Oficially Fat!

The doctor had to cancel Marshall's two month appointment on Monday, so we went today. He is a big boy! His stats:

weight: 14 pounds 15.5 ounces (95th percentile-she could have just said, "fat")
length: 23 and a half inches (60th percentile)
head: can't remember the exact measurement, oops! (90th percentile)





Here he is, literally bathing in all his fat glory!!!

Happy Birthday Sam!

Today is our nephew, Sam's birthday. I can't believe he is already four! The time has flown. He is the most fun and I have so enjoyed my time with this special little boy. We are so blessed to live close enough that I can see him and spend time with him frequently.

One quick story about my special little buddy. Scott and I got to watch Sam and Jack on Friday so that Tom and Staci could go on a date. Scott was tucking in Jack and I was tucking in Sam. We had spent a good bit of time reading books, talking, laughing, changing into different pajamas, and really, just procastinating. I told Sam it was time to say prayers and then say goodnight. He said, "Heidi, I think we should pray over there (pointing across the room.)" I thought he was surely delaying bedtime further. I said, "No Sam, we are going to pray right here." His response, "Heidi, I only wanted to kneel." Who am I to tell him that he can't bow on his knees before the Heavenly Father? We both bowed and prayed together. I love this little boy!

Happy Birthday Big Boy!!!

Knock Knock

Marshall does this cute little knock when he is waking up and stretching. We have tried to get some good video of this. Watch his little hands and you will see him knock. knock, knocking. Too cute! You'll want to pause the music to hear "the grand finale!"

Just Some Fun Pics!

Enjoy!





Big smiles for Scott before he leaves for work. :)










Sorry this picture is sideways! This is a rare shot of Marshall enjoying his swing. I'm trying to convince him that it really is a good thing.








Love that face!

How much will he weigh?

Marshall goes to the doctor for his two month check-up on Monday. Any guesses as to what he will weigh? We think he is getting close to 14 pounds. He looks and feels pretty huge! We'll find out on Monday, let's hope he has grown in length also.

Soccer Star

Sam had his first soccer game on Thursday. We had so much fun cheering for our little buddy. He got a late start joining the team and he ran his little heart out. We were so proud of him! Can't wait for your next game Buddy. Go Sharks!!!
