The Second Week with Our Three Sons

We made it through another week. Gavin really is a sweet baby. He doesn't fuss very much. And he's a great sleeper. For the past three nights, he has gone five hours between feedings. I nurse him between 10-11pm and he sleeps until 3-3:30am. Yippee!! Adam and Matthew are enamored with him. Matt keeps calling him "precious baby". All of our help has gone home so we're on our own now. Robert has this week off so is helpful. He's been able to take off three weeks. Next week when I'm by myself will be the true test. Thank goodness it's summer break and I don't have to get the boys up and ready for school.


Matthew finished Preschool and had his graduation this past Wednesday. He looked so cute in his cap and gown. Of course, he felt a bit self-conscious and didn't really want to pose for pictures. In this photo with his teacher, Ms. Janine, he had to say his name and tell what he wants to be when he grows up. He said he wants to be a ninja.

Adam had his last awards assembly of the school year on Wednesday, too. He was most excited about getting a running award. He received a Silver Medal for running the second most miles this spring semester. His school has a running program. The students use their after-lunch recess (15 minutes) to run laps. Adam is very motivated to do this and would run 1.25-1.5 miles everyday. He was able to run 55 miles this semester. He was the youngest student to receive a medal.
