Alannah - 7 weeks

And yes, we still have Caeden and Colm around. Though they are not the popular ones in the pictures lately :-) Caeden loves his little sister. He often asks to "see her face". He likes to help pick out her outfits and is convinced pink is her favorite color. The boys have "discovered" Popeye, thanks to Da and the wonderful YouTube. They will sit for awhile and watch episodes on the computer. And Caeden has figured out how to work the mouse to start another one and adjust the volume. Caeden told me the other day that when he grows up and he finishes being an astronaut he will be a fireman. These are his 2 favorite occupations right now and he is often playing something with them, or his classic stand by tools and wood. 

Colm is becoming quite the talker. He is putting several words together and talking in sentences now. He will often surprise me by saying a word I didn't realize he knew. He also will mimic just about anything Caeden says or does. Which is something kinda cute, but not so cute when they are getting in trouble. Some of his latest lines are "not yet mama", or "no, mama" and "coming". He will also asked to be excused from the table and if he is feeling tired or crabby or really upset asks to go to his bed (cause that's the only place his paci and bear are allowed) He is a wonderful sleeper, he's been sleeping a good 13+ hours a night lately and I have been enjoying quiet mornings with "only" 2 kids around, allowing me to do things like update the blog......... :-) 

The little princess relaxing in Da's arms

You know, sometimes it's rough being the 3rd kid. Alannah was ready to go to sleep. But I got sidetracked changing laundry, and then folding it and straightening the bedroom. And then I realized the poor girl had fallen asleep in the rocker all by herself. So, i had to get a couple pictures of her "rocking herself to sleep".  Besides that, she still fits just perfectly in the chair.
