Here are a few similar shots we have of Paul and Timothy in their first months.

Having a Brother

These pictures are all from June, 2010. Paul is still learning to be gentle with the baby, but he seems like he likes having a little brother, doesn't he?

First Day Home

Paul's long-awaited baby brother finally showed up, and . . . he can't play with anything. But that doesn't stop Paul from sharing various toys with him.

New Baby

It's about time to fill in some gaps in the blog record here. I don't keep a baby book or any kind of scrapbook because I rely on electronic sources. So, here are some highlights briefly chronicled. We had a little boy in May. He showed up 3 weeks early and arrived on his Tia Teen's birthday. We had a great time in the Mexico City hospital, and the Goldfusses were very kind to watch Paul for us.

Life with Paul

Hanging out with Daddy on the front steps


Paul jumped in a barrel.


It was quite funny. He was having a ball. "I'm swimming, Mommy!"


For all the grandparents reading this, if you had been there, you would have laughed too. We're sorry. We could not resist the temptation to take a few pictures. He did receive a serious warning later about the dangers of ever doing that again without us around. I think he gets it.


New big boy bed!


The animals needed to try it out too.

"Goes to the Jungle" Paul style

Here's Lilly the Elephant.


Banana Man


Captain Patch


Paloombo


And, my personal favorite, Mr. Missionary


The only downside to this whole adventure has been Paul waking up at night terrified of being bitten by a worm.

Wiggle Worm Song

And how's this for cute? I heard him singing to himself while playing with his toys, so I asked him for an encore for the camera.

Paul the Koala (thank's Meems!)


The power was out for several days. The computer was running by the generator, but we didn't have lights. Interesting situation.


I think the words "hog heaven" most accurately describe this situation.

The Train

Paul got a new train set when Grandmama and Grandpa came to visit. Actually, he got three trains and two tracks. Even with all the new trains, he gets creative trying to see how long a train he can create using his other cars.



He pretty much plays with it every waking moment that he can. Here he is squeezing in a few minutes before we left for church. This was his own track design.
