Something about these pictures make me feel like an ER visit could be in our future!

3 months!


Baby Clay you are three months old today!

And it is really amazing that there is 15lbs of you, because every day I feel like I could just eat you up. Seriously, I can't get enough!

As much as I love a newborn, this has been my favorite month yet, I can tell that there is someone inside that sweet head of yours!

You have become so social, smiling, cooing, kicking, and following our movements around the room with your eyes.

You just need one word and a little eye contact and you are smiling, heck you are even smiling when I am scolding your brothers or talking on the phone!

You have been sleeping better, from about 9pm until 4am, though after that you usually don't go back to sleep very well, apparently no one has told you yet that you Mama is not a morning person!


I think that your growing has slowed a bit, but your Daddy thinks that you are huge!

 You have been loving checking out the colors and lights of your play gym and sitting in your bouncy seat in the middle of the action.

Everyday your Daddy and I marvel at the amazing things you do, and I say "you are the cutest thing I have ever seen!" and your Daddy says "Oh Clay, she said the same thing about your brothers!" Well I have been telling the truth all 3 times!
Love you Baby Clay.

Scott celebrated ANOTHER birthday this week (always have to rub it in because I will ALWAYS be a year younger:))














 We had a great night of family and grilling, and Scott got a Snuggie!



                                                                     Awesome!

We have also had some much needed rearranging going on. Last Sunday, about 4pm Quinn opens the door to his room and comes walking out-not so strange? Well just 10minutes prior he was safely sleeping in his crib. Scott and I just looked at eachother, and then asked him to show us how he got out, which he did over and over like a little army guy! He sure was proud of himself! The bunkbeds were apart that very evening, and I must say that it has been going very well, and he loves his "big boy bed!" Jack also thinks that he has a brand new bed, one he can now jump on, which has become the new favorite sport in the Thorson house. Quinn hasn't quite figured out that he can get out by himself yet, which is working out perfect for Mommy and Daddy!

School Days

Jack startd 4yr old preschool on Monday. After starting the morning crying about having to put matching clothes on, he had a remarkedly good day! (I don't suppose having the 1st day immediately following a "do anything you want whenever you want to do it" weekend at Grandma's was the best plan!) Here's to a great year buddy!

Baby Girl

The boys and I packed up last weekend and headed to Holstein to meet someone very special! Kyra Audra Albers was in town and we weren't missing it for the world! Oh the sweetness (and the pink and hairbows I have been waiting for!)




All the "Albers" grandbabies!




We went to Charmac with the kids to see my Grandpa and Grandma and aunts and uncles.






Check out the difference 2 months makes! We couldn't et them any closer because Clay kept whacking her in the face!




We, of course, had lots of fun hanging out at the park and with Papa Wayne and Gramma Kaye too!








Clay had his 1st cold while we were there and Papa finally got him to sleep after a VERY long night, let me tell you Clay and the bulb syringe are NOT friends!







Look who's excited for Hawkeye kickoff!
