One {Month}


Don't like that we swaddle you 

Car puts you to sleep...most of the time

Always so wide-eyed

Go 3-5 hour stretches at night

2 hours during the day

0-3 and 3 month clothes fit but you swim in them a bit

Full of creases but no rolls

Big feet and loooong toes.

Respond to brothers' crying

Prefer to be held and love the wrap

Balding in the front

Eyes getting lighter blue

So alert

Fussy before bed

Big burps

Love Papa's football hold

8 lbs 11 oz (40th)


Full of sweetness!

So, We're Having...

A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!

So I got this silly idea to have a cake party for baby #3. Had to show her some loving since I **thought** she'd be a boy and may feel like, well, the third boy. Figured it'd be a fun way for us to find out this time. 

So my girlfriend, Cami, make two cakes. One of each color. And brought them to our "party" {which was basically our community group}. I invited everyone to wear a blue or red shirt to "vote" for their gender. When we arrived, I passed over the envelope from the technician which contained gender pics and a filled out card...

She sneaked to the bathroom, found out, and then placed the right cake in front of us to cut open with everyone. 
{they were all so excited to find out too! can't you tell?!}

And then we cut the cake...
And I totally cried. I'm blaming it all on the extra hormones! So much shock, joy, surprise, and excitement to contain.

This had to be one of my favorite moments and favorite ways to find out. It just all turned out so perfect. More than I imagined. A night I'll always remember with such delight.

A special thanks to Cami who did an amazing job on making two cakes for us to enjoy, to Elizabeth for hosting our little shindig {and making sure we didn't wait until our normal Saturday night gathering time}. And all our family and friends who were there in spirit {via social media/texts}. :) Since my parents are roughing it as they travel through Spain, they also got the joy of email notification! I'm pretty sure it was an early 6:30am when they responded.

Here's to our growing family of FIVE!!!
