Ladies' Man

All of the little girls in Gus' class seem to adore him.  They are always running up to give him hugs before he leaves.   Gus doesn't pay the girls any attention. 

One day last week I was picking Gus up from Lunch Bunch at school.  He was sitting next to one of the girls from his class.  Tilly is a cute little girl from the UK.  Her mom once told Pat that she talks about Gus all the time.  While I was helping Gus pack up his stuff, she turned to me and whispered (in her awesome little British accent), "I like him".  It was so sweet but Gus just ignored the whole thing.

Do bubbles ever get old??

My boys love bubbles, especially Cormac.  He received Bubble-Mater for his birthday and has a great time pushing him around outside.

Both boys still love "regular" bubbles.

Cadel just enjoys sitting outside in the mild weather.

Four months old

Cadel had his four-month check-up on Monday.  He is growing and doing beautifully.  He now weighs 16 lbs. 2.2 oz. (50-75%) and is 26 inches long (slightly above 75%). I forgot his head circumference measurement but it was also 75%.  I like to refer to him as our runt since he seems so small compared to his older brothers at the same ages (they were both 2 pounds heavier).  Cadel is so calm and content.  He loves watching his brothers in action.  He also likes rolling over and trying to figure out how to get moving.  He doesn't have any teeth yet but drools constantly.  He smiles at everyone.

Boy's best friend

Old man Max, the ever-suffering dog.  I found him in the chair surrounded by cars.  I guess some little boys thought he wanted to play.

Snow at last!

It started snowing Sunday afternoon and by early Monday morning we had almost 6 inches of snow. Gus and Cormac were thrilled!

I took them out Sunday afternoon to play.  We had a great time making and throwing snowballs, making snow angels and eating snow (Cormac). 

Max loves the snow as well--it makes him really frisky.  I always think it is funny how snow makes our white dog look dirty and off-white. 

Pat took the boys out again early Monday morning before the melt started.  Good thing too since it was almost 50 degrees Monday and most of the snow was gone by the end of the day.  Gus did have his first snow day from school though.

Watching Gus and Dad play outside in the snow trying to decide if he wants to go outside with them.

Watching everyone through the glass door and probably wishing he could be outside too.
