brother and sister, 100% rowdy, a deeee-lish dinner & lottie sue works her guns

Rowdy is three weeks old today, it seems like he was born just yesterday! Anywho, he is packing on weight, this boy is NOT afraid to eat (and eat and eat) and he's gained over two pounds since leaving the hospital. He's really filling out and he has that strawberry blond hair that Lottie Sue had when she was his age. He is looking less like an old man and more like a little baby, ha! His favorite things to do are: EAT, sleep and cuddle with anyone. His love language is physical touch, no doubt about it. We are working on getting him on a day and night schedule and so far it's going well. He will sleep all night with no crying, so we can just pop in there to feed him and he goes right back down. He's becoming more alert during the day and likes to look in the direction of lights.

Lottie Sue has been a dream with him, we keep waiting for her to act out at home or at school but so far she's been her usual lovely self. She is very into "baby brother" and she likes to help with him, it lasts about three seconds but at least she shows interest I guess...

Matt had a photo session with them last night and here is what we have. Rowdy doesn't really cooperate that much and Lottie Sue won't get out of any shot. She wants us to take her picture so she can then look at it on the view finder. Here are our kids!

isn't he ADORABLE???

little brother, big sister

Beth came over last week to meet the little Mr. Mowrer. Upon her arrival Lottie Sue went NUTS, she loves loves loves her some Beth. When Beth left she asked me where she went and when she was coming back...

three pretty adorable people

Beth ALSO gave us a SAH-WEET gift for Rowdy - CHECK IT OUT! I LOVE THESE ONSIES!!!

This past weekend the Gilmores were in town for the Georgia game (IN YOUR FACE, SHON - loveyouthoughkisses) and we (I mean Matt) made a deeee-lish meal and invited the Smiths over as well.

Lottie Sue likes to eat well and stay in shape, she consistently works out her guns.

she really works hard, she grunts a lot during the reps

Lottie Sue LOVES to play "nite nite" - it's a game in which she commands you to act like you are asleep. She has been playing this game since she could barely speak. She loves to put items to bed; dolls, books, shoes, people and so on...

I snapped this photo of Elmo and Cookie last night, I saw she had them in bed before she went down for the evening. Too cute.

elmo and cookie are out like a light

I leave you with this photo of Cass, Patterson sent it to me last week and he's to cute not to publish. Go vols!

patterson said he loves to watch football on the telly

OK, I am amazed I actually created a post - I rock! Life is busy with a newborn but we are enjoying it, I would of course like more sleep but I can function without it for the meantime. Just don't ask me to do any math.
