Nathanael

Here are some recent pics of Nathanael.  He is 7 weeks old today and I was actually able to get some pictures of him smiling for the camera :-)  He is so adorable!  And just look how that boy is growing, I mean he looks like a baby buda with all that baby fat!

 

Oh, also, today was his first day in cloth diapers!!  I was so excited about his first day in cloth that I had to snap some shots of him in his cute little blue BumGenius diapers.

 

Enjoy :-)

Monkey on My Back

Anyone with a little monkey knows just how special it is to have one attack you by jumping on your back and squeezing you so hard around the neck you can hardly breath.  Here is a sweet picture of me and my oldest monkey, Samuel.  He also happens to be the wildest :-)  At least he doesn't bite! 

Some Cute Pics

Here is another really good family photo that a friend of ours named Courtney took for us.  Thanks Courtney, we love it!! :-) And a very cute picture of Levi with his little buddy Jonathan.  Jonathan is Courtney and Chad's little man; isn't he adorable!

 

Also, I just had to post this completely adorable picture of Samuel and Iva.  I just love it! Can't you just feel the love :-)

A Sweet Picture and an Update

Don't you just love this picture of Nathanael with his daddy!  I just love how Nathanael is looking right at him :-) . . .

 

. . . Okay, so I am a little behind on posting about Nathanael's 1 month check-up.  He had his check-up this past Monday and the Dr. said he is doing great :-)  At birth he weighed 7 lbs., 1 oz. and was 21" tall.  Now (drum roll please) he is weighing in at 11 lbs., 1 oz. and is 22" tall!!!  I guess I don't have to worry if he is eating enough; apparently he is doing just fine :-)  He is really filling out and his little chubby cheeks are absolutely adorable!!!

The Fantastic 4

Well, here it is. We finally have a picture of the Fantastic 4 all together! Samuel (5), Iva (3), Levi (2) and Nathanael (4 weeks)

Too Sweet

I just had to post this precious picture. This is where I found Iva today, asleep with Samuel in his bed. She had been asleep in her own bed and woke up from her nap a little early. She was the only one awake so I let her play quietly while I was fooling around on the computer. After a while, she got up and left the room and figured she decided to resume her nap. I was partly right. I got up from the computer and headed toward her room expecting to find her asleep in her bed, but once I reached her room I realized that she wasn't in her bed at all. So, I proceeded on to Samuel's room only to find a very precious site, both Samuel and Iva napping together. As a side note, I also found them this way the other night when I had been up feeding Nathanael. They are such good buddies, even in dreamland :-)

Nathanael is 4 Weeks Old Today

Nathanael is 4 weeks old today and just keeps getting more and more adorable, don't you think :-) He is scheduled for his 1 month check-up at the dr's office on Monday. I can hardly wait to see how much he has grown. I can tell that his little cheeks have been filling out lately! Happy 4 weeks our Littlest Little Man, you are such a blessing to our family and we love you so very much!!
