Pumpkin Picking

As is tradition, we went to St. Luke's for some pumpkin picking this year.  This is was our third year to do this.  First year, Michael was just a baby.  2nd year, Michael was able to pick out his own pumpkins and I was about 6 wks pregnant with Pierce.  This year we had both boys with us.  It's great looking back through the previous year's pictures and seeing how things change over the years.

Happy 4 Months Pierce!

I can't believe my little Pierce is already 4 months old. The time is really going quickly. Pierce had is checkup last week with the pediatrician. Turns out he's got eczema or as the doctor described it, "You've got yourself a sensitive white boy." So far it hasn't been bad, just a few dry patches here and there. I rub cortizone and lotion on him twice a day. He should outgrown it by the age of two. Sleep has been so so. Pierce now goes to bed without a fight, but sleeping through the night has still been a struggle. We tried crying it out last weekend and it went pretty well, but Michael decided to stat waking up in the middle of the night saying, "I'm not sleepy." The boys seem to be tag teaming me during the night. We started rice cereal last week and he loves it. He is up to 2T twice a day. Later this week I'm going to introduce some green beans. Here are his stats:
Height: 26"
Weight: 16 lbs.
Head 16 1/6
