A Sleep-full Night

Last night marked the first night that Andy slept through the entire night!!! Some of you might not understand how great this is, but Robby has only slept through the entire night about 10 times since he was born, so we were estatic when it happened! Let's hope it continues on.

Fall has brought many activities for our family. Here is a picture of Robby and his buddy, Nolan, becoming "Future Farmers" on our hayride.
Tom and I took Robby and Andy on their first train ride - The Coopersville / Marne Pumpkin Train. Both boys had a great time.

Fall also brings beautiful leaves - a whole lot of them! Trees are great for shade and beauty, but Robby likes them best when they produce a huge pile for him to jump in.

This week also marked the start of the dreaded "shots". I'm happy to report that Andy felt his first vaccine shots at his 2 month check-up. It's a little odd to think that one should be happy he feels pain, but we are! Robby, also had his share of tears w/ his flu shot. Oh the joy of walking out of the doctor's office w/ crying children; at least Robby's watermellon sucker helped!

Images of Robby's & Andy's Brotherly Love:
* Robby decided to wash Andy's bottles in the sink. When I discovered that he had crawled on top of the counter & added soap to a near overflowing sink of water, I could only laugh at the sight of every bottle surrounded in foam.
* Jealous of Andy's need for attention at feeding time, Robby has tried to learn the art of spitting. Thank goodness he can't figure it out yet, so the end result is he kisses Andy unhappily.
* Convinced that every person needs a set of tools, Robby laid out a set on Andy's swing for him to play with.
