Tristan's Day At Bible School

This morning Mia woke Tristan and I up at 7am! She wasn't hungry, she just wanted us to pay attention to us and play! Once we woke up and brought her up with us, she was all smiles and coos! Tristan and I love it! I guess if we have to wake up early, then this was a nice way to wake up! Of course now that I finally have Tristan sleeping in, Mia is waking up early.... 

Today Tristan had another Saturday at Vacation Bible School. When I picked him up I learned he had a great time! They went to Jubilee Farms. I was told Tristan and Jaycie (she goes to his school, too) went on the hayride together holding hands and walked around together petting the puppies and other animals. He rode on the ponies, too. I love that he is enjoying time at church. He sang the new song he learned....."I am a CH, I am a CH, I am a C-H-R-I-T-A-N (C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N)....it is so fun to hear him sing songs from church and his excitement about it!

Mia's 8 week Appointment

Yesterday Mia had her 8 week appointment. This sweet little baby is now 13 lbs and 22"! We both got a great report from the doctor. Mia is a very healthy baby! She has the most perfect rolls and cheeks! Hmmm....I just love to hug on her. It amazes me everytime I look at her! During the office visit, she was smiling, cooing and mimicing the vowel sound "O." Dr. Freeman said she was such a sweet calm baby! I do agree. If i wasn't breastfeeding her, she would sleep through the night!

Tristan is still loving on her. Every night he has to give her a kiss goodnight! He want to hold her, but I think she is a bit too heavy for him! I love watching them both. There is nothing better than kissing my babies goodnight and tucking them in. I look at them and just melt. Before becoming a parent I didn't know you could love someone this much! God has blessed us beyond words with these two sweet children. I feel like my family is complete!
