Fun things

Last weekend we went to the chalk art festival.  I was envisioning a Mary Poppins-like experience, and it was very cool! Here are our favorites:

We had a super fun weekend!  We got a super deal on movie tickets to a movie theater that only charges for kids over 3, so we got to see Cars 2 on opening day!  I've never seen a movie on opening day before.  It's a spy/mystery movie, which was a little over Camden's understanding, but he still liked it. I think Finn McMissile is my favorite new character.  And, watch for the Toy Story short film that plays like a preview beforehand.  On Saturday, we went to the Taylorsville Days fair and let Camden ride the carousel.  He loved it!  We also saw all the old cars that were on display.  I've never really been interested in old cars, but they're pretty fun when I'm with Camden.   

And, of course, here are some random pictures:

Happy 1-month!

Tomorrow, Nathan is a whole month old!  In some ways, it feels sooooo much longer than a month since he's been born.  I also feel like I've just been waiting for our little guy to be a normal newborn.  Perhaps he's on the verge of not being newborn, but he still fits into (a few) of his newborn clothes. 

Anyway, today the doctor said he looks and sounds great, so we get to call the home health company to come get their rocket-sized oxygen tank, the two smaller ones, and the beep-beep pulse/oximeter.  Nate may be at a higher risk for developing asthma and other lung complications because of his early pneumonia, but we'll take that as it comes.

Thanks so much for all your thoughts and prayers!

As far as personality goes...it's a little hard to tell because he still sleeps so much.  But, he seems more feisty than Camden (who didn't even wake up for the heel-pricks at the hospital).  He is a good eater and loves to be held and moved around.

PS  This is Baby Camden...

Not exactly alike, but I don't think anyone will ever have a problem knowing they are brothers!

Prayer time

Tonight part way through Camden's bedtime prayer:

Brian:  "Please help Camden to sleep well"
Camden:  (Pause.....)  "No sleep"

At least he's being honest!
