FaLLiNg LeAvEs...

Yesterday was so nice. Actually what am I talking about this whole week has been gorgeuos! We have been outside so much. I love it. The boys were having so much fun with the leaves. I thought I would take advantage of it since if I had planned it they would not want to take pictures! I know they are not Sara quality but I love them! Happy Fall!

I really have nothing to write about. Things are going well with us. Crew is fitting into the family nicely. Cody and Landen are totally into him. Those are their exact words. Landen can't keep away from him. He always wants to give him kisses and loves. He also wants to know where Crew is at all times. Every time we leave the house to go somewhere he asks me if we are taking Crew with us. Not sure what he is thinking with that one. I just love that the boys are so concerned and love this new little brother so much! He is still a very easy going baby. Sleeps all the time. This little guy just melts your heart! Here are some random photos from the week.

Landen is dang cute! Even when his hair is a giant fuzz ball! This is what he looks like when he wakes up in the morning. He does not want his hair cut. I don't know why. He hates when I try to comb it or do anything with it. When I do Cody's hair and spike it all up Landen freaks out and tells me he does not want his hair spiked up like Cody's. I really do not understand this. Cody has never cared about what I did to his hair. I thought it would be fun to let Landen's hair grow out a bit and see what it looked like. But now it is getting crazy.

My 3 sOnS....

Kind of weird saying that! I never thought I would have 3 boys! It is awesome and overwhelming all at once. Cody is on his fall break so I was alone for the first time with all 3 boys, all day!!! I would have to say yesterday has been my hardest day so far. I was totally out of patience and energy. So it was really nice today when my sweet neighbor Nikki offered to take Cody swimming with their family. What a relief to have just one gone. Then I got Landen to sleep and Crew of course has been sleeping all day. He is gearing up for a wakeful night! I was able to get some rest, recuperate a bit and get some blogging done. Today was also Crew's 2 week check-up. He is up 4 oz. and growing beautifully. His billi level is still a bit high but going down. He is still really yellow. We go back in 2 weeks for a weight check.

Today I had to bring the boys along with me. Not real fun. They did not want to listen. Finally got them to sit against the wall and they could have a sucker. Worked really good!


Here is Mr. Landen after a hard day of being a boy!

Crew-Today


Crew-Last Sunday

Today Crew is one week old! It has gone so fast and yet seems like so long ago. We have been through a lot in one week. He is doing so good and is so much fun! We had another appointment today to check his billi level and it was down slightly. So we are done with all the heel pricking. His heels are so sad. There is no room left for any more pricks! He is still such a good baby. He sleeps great too!

Our Sweet Baby Boy
Crew Marco Taysom
Was Born on October 3rd 2008. He weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz. 20.5 inches long.

This is going to be brief since I am so tired. Crew was born 3 weeks early. I cannot tell you how exciting that was! What a dream come true. Everything went great as far as delivery goes. I was up and walking around that morning and ready to go home! But Crew had other plans and ended up spending 4 days in the level 2 nursery. He is doing great now. We had a check up today. He is back up to his birth weight, got circumcised (ouch!) and had his billi level checked. He is a little high so we need to go back in the morning to check it again. We all are doing great. Adjusting very well. The Boys are so cute with him and love him to pieces. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped us out, brought us meals and kept us in your prayers. Thanks to Grandmas and Grandpas who stayed with us and helped out so much with the boys and around the house. We could not have done it with out all of you!

P.S. My Mom has been doing a much better job keeping up to date with Crew. So check out her blog (lynette and Dan) to see pictures and updates from the Hospital!
