Noah's Growin'!

We survived the first two months! Two more and hopefully some of us will start getting a better night's sleep . . . hopefully . . .

2 weeks-ish
Noah is a good boy and his brother and sister love him! He has reflux (a.k.a. GERD) but we're three for three with that now, so at least I know the symptoms, know the meds, and know how to treat it. So far we know that he does not care for pepperoni or chocolate. I can live without pepperoni, but I am starting to miss chocolate. Oh well, he's worth it!

Oh yeah! And please notice that even though we have had three reflux babies in a row, we have not had three red-headed babies in a row! He's blondish to light brown ("baige" to you Tuellers). Don't get me wrong, I love my beautiful red-head kids, but I am so excited to not be left out in family pictures anymore! Maybe I'll get some credit for his looks this time around!



2 weeks-ish


I wish I could still get him to take a binki. *sigh*



After my parents where here for the first week, Grammie Sherri came to help out for a week. We visited the Columbia River Temple here in the Tri-Cities. We're so glad that everywhere we've lived there has always been a temple close by.


Isn't it nice having Grandma around?


The kids survived the summer with water fun. We went through two pools this summer, popped them both.



Recently, Tanner informed us that, "I a MAN-BOY!" And that he is! You can almost see the testosterone pulsing through his veins!


And our big girl Hailey started kindergarden! There weren't any tears from her or me, we were both ready! (There are some days that I feel ready for all day school!) She just loves doing grown-up things like riding the bus and eating lunch at school once a week. I think school will be a good fit for Hailey!


Hailey's first day of kindergarden.


And Noah just keeps getting bigger!


6 weeks old




He is now 2 months old and it is so satisfying to see him smile! We can hardly wait to see his personality emerge.

(notice the blond? Oh yeah!)
