Wow, has time flown...Nate is 16 weeks old today! His "birth day" feels like yesterday, but at the same time it's hard to imagine life before him! He is such a sweet and happy baby...and he is sleeping 11 hours at night so life is good for everyone! I know thumbsucking isn't a very good habit, but it is just so cute! I guess that's how it starts...
This weekend wasn't particularly eventful, but we did get out and about some to enjoy the beautiful, mild weather. Friday evening was so nice out, so Paula and I took the boys to walk at the park. It is supposed to be exercise for us, but normally it turns in to a baby photo shoot about half way through.
Tummy time is an important daily event in our house. Nate likes to get a little lazy on his tummy and just lay his head down after only playing a short time, so I bought him a new toy this weekend in an attempt to keep him interested. I think it is working...
On Sunday we went to visit Davis. We try to get there every season to put new flowers out and clean his marker...sadly, it had been since his birthday that we had been there. But miraculously, the little dinosaurs that we took to him for his birthday were still there. I have thought a lot in the last year and a half about how we will talk to our children about Davis, and I don't know that I have those answers yet. But we took Nate with us this weekend and I hope by going there it helps to open up the door for that conversation as the years go by.And, on a much lighter note, here are some goofy pics of Nate...

Hey Erin...I just love keeping up with you and Michael and Nate on your blog- it's awesome! And I am so with you on thumb sucking being cute...Taylor does it too and I just sit there and stare at him in his crib - I love it!! Of course, if he is still doing it at 8, maybe I will not love it so much...:) Glad you all are doing well...take care, Mary Beth
Ok, I finally got this account to work so I can post a comment! I can't remember what I was trying to post the other night, but I think this comment might be a little better:) I just love this blog and all you have put on here. This recent 15th weekend posting is the best...it is great to see the adorable pics of Nathan and I think it is so amazing to add the rememberance of Davis to this blog...everything looks so beautiful and peaceful there in that photo. Very cool and emotional too!! Love you guys so much and am so happy and thankful you let me share in Nate's life, I just adore him!!! How could anyone not though?!? I am definitely coming by to see that little punkin this weekend!!
