Sweetest Boy

Sawyer continues to grow and I love him more all the time. I really enjoy spending our days together and I am so blessed that I am able to stay home with him. He is still talking all the time and his laugh is SO CUTE. He will belly laugh like he really thinks something is funny.
He has been grabbing at things lately. Last night he grabbed his own hair. He couldn't figure out how to let it go...poor kid just started screaming as he pulled his fistful of hair. It was really funny. He is losing a lot of hair on the sides of his head and the new hair growing in is so blonde you can hardly see it. I am thrilled because I think he's going to have white blonde hair like Ty.
He's also been drooling non stop. He loves chewing on his hands and anything he is holding :-) Teeth are in his near future.

The other day I sat him out in the front yard. He loves being outside. Here are a bunch of pictures.

Baseball Fan

My Aunt Diane sent Sawyer a St. Louis Cardinals Tshirt. He was so cute in it I had to find him a little hat to go with it. He is the cutest baseball player I've ever seen. thanks Aunt Diane for the sweet package. It was such a fun surprise! My first package in the mail to our new house. :-)

Gabe is here

Monday afternoon our dear friends Matt and Kristi's new addition arrived. Gabriel Stephen Ruckel was 8 lbs 3 oz. Tyson, Sawyer and I were able to be there in the waiting room when he arrived. What a special event to be present for. We are loving little Gabe already!! Even though Sawyer slept through the entire thing it was fun for me to have him there when his new friend arrived. :-) Sawyer seems so big to me now. Everyone always says that but holding him up next to Gabe was unreal. I can only imagine how Kristi feels about Ben (can't believe he is almost 2!)


What a cool guy! :-)

3 Months

Today Sawyer conquered the bumbo seat. I can't believe he is sitting up. He looks so big these days. Still talking all the time and smiling more and more. He has found his right hand and is constantly chewing on it. He finds his thumb sometimes but I'm still not sure if he is going to be a thumb sucker. I'm so blessed to have such a sweet and happy baby boy. I spend my days constantly laughing at his cute noises and funny faces. He is the happiest baby and he brings so much joy into our home!!!
