Soccer and Finn at 3 months

Liam and Luke started recreational soccer for a few weeks this fall/winter.  Luke is definitely a fair amount taller than Liam right now and while Liam is small, Luke is BIG.  When we got his kindergarten class picture, he was a head taller than any other kid in his class.  Liam, on the other hand, was pretty average in height.

Daddy is going to help with coaching!

Getting ready to play or maybe just a little dazed...

These two (this one and above) pictures are courtesy of Liam.  He loves to take pictures and he's good at it.  Granted, there were about 10 or more that I deleted because of various reasons but these two look great!

Sweet Finn is so big for a three month old!  His pillow was made by Aunt Sarah.

Luke and Liam are going to try some recreational soccer this fall/winter.  We tried t-ball over the summer and enjoyed it pretty well although baseball is a little slow for five year olds (and me).  I am hoping that soccer will move faster and keep their attention a little better.  They had their first game/skills class on Saturday and really enjoyed it.

Finn turned three months old on October 29th, but I am behind on posting anything after the posts for Halloween and a visit from Grandpa Morse.  So, here's to Finn!  He is much bigger than your average 3 month old and looks more like a six month old!  Finn has been sleeping through the night for several weeks now which is a HUGE blessing to his parents!  There just isn't an opportunity to "nap when the baby naps" when you have three other kids to entertain so night sleep is a precious commodity.  Finn continues to be an easy going fourth child.  John and I often comment that we don't know how we could be so fortunate to have such an "easy" baby.  His brothers certainly didn't have as much patience as Finn.  He gets carted around a lot to school, errands, play dates, doctor appointments, etc...He loves his brothers and loves to laugh and smile at them when they play with him.  I still think he favors Liam a lot, but honestly he has features similar to all of his brothers.  He coos, laughs, and is easy going like Luke as a baby, has facial features similar to Liam, and has a body size and some facial features of Aiden so he is a good mix!  He is already moving out of 3-6 month clothing into 9 month clothes.  I don't know his exact weight, but would guess he is around 15-16 pounds.  He is a good eater, good sleeper, and happy most of the time.  We all love him and are thankful for his addition to our crazy house.
