Natey Nate- 3 Years

August 2010- My two thumb suckers
August 2010- Happy 3rd Birthday
June 2010- 2 1/2 years
June 2010- Sweet Boy
Our sweet little Natey Nate, Tator Tot, Tator Man, Tate... you name it he probably gets called it! He is definitely our middle child in every way! And with the arrival of Baby Cheesy, he will be right smack in the middle! Nate LIVES for the things that his older brothers like and do! I've always been sad about this, because he bypasses things that other boys his age love like balls, cars/ trucks, tools, etc. We have gone straight to Superheroes, Mario (Nintendo), Power Rangers, GI Joes, and whatever else is too OLD for him! He has become quite the pal and shadow of Caleb and the two are pretty inseperable and play GREAT together.... at least when Asher isn't around! Nate has been in mourning these last few weeks on the days that Caleb leaves him for preschool and all I here is "Mommy when I go to school..."! I am excited for Judah to really catch up with Nate and for the two of them to become pals. They are actually the closest in age of any of my boys, just 16 months apart! Hopefully moving them into the same room when we move will help with that! (More on that in a later post!) Nate has a very sweet, although stubborn at times, disposition. He will steal your heart in a second with his little looks and his belly laugh! He can be quite mischievious and is usually the last one to fall asleep in the boys' room at night after doing his best to cause some mischief! You usually cannot find him without his friend, Lamby... his little white (er dingy!) lamb thumby blanket! It is a hard couple of hours when Lamby has to get a bath :) Nate Nate continues to be Daddy's hope for an Alabama football player! Nate had some issues this summer with hives and was getting them on an every day to every other day basis. He is the first of any of the boys to go see an allergist and it was determined that he is not necessarily allergic to any one thing, it's not food allergies, but just something we may deal with on and off for a year or so. He got pretty good at taking his "hives medicine" these past couple of months! We love our Nate! What a special little blessing he is to us!

The pic of him lying on the couch is precious. So sweet.

Can't wait to come watch him play against the Vols when he's at Bama!
