Sam is 3 months!

I can't believe Sam is 3 months already. He is getting big weighting in at 15 pounds. I am not sure how long he is now..but he looks really long. He is not sleeping great..which is hard because Isabella was a great sleeper. We are starting to try to just let him cry it out at night. I am praying that within three nights or so he will be trained to sleep through the night.
He laughed for the first time the other day. He has only laughed for me so Matt is not entirely sure that he has actually done it. I assure you that he has and it is really cute. I will try to get it on video soon.
He does not enjoy tummy time, but I am trying to do it a little more everyday. He spends a lot of his awake time in his happy place--the bouncy seat. He is starting to grab things. He loves to look at you and smile. It is so nice when they start interacting with you. Here are some recent pics:

1st Hair Cut

Well, I am a little slow with some things and Isabella's hair is one of them. I had put off getting her hair cut b/c it just wasn't that long. But the ends have really been bothering me lately. We were getting ready for our trip back to Harlingen and I did not have the time to take her to a salon so I decided that I would just do it myself. She really had a great time too.
Here are some pictures of what the finished product looked like. You can decide for yourself if I did a good job. The pictures aren't the best, but you get the idea.

Bubble Time!!

Isabella loves to blow bubbles! It has been her favorite thing to do outside since it got nice out. Her and her daddy thought of a new game to play. She goes out to our car and waits for us to blow some bubbles by the house. Once she sees some bubbles...she runs across the lawn (very fast) to try to catch the bubbles. Here are some pictures of her in action. Now that I have a video camera I will take a video of her doing it too. But for now..here are some pictures:

Sam at 2 Months

Sam is getting so big all of the sudden. He getting so long! I am curious to see what his stats are on Tuesday when we go in for his two month check-up. I feel as though he is finally coming out of the infant stage. I have come to realize I am not a huge fan of this stage. I am very excited that he is starting to interact with us more and smiling a lot. It feels much more rewarding during the day. Here are some recent pics:

1st Dance Class

Isabella had her first Dance class last week and it went really well...once she started moving around. The first half was tap and it took her a little while to start jumping around, but once she did she loved it. She is doing it around the house now everyday and can't wait to go back. The second half of the class is ballet and she did well with that too. I am sorry that I did not get pictures of her doing her ballet, but Sam was not too happy at that time and I couldn't hold a camera.

Growing Boy

Sam is getting bigger by the day. He is now 7 weeks old and doing very well. He is starting to smile a little bit. There is a picture to fallow of him almost smiling..I didn't quite get the picture. Now that I have two little ones I really feel like a real mom. I am not saying that I wasn't one with just one child..it is just a lot different with two. Yesterday, I went to the outlet with both kids by myself and after more than two hours I realized that I left the car running (w/ ac on). Neadless to say I was a little worried my car wouldn't be there or it would be out of gas. Neither was the case. We are thanking God on the way home (A LOT)!!
Things have changed a lot with our home and life. It is (mostly) all wonderful.
Here are some pics from the last few weeks.


This is Isabella and her friend Harkins.

2 Months!

Sorry to have taken so long to post pictures. I am having a hard time getting up the motivation to do a post. The last two months have gone really fast. Here are some pics from before Sam was born.
