Funny Tarren

I have been pumping for the baby and Tarren has come in while I am doing it and wanted me to do stuff or hold him and I tell him, "not right now Tarren I am pumping." Well, we have a small hand pump the hospital gave to us that I don't use and Tarren picked it up this morning and pulled up his shirt, stuck it to his chest and said, "pumping." I couldn't help but laugh. He then went on to try and pull his whole shirt off. The whole time he kept saying, "pumping mommy pumping." Later he created a little song with pumping. The only word I could understand was pumping pumping pumping. It was my laugh for the day.

Family Pictures, movies and more...

We went to Toy Story 3 on Saturday. We weren't sure if Tarren was going to pay attention to the movie, but he did. He was very excited to be there. During the previews, he kept dancing around and jumping up and down. Once the movie started, he did a pretty good job of sitting still and watching it. He LOVES popcorn. I don't like popcorn, but Spencer and Tarren do. So, we got a bag and I think Tarren would have eaten the whole thing if we would have let him. He woke up the next morning wanting popcorn for breakfast. The cutest thing about the whole movie was that when Tarren got home he went and found his T-Rex and started playing with it. He carried it around for days.

We are starting to experience a little jealousy with Samuel. Tarren wanted to be held the other morning when I got him out of bed, but I had Samuel. So, we went and all sat on the bed. Tarren had to have my arm around him. So, I had the baby in one arm trying to feed him and Tarren in the other. When it came time for me to burp Samuel, I had to take my arm away from Tarren. He did not like that and wasn't about to let it happen. He kept his head under my arm while I burped Samuel. It was a tricky thing to say the least. He still refers to Samuel as baby. He doesn't really call him by his name and he doesn't really say brother yet, but he is getting used to him being here...I think.

We did family pictures yesterday. My brother is starting to get into the photography thing, so he came out and took pictures for us. It was tricky because we don't have enough light in our house for the pictures to come out so we had to do them outside. It was a little warm outside, but I think we got some good pictures. My brother did a good job for his first time and we really appreciate him being willing to do it for us and in the heat too. It was hard to keep Tarren focused because he loves to be outside and play. He sweats a lot too, so after awhile his hair was drenched.



Samuel is growing and changing everyday. He is a little over 2 weeks right now. He is a good eater, but he eats slow. He is too bad at sleeping. The most he has gone is 5 hours. He is quite the little grunter. I am enjoying holding him and loving him and I can't wait to see his little personality.
