Lachlan is growing...lots! We took him in this past week and he was 8lbs 14 oz. He's gained a pound in two weeks. He's really cooing and smiling and "talking" to us too. He's still an excellent baby. So easy going...you can talk him out of almost anything if he's fussy. We started doing infant massage this week, and he loves it. It's funny to watch him stretch and grunt as I massage his legs. Shayne watched and just laughed at him. You'll notice a theme to the pics with Shayne...he's the one who takes him after I feed, burps, and then puts him to sleep. I think it's an excuse to take a nap himself! :) I actually substitute taught yesterday, so Lachlan and Daddy got to hang out the whole day! Shayne did a great job...the best baby-sitter I could ever find.
On a totally different note...Did I mention that my littlest brother Bowdrie got his mission call a couple of weeks ago? I was going to do this big post, but never got to it...sorry Bowd! Anyway...he's headed to the Minnesota, Minneapolis mission on Dec. 31st. He's going to freeze to death, but he's excited. :) I'm hoping that we can make it down for his "farewell" the first couple of weeks of December, but we'll see what happens.
Anyway...enjoy the pics. Again...they are mostly for our family...namely the grandma's and the sister's who are always demanding more pics. But, everyone can enjoy them.
Grammy Jo took this pic of him smiling. He's been doing A LOT more of that in the past couple of weeks. It's so cute...just melts my heart.
Three generations...each of them is the oldest in their families.
He's started to get good at getting his hands to his mouth and licking or sucking on them. We've caught him a couple of times with his thumb in his mouth...Grammy Jo thought it was the cutest thing...I would have to agree!

He is just adorable! Does Shayne ever take that hat off? I think he has it on in every picture! You look GREAT!
I'm so glad that you posted again. I check EVERY day like twice a day to see if you or shancy have posted anything new! I'm seriously dieing to see them both!! He is too cute, and LITTLE! Kinzie in her two month appointment weighed 11.3 lbs! Do you think he will get to that weight this year?????
Oh I love all of these pics. He is just soooo precious. Thanks for adding more to the blog.
He looks so much like Shayne in the first picture...only cuter.:) Thanks for humoring Jolee with the baby. You are a good sport. We just love that boy!
What a sweet sweet baby! He looks so cute and changing so fast! You look great too. So does Shayne wear his hat to church too? He cracks me up!
Congrats on the big blessing day. He is so handsome. What a charmer. Really he is a beautiful baby.
Of course he knows! He wants to too! :D By the way, you and Shayne make a cute baby. I'm glad that you got to have one because he makes the world cuter in a world of weird looking people. lol Anyhow, where did you guys get his little blessing outfit? I've been looking for something and haven't found anything that's less than $30-I just can't justify spending that much on something he'll only wear once...the practical college student side is always making itself known...
Pepper, congratulations on your adorable baby boy. Your Mom kept telling us at church how cute he is. She was right. He's handsome.
