Just a thought

So It's not that I didn't like Graham before, but I have found that he is much more likable now that he is not waking up 4 times a night (No exaggeration- that was up until last week he was doing that.) And he is not so grumpy in the evening. He's turned out to be a pretty good little baby. And of course the one time that he gets up in the middle of the night these days when I go in, he always has the biggest smiles for me.

It's been a while

So it's been a while since I've blogged. I just have been doing other things I guess. And I don't have much time because Nate is stinky, and he is losing it fast. So here are just a few random pics from the past month or so. It has finally gotten warm out here, and we finally made it over to our favorite park. This was Graham's first time out to the park. A good time was had by all. The first time that Nate got in the swing he was laughing like it was the funnest thing he had ever done.

Just a naked baby.
Jesse built us a new computer this past month. That is one reason it has been a while since my last post. I just downloaded Picassa today, so now I can put all of our new pictures on this comuter. Of couse, all of the old pictures are still on the old computer. :(
Lizzie has never heard that a watched pot never boils.
Nate gets more and more interested in Graham, and will even entertain him from time to time. He is pretty gentle with him too most of the time. This also means that from time to time he will sit with him so I can get a few pictures with them together.
And finally, here is a smiley picture of Graham. He has started to be more interested in playing with toys, which is a life saver for me. He also has started to eat some rice cereal. He seems to like it pretty well. I am hoping that it will help him sleep at night since he seems to be starving each of the 30 times that he wakes up between the hours of 11pm and 6am. Plus, I seem to be having milk supply issues, so until I can get that taken care of, this will help out in the evenings when he is getting mad that he is not getting as much milk as he wishes he was.

So that's what is going on out here. Pretty boring stuff. I can see our near future filled with daily trips to the park until it gets too hot, and by then Nate's birthday will have come, and we'll get him a little swimming pool to play in. (Sorry, I just wrote a family newsletter article, so I feel like I'm still in newsletter mode.)

Our Prophet

So today Nate got his very first Friend Magazine. It was time to renew our Ensign, so we decided to add the Friend to our magazine subscriptions. So we were flipping through it, and in it there is a full page picture of President Monson. Nate looked at it, and pointed and said, "Prophet." It reminded me of the time that we were looking at the church website one day, and he saw the picture of the Christus, and pointed and said "Jesus." Times like these just warm a mother's heart.
