Wednesday Fun

I think I've mentioned before that Nathan is really loving coloring.  He LOVES to color - all the time, whenever he can!  So he begged to color after breakfast (even instead of watching news!) in the short few minutes between breakfast and brushing teeth.

Here's a fuzzy family pic.  
[One would think that Nathan was scared of the camera with as tight as he's holding Barry!]

Two for Tuesday

Nathan had his 3 year old check-up on Monday afternoon.  He really didn't want to go and talked a lot about "no like doctor", but he didn't really have a choice.

He did awesome the whole appointment until the very last thing when the doctor put a tongue depressor in his mouth to look around.  Then he fell apart and cried and cried.

He has grown over 2 inches since August and is at 40.2 inches (95th percentile) and was up three pounds to 35 since August (75th percentile).  What a big boy we have!

At the playground

It was so beautiful on Saturday that we also went to a playground we've never been to.  Although it was packed with people, Nathan had a great time.



He fell almost immediately as he was walking across one of the bridges and hit his head.  In fact, this morning (Monday), he was complaining that his head hurt.  Amazingly enough, despite the fall, he got up and played for about an hour - until we said it was time to go!

The Cows!

 While we were checking out the goats, we also got to see some... COWS!

This cow in the background was mooing and mooing and mooing.  It quite freaked Nathan out.
One more of the goats... :)

Visiting the Goats

We've been trying for several weeks to visit the goats and today was the day! :)
Nathan was very scared of getting close and it was a challenge to even get him to stand with Daddy for a picture.


 The babies were in the barn, so we were able to go and visit with them.

This was also as close as Nathan would get to the goats.  The mothers were a little rowdy so he was scared to be on the ground.

Two for Tuesday

Here I am 22 1/2 weeks in early October 2011 with Nathan:


Here I am 21 1/2 weeks in March 2013 with Zachary:


As I read over what I wrote for Nathan, it is very identical as for Zachary.  Zach is very busy and moves around frequently through the day.  In fact, he woke me this morning kicking and it was making quite the movement on my belly.  I'm hopeful that he'll cooperate and Nathan and Barry will be able to feel him soon.

Basketball Fun

With the lovely time change, when we got home, there was more than enough time to play outside.  Thanks to the Michigan Stevens, Nathan got to play basketball.
He's a pretty good shot! :)



You can't make it in every time...
