3 Weeks Old

The weeks are flying by! I can't believe that in just one week, Nathan will be a month old already. It doesn't really seem possible. He seems so big to us because he's wearing clothes that Tyler didn't fit until he was 2-months-old. I guess it just goes to show that every child is different.

The boys and I had a pretty busy week this week. On Monday we went to a local park and fed bread to the ducks and geese, which is one of Tyler's favorite things to do. On Tuesday we went to the library for Rhyme Time. Nathan slept through the whole thing. It only lasts about 30 minutes, but since he was asleep, I got to help Tyler do the motions to the songs and poems. Tyler's favorite part about Rhyme Time is the end because the leader blows bubbles and then stamps all the kids' hands. This week Tyler got a stamp in the shape of a rabbit and he has been talking about it ever since.

On Thursday we met our friends Lindsay and Kaitlyn at the mall so that Tyler and Kaitlyn could play together. Even since Nate arrived, we've been able to keep up our weekly playdates with them, but they've been coming to our house. When I told Tyler we were going to the mall, he immediately said, "Kay-Kay!" (for Kaitlyn) and, "bus!" I think he'd missed playing on the bus at the mall with Kaitlyn. Once again, Nathan slept through the entire outing. I promise he doesn't sleep all the time...it's just when other people are around. =)

Here are a few photos of the boys from this week. Between the two of them, they definitely keep us busy, but we're having lots of fun as a family of four.

PJ just can't resist a soft blanket...this is part of the reason why I get to do so much laundry.
