the blue blog archives: from the mouths of boys

Here's the latest message -- with pictures! -- from Alison... I don't know about you guys, but these are the photos that I was most looking forward to!

They agreed that besides baby L, mommy's room is very boring. B said he liked my pretty dress (ie the hospital gown). And S asked if it hurt to poop the baby out. Love those boys!

Say, I have a few of those blankets myself. LOL. Did Baby L get to be wrapped up in her new pink blankie yet? The boys sound like...well, boys.

Well, they didn't immediately try to undress her, so that's good... my godkids try to do that to every new baby!

Congrats to Alison and family!!!!

My boys thought the room was boring, too, until we gave them rides on the bed! Up-down, up-down ... :)

Obviously, B & S are going to be wonderful big brothers.

So, how did you answer the poop question?

Congratulations to the whole family!

Posted by: Julie at March 8, 2007 11:58 AM

"poop the baby out"! Snork! Too funny. Kids are precious.

Posted by: Carol at March 8, 2007 12:02 PM

Oh, it made me cry.... Too beautiful, too cute :)

Posted by: Dani at March 8, 2007 12:07 PM

And baby L. makes three! Congratulations, Alison! Blessings to you and your family. :-)

Posted by: Mary at March 8, 2007 12:21 PM

Is it just me or have those two aged, I mean, years? They look so big now. I know, I know, they grow up so quickly, nothing like a brand new little one to remind you of that. She is going to be a lucky one - big brothers to remind her of being "pooped out." Love it!

Posted by: Sonya at March 8, 2007 12:29 PM

Too cute and too funny!

Posted by: Sarah at March 8, 2007 12:42 PM

out of the mouth of babes indeed. just wait until they're 12, and they don't want to drag their little sister around, lol

Posted by: minnie at March 8, 2007 12:44 PM

OMG, those are THE most precious photos I have ever seen (not counting the birth of my monkey feet LOL). Such a beautiful photo series! Thanks for sharing them!!

Posted by: DebbieKnitter at March 8, 2007 2:08 PM

The big brother pictures are the best (and they made me cry)! I'll have to go look at our big brother pictures now -- it's been a while. Recently overheard at a basketball game: Son's friend, "Who is that hot chick over there?" Son, "Dude, are you high? That's my little sister!" Just something for you to look forward to ; )

Congratulations to you all -- a beautiful family.

Posted by: Janice in Camas at March 8, 2007 2:43 PM

Kids say the darndest things. ;P Congratulations again!

Posted by: C at March 8, 2007 2:54 PM

So cute! Reminds me of my twins and their babysister, many (fourteen!) years ago.

Posted by: Geertrude at March 8, 2007 2:55 PM

Lovely baby cheeks!

Posted by: Knitopia at March 8, 2007 3:05 PM

So cute! All of 'em! Happy homecoming.

Posted by: Silvia at March 8, 2007 3:13 PM

"poop the baby out" . . . . . how precious.

Posted by: knittingnurse at March 8, 2007 4:27 PM

She's lovely! Love those cheeks. Congrats to all of you

What a cutie! And there really is nothing like the love of big brothers for their baby sisters. I keep being amazed at how sweet & generous my grandsons are with their baby sister. Loved that remark about pooping the baby out! As we (me, my SO the boys & my ex-husband, their grandfather) were leaving my daughter's room the night the baby was born, I pointed out the nursery to the 3 year old & pointed out all the babies. I then had to explain that no, even though they were all behind glass, they were NOT in a baby zoo! I could see one of the nurses cracking up at that!
