Boston now weighs 20 lbs 8 oz (99th percentile) and is in the 91st percentile for his height. He is getting more social and has a fuzz of dark hair growing all over his head. He has finally started laughing and loves to be tickled and to "wrestle" with daddy. Boston absolutely LOVES Stephen. Stephen is becoming more and more helpful with entertaining Boston, and likes to bring him toys or give him his pacifier when he cries. I love to see the two of them interacting and building sibling bonds. The above picture demonstrates Stephen's efforts to entertain Boston while I was making dinner one night. He gave him toys, the pacifier, and the burp cloth. Finally, Stephen put his own flip flops on Boston's feet. I am not sure how this was meant to calm Boston but it seemed to work! Boston became distracted by the strange things on his feet and was so involved in trying to get them (he couldn't actually reach) that he forgot to cry!Boston also has another friend - his two year old cousin, Atley. She is facinated with him and mothers him as much as we will let her. She is so sweet and loves to tuck him in with blankets and will "hold" him whenever she gets the chance. As you can see from the picture, Boston isn't too much smaller than Atley! They look a little dazed in the picture but they both really enjoy each other. I love seeing Boston winning over the hearts of those around him!

There are few things greater in life than seeing family and friends enjoy your baby, huh? I thought about that a lot when we were in UT...it's so nice that you have a little entertainer for Boston! I joke about adopting an older kid so that I have one for Evan! :)
He certainly has won my heart- he is absolutely adorable!! I love all of his rolls, his perfect skin, and all of the adorable and endearing looks he seems to give you. It sounds like Stephen is soo sweet with him too! Congrats on having two sweet, cute boys mama!
