We took Noah to have blood work done and it turns out he is anemic (or was) and needed to take a daily iron supplement. He hates it, and we think it makes him irritable and awake. Apparently term babies gather their store of iron during the third trimester - enough to last them until they start eating cereal at 6 months.
We have really tried to have quality time with Ethan. We picked up hamburgers from Sandy's (mmm) after the blood work and played at a nearby park. I love the view of the Austin skyline from all angles of this park.
I got my snuggler. He wants to be held all the time! Such a sweetie.
Ethan is all about playing with Noah. Here he is tickling Noah's belly. Noah flaps his arms, and Ethan says that means Noah likes it and he keeps doing it. I love to see his heart for his brother.
Anytime Noah makes a noise, Ethan tries to give him the paci. Even if Noah isn't crying, but just making normal newborn noises. I've had to start implementing a do not touch Noah's paci rule.
because this is what ultimately happens!
Here Ethan is saying Noah is trying to tickle him. I love it!
The nakedness is due to potty training. He is potty trained, I just haven't been brave enough to risk taking him out of the house in just underwear. Here he was refusing to put underwear on after going potty and I was in the middle of taking pictures of Noah, and Ethan wanted to be in the picture to. Ah, a glimpse of the fun that is to come.
