Finley is such a good brother.  Vera would be lost with out him.  She wants to do anything and everything that he does.  He takes good care of her and Kade.  He talks  in his sweetest voice to Kade all the time and to Vera sometimes* :)  He is pretty independent....bathes himself, brushes his teeth, dresses, makes his own lunch and pours his own cereal and drinks with minimal spills.  He is quite the story teller.  He can come up with a story on the spot...one after another...usually about aliens, or fighting or something "spooky".  He can count to 100, spell his name and do some simple adding and subtracting.  He is really good at finding patterns.  He struggles with phonics a bit...still calls Vera, Bera...I think he is pretty smart though :)  Luke and I love this kid and couldn't imagine our lives with out his fun little spirit!



Kade @ 2 months










STATS @ 2 months + 2 weeks :  11 pounds 14oz & 22inches

This boy is HAPPY. He sure loves the attention he gets and he LOVES to talk now.  I could listen to his cooing all day. He loves to be held outward to see what's going on (and the added pressure on the belly helps him too)  He is sleeping 4 hours at a time.  He has really strong leg and neck muscles.  I am pretty sure he is my happiest baby, but I guess all of my babies have been happy so it is hard to say. I am absolutely in love with him and he is my current favorite. :)
