Troy – Day 23 – July 18th


Couldn’t decide on my favorite for these two.? Love the back wrinkles on the top one and loved the grin on the bottom.? I think I just love every little thing about him.? :)?? Today, during bath time, I put a warm wash cloth on him and he started full belly giggling in his sleep.??? I don’t remember any of my other kids giggling in their sleep as newborns.? It was hysterical.? I do remember that Tanner giggled for the first time at 10 weeks because it was at the end of my hospital bed when I had my gall bladder removed.

I am loving watching the dynamics of the sibling relationships play out.?? Tanner is Troy’s protector and defender.?? I trust Tanner to pick Troy up and comfort him and when Troy makes a peep, Tanner is right there on it.? Ty affirms and gives affection.? It is actually Ty that kisses him the most often during the day (well besides me).? Every day Ty has said “I love my new brother”.? Tori talks to him.? She sounds so cute in her little mama voice speaking assurances to him “you are okay baby – it is okay baby”.? Just sweet as could be.
