Chubbs

This week we've had a great time hanging out with Lesley's sister Karen and her new husband Andy who are in town for a week. Pictures of our adventures to follow. I feel pretty behind on posting Nate pictures, so I just grabbed a random handful here.

Chubbs is growing up a storm and continues to rank high in his weight percentiles. At his 3 month doctor's appointment on Tuesday, he weighed 14 lbs 12.5 oz, placing him in the 80th percentile for weight. His length is now 22.8 inches, placing him in just the 44th percentile for length. Short and fat. There's a reason we sometimes call him "Thunder Thighs."

The first few pictures here are of a 1.4 mile swim race that Matt competed in at Waimea Bay. He didn't train for it at all and still managed to do really well. What a natural athlete! However, we all enjoyed the fact that our friend Alex (short for Alexandra - a GIRL) beat Matt by two minutes. Turns out Alex was swimming varsity in 7th grade, though, which made Matt feel a little better. :o)

Making faces Matt looking ripped before the start of the race. He is so fit right now. But YES, that is Alex the speedy fish on the left! Todd is on the right (who also did super well).When we got home, both Nate and Daddy crashed out in the living room. Nate loves napping in his swing, and Daddy loves napping on the floor. Believe it or not, we do own a bed!

This was the first (and only) time that Emma showed Nate any affection.

This Newfoundland looked like a bear, but was the most gentle dog you could imagine.

Saddest face ever.
