Happy Baby
The weather actually felt like fall this morning! We took a nice, long walk around the trails. I feed him and thought he would fall asleep in the stroller since we were gone an hour but he loved being outside and was alert but quiet the whole time. So I figured he would definitely be exhausted when we got home but here's what he looked like...

Beau is 7 weeks old
Beau is staying up for longer amounts of time so we're getting to see more of his personality. He loves his big sister and moves his eyes and head to find her. The first thing Emilia does when she comes home from school is find Beau and say hi and give him kisses. He's been smiling for a couple of weeks but I don't have a good picture of that so here are some blurry ones.
Beau looks ready for Halloween here with the Gentian Violet. It cleared up the thrush but he sported this look for 4 days!
And does this bring back memories of Mao sleeping with Emilia? She tends to still sleep with Emilia at night but I find her with Beau during some of his naps... especially in his crib upstairs.
Self portrait of Emilia...
Tiffany brought by a present from Beau from her and Daria. Thank y'all so much for the cute balloons and 2 packages of diapers. Aren't the balloons awesome? If you need any arrangements, Tiffany makes these for baby showers, birthdays, weddings, etc. A Cherished Moment

Emilia being funny
Here's a picture of Emilia posing at Chuy's while waiting for a table during the Green Chili Fest. We caught up with Evan, Dina, Daryl and little Jackson.
Emilia surprised me by being a walrus by using 2 clips off the refrigerator. A couple of days later she used 1 clip on her nose and said she was an elephant. Too bad I didn't get a picture of that!

Beau is 1 month old!
I can't believe Beau is 1 month old today. It seems like he's been here so much longer and not that long at all. He went 5 hours and 4 hours between eating last night so we're getting closer to the magic 6 hours of sleep straight for us!
So here are some new pictures. Mao and Scout even posed for a few shots and Max wanted in the ones with Beau and Emilia before church. Emilia is holding Beau's bottle while we're trying to get ready last Sunday.
Beau has very expressive hands and feet. He also likes to play with the rattle on his floor mat.

New pictures
I haven't been very good at taking pictures lately. This was apparent when I came to download pictures and I only had 31!
So Emilia had her 1st day of Pre-K where she wears a uniform Monday - Thursday now. She is very excited about this and it's easier to have her pick out her clothes now since it's going to be some combination of skirt, shirt, jumper, shorts, or dress. Friday is a different story! I need to take a picture out of what she's wearing today. Patterned leggings, blue jean skirt, and hot pink t-shirt with black lace. It's a little old school Madonna. She's grown so much this summer that we went to the mall last Friday and bought her some new clothes and shoes. She's gone from a shoe size 11 in April to a 13 now. Crazy!! And we had to buy an outfit just like they had on the mannequin since that's how it's suppossed to be worn so she now has a long sleeved white shirt, purple skirt, and pink leggings. Thanks Children's Place! And she wore this for Moppy's birthday on Saturday even though it's 100 degrees outside.
Beau is growing too. He's up to 9 lbs 4 oz from his low weight of 7 lbs 2 oz after he was born. So 2 pounds in 3 weeks. He's getting a little more alert and not completely sleeping his days away. He likes to be held sometimes when he's sleeping in case he wakes up and wants to know what's going on. He also makes noises like he's trying to get in on the conversations with us. He always tries to move his head to find Emilia if she's talking or singing... and she's always talking or singing.
(Holding hands with gloworm)
Beau took his 1st trip to College Station last Friday. Katherine was in town for her 10 year vet school reunion and Rebekah was in Texas visiting so we got together to catch up. It's hard to believe we've been out of school so long and haven't seen each other but then it feels like we haven't changed that much and can just catch up on where we are in life.
