Hi Nate

Nate came over the other day to meet Thatcher.  It was so nice to catch up! 
 I can't believe it had been so long.  We miss those Wednesday dinners!

6 MONTHS!!

Our baby turned 1/2 year old today. It's crazy to think that it's already been 6 months since we brought him home.  It's also crazy to think that he's only been smiling at us and making our lives more fun for 6 months.  In review, he went from this:




To this:


... and we've loved every minute of it.

Thatcher had his official stats taken at the pediatricians office today.  
He was 75% for everything.  He weighs 18 lbs 9 oz and is 26 3/4 inches tall.

"Don't you wish your son was hot like mine"

These pictures just make me laugh. (So does the post title).





Play Date Time!

Thanks Liz and John for making the trip down to visit.
It was so nice to see you guys, and we will play with Zachary and Leah anytime!
Next time I need to be a better picture taker.

Weekend Update with Thatcher

Life has been pretty calm around here lately.  
Here are some of the random pictures we have taken the last couple of weeks.

Hanging out with Dad watching TV is one of Thatcher's new favorite hobbies.

How do kids know, even at 5 1/2 months, how to turn on the charm before bedtime?  I am definitely a softy when it comes to strict bedtimes, but I just can't get enough of these smiles. 


Thatcher now sits at (on) the table with us for dinner.  I look forward to it all day.




This is one of my favorites.  Two of my favorite boys actually smiling at the camera.

Jump Around

Thatcher's favorite place in the house right now is in the "Jumperoo".  Hey recently figured out how to jump in it,  and now he loves to sit and jump all day.  We like to use it as a way to tire him out at the end of the day, before bed. Check out his hops!
