Even baby Philip loves our new backyard!

Philip - 2 months old

My apologies for posting so many pictures but my babies are growing up so fast! After finally getting settled into our new home at Stanford graduate housing, we have all decided that it was worth all the work moving requires because we love it here! The boys love that there is a park in our backyard with many new friends to play with. We went bowling with other grad student families today and had so much fun. Thomas and James scored over 100 and it was their first time! (There were bumpers though.) Baby Philip is still cheery and smiley. The boys still adore him and are so sweet and helpful with him. A couple weeks ago, we noticed James has a little gray tooth and after a couple visits to the dentist it was confirmed that his front tooth is dying. I don't even remember him falling or getting hit. He probably cried and I just told him to toughen up. I have made an extra effort to bond with him over the past couple weeks. He loves to cuddle, do crafts, dance, and take pictures. There is nothing more precious than James excitedly holding up the camera saying "Mommy say cheese!" He actually takes great pictures. 

Thomas and James have a new favorite film... Mama Mia! Somehow they have gotten confused and think Merril Streep is Nick's mom so now they are calling her "Grandma Mia." Thomas has been extremely verbal lately and saying the cutest things. The other day we drove past Nick's law school and Thomas said to James, "James, that's STANford! That's where Daddy lives."
