1st Bath together

Last week I decided to bathe the boys together to try to save time. They loved it! Mamaw bought Trig a bath seat that's made to go in the bath tub that we have been using now. I will have to get a picture of them with the new seat. Yes, their water is pink. Thor got those color changing tablets in his stocking from Santa. It's supposed to be red but turns out to be pink. Oh, well!

Trig 4 months

Trig was 4 months old yesterday! Of course I can't believe it! He is so alert and active. He has discovered his feet and likes to look and reach for them. If I'm busy and he starts fussing, I can now send Thor to entertain him for a few minutes. I took him to the doctor on Tuesday for his check up and shots. Well he didn't get shots because the doctor said he has to be exactly 4 months or older to get his shots! Why didn't they tell me that when I made the appointment!? So now I have to take him back this week for shots. They weighed and measured him anyway. He weighed 13 lbs. 12 oz. and was 26 inches. That was 45th percentile for weight and 60th percentile for height. I was a little worried that he was too tiny but the doctor said he has been bouncing above and below the 50th percentile line which is fine, he's right in the middle. He's just a little bit smaller than what Thor was at this age. I knew he was a little small for his age before we went to the doctor because he can still wear some newborn and 0/3 months clothes! But we love our little man!

As Thor would say Trig is laying with "Monkey the George"!

Thor has been sick this weekend with runny nose, bad cough, and a fever so he does not look too thrilled in this pic.

Winter Beach

Last weekend we had the opportunity to spend a couple days at Panama City Beach, thanks to Curry's grandparents Jim and Shirley. Curry and I went down on Saturday night and went out to eat and had the night to ourselves. John and Chaille' came down Sunday evening and brought the boys. We went walking on the beach Monday morning and it was FREEZING! But Thor had fun playing in the sand and water and chasing the birds.

Santa brought Zac and Thor Tinker Toys to Nana's house. Chaille' brought them to the hotel so the boys would have something to play with. Curry and Thor created a play toy for Trig. As you can see, he loved it!

Cookies For Santa

Another tradition we taught Thor this year was to leave cookies and milk for Santa. Him and Zac decorated some ginger bread men cookies with Cayla that we put out with some chocolate chip cookies. Thor was so excited and listened intently when I was telling him about leaving the cookies and Santa bringing presents. When he woke up Christmas morning and the cookies and milk were gone, he was so excited! His reaction was priceless! I got it all on video. I just love how he is growing and learning and watching his reactions to the things he discovers. I know these days won't last forever.

Gingerbread House

Now that Thor is getting older, I wanted to start teaching him some traditions. One I wanted to start was making a Ginger bread House on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, Curry had to work on Christmas Eve but before he left, him and Thor made a Ginger Bread House. They had a blast! I look forward to next year when Trig can help.

Christmas part one

On Sunday the 20th we had Christmas with Erik, Lisa, Kayleigh, and Brian. Thor and Kayleigh had fun playing together. It was nice having a girl around! Trig and Brian also had fun getting passed around. Brian is quite a bit heavier than trig so we deffinately got our work out holding him.

3 Months

Yes, 3 months have passed already. Trig was 3 months old yesterday. The pictures have blurred spots in them because he was constantly moving while I was taking pictures. He has become a wiggle worm! And yes he still has ALL of his hair, has not lost any of it. (knock on wood)
