Finn ~ 8 weeks!

Finn is 8 weeks today! Time seems to go a little faster with each boy. He's still a sweet baby. Growing, eating, sleeping etc. Last night he woke up twice, which is very rare!!! But he must going through a little growth spurt I guess. This morning he laughed out loud for the first time, it was the cutest thing ever, it made me laugh too. He's definitely the most serious out of the three. It's hard to say of course since he's just a baby. But I remember the other two smiling more at this stage. It's amazing how different their personalities can be. And their looks too. I get so many different comments on Finn's looks! Some people say he's definitely a De Winkle, others say he looks just like me. And some say he looks like Tys, and others think he looks a lot like Nieko. One thing is for sure; he's a good mix!

I just love those chubby cheeks!

Maybe some of you have read about Nieko's tooth on facebook. Here's to the non-facebookers.
Nieko fell and chipped his tooth yesterday... Nearly half of it is gone. He didn't even really cry about it. Anyways, I called the dentist and went and saw her yesterday, and she recommended me taking him to a pediatric dentist, so I did. This morning the dentist checked him out. He filed the sharp edge of the tooth, and said that there was not much else he could do. He might get an abcess, and the tooth might start turning brown/grey within a month. But for now, we're just going to leave it. If we choose to, we can have the dentist make a filling, and kind of "fix it", but he said a lot of times those don't last on little baby teeth.
So that's the story on Nieko's tooth.
I'd take a broken tooth over a broken femur any day, by the way! I'm already used to his chipped tooth, and I think he's still good-looking.

Even though the lighting in this picture isn't great, I think it's a cute one!
Every day the boys want to hold on to Finn. And overload him with (sometimes slobbery) kisses.
Finn doesn't seem to mind.


We're waiting for my sister Anyke to have a baby, any day now! Her official due date is the 24th. She doesn't know what she's having, so we're real curious!!

Two of my sisters-in-law are expecting!!!
