River has been really smiling from pretty early on and as the weeks go by it's getting easier and easier to make him smile! His brother is particularly good at some of his own smile-eliciting techniques.

Brotherly Love
We're lucky that Forrest loves his brother, but like many siblings the challenge is keeping him from loving him so hard that he breaks something. So far everyone is still intact.
How to Breastfeed Your Bunny
This is probably one that will embarass Forrest later on but it's too cute not to post. When your bunny's hungry, you just have to feed him. It's only natural!
Across the Pond
Our first weekend trip with two kids was to New Hampshire. We made it through the drive so River could eat and sleep in the fresh air for a change, and Forrest spent his days catching salamanders and avoiding leeches in the pond.
Monkey Bars
Forrest's latest favorite is the monkey bars! Luckily he has a strong spotter to help him out.
All in the Family
The boys have enjoyed visits from a few family members who have been extremely helpful!
River's first bottle was a success.
Young or old, everybody naps. But not so much for those of us in between.
River is 1 month!
As expected, River's first month on the outside went by agonizingly slowly but also in the blink of an eye. Forrest loves his brother but is having a hard time in all other areas of his life. Being 3 and having your life change is not easy. River is now 13 pounds 5 ounces, and he can already smile, especially when his big brother plays with him.
River is here!
Poor second child, doesn't get talked about and we won't remember any of his important milestones. So this post is a month late but still worth making a few notes. River was born on July 22nd and he was 8.5 pounds. Lots of peeling skin and very healthy.
