To Make You Smile

Here are some pictures that made me smile. Hope they make you smile too! I can't believe how much more Andrew is looking like a baby and less like a newborn. 

My Boys

While I went out to mow, I asked James to watch Andrew. (I know I am weird but I really enjoy mowing, especially since we got the new mower!) When I walked back in this is what I found.

He claims Andrew wanted to be held, but I have a suspicion that Daddy "needed" to hold him. :-)

Lately, we have been trying to go on walks in the evening. This way I get out of the house.  I deal with Baxter (which is a great arm workout!) and James pushes the stroller. Andrew prefers Daddy since he pays much more attention to the road and bumps.

New Discovery

Andrew has discovered his tongue! :-)

Trip to Houston

Last Friday James, Andrew and I made the journey into Houston for a family friend's wedding. We decided since Andrew would be a month, we would try to make it. Needless to say, Gigi was all about showing this little guy off. It was quite an evening! Andrew did great and we only had to stop once to feed him, but the weather was wild with a cold front blowing though and it was pouring!

My brother, Mike, met Andrew for the first time.  Aunt Shelly and Uncle Wes bought him a adorable tie. I was so glad he had an occasion to wear it too!!!

On Saturday morning, we headed to Granny and Papaw's. Andrew had more family to meet!

Four Generations

He LOVED Granny rocking and feeding him!

Then we headed back to my mom's for dinner. My brother holding him.

Uncle Tanner holding him. Andrew had his arm up just in case he needed to catch himself  :-)

 

We had a great time seeing family, but it is definitely more challenging making the drive!

Whale... I am three weeks

Andrew was three weeks today! On Wednesday he weighted 8 pounds 10 ounces. We went to the doctor and he was given a prescription for his reflex. It has helped; he has stopped making the gagging sounds. :-)

This week Hannah Kate held Andrew for the first time!

 And Andrew met his best buddy, Coleman. Coleman is the son of our friends, The Leblancs. Coleman was born a week earlier than Andrew. The boys were supposed to be a month apart but Coleman came a week late and Andrew a week early. :-)

Here are a few more shots to make you smile.
