help her fall asleep. I use it often at night and in the middle of the night, but I think now she's getting the hang of falling asleep right after a 5am feeding ... I don't have to use it every time.

Thomas asleep under his bed ... must have crawled there after his nap, then fell asleep again playing with his favorite train!


We had some friends over from Northwest, along with their children. It was great to see everyone, and to see how big everyone's getting! Good to see that the table is big enough for three! Thomas learned more about how to share his toys, and once needed a Thomas the Tank Engine movie to stabilize him a bit.
