Gideon 6 weeks old

Gideon's baby acne is finally clearing up!!! I'm so happy. Last Sunday, a woman at church asked what was wrong with his face- isn't that sad!

Now, we are just waiting for that first smile. It's so fun when they start smiling at you. Not yet, but I did capture a couple of good shots of our 6 week old babe today:





The beautiful quilt was made for him by Rob's Aunt Bee. She's so sweet and the quilt is really lovely.

Bright future

A friend at church remarked to me the other day that Jasper makes him think of Art Garfunkel. So, does he?

Boys Night In

Sara went out for a "Girls Night Out" that included some celebrations for new babies arrived and yet to arrive (we're pulling for you, KHD!).

So I had the opportunity to host a Boyz Night In - Jasper did the dishes and washed himself for bedtime so Gid and I could take a nap. Good times were had by all:

Sara was hoping that I would get a taste of the state of hopelessness she often enters when both kids are crying, but - magically - they were perfect angels for me. We all read books before Jasper's bedtime and Gid alternated between sleeping and calmly alert. To keep my ego in check, Gid now will rarely fall asleep for me, opting instead for Mama's bosom.
