Hyrum's nickname was often Stinky.
My second born is more fortunate to have merited the name Smiley.
Abraham is a super happy little guy. He rarely cries anymore, and when he does he's easily satiated with either a meal or a nap. He's spending more time awake these days and loves soaking in his surroundings. Several people have commented that he's remarkably alert, though compared to Hyrum at his age he seems a little aloof to me. He's certainly gaining weight just fine. We'll see how much he weighs at his 4 month check up in a couple weeks, but I am sure he's no 10th percentile pansy. He likes to be held and cuddled, but goes down to sleep without much effort on my part: the perfect combination! He found his thumb about two weeks ago and has been sleeping 7 to 9 hours at night. His long sleep usually starts about 6pm, so I'm still getting up in the middle of the night, but he's a lot happier so I can't complain.
He's becoming a bit wary of his big brother, who either smothers him with love or tries to claw his eyes out. This isn't the best picture, but I love Abraham's expression. Here's one more picture from just before Matthew left. What handsome guys!

That is so great he is sleeping for such long stretches! Those brothers are so cute together!
Yeah, how these babies survive their older siblings!! He's so cute, Elianna found her thumb and I LOVE it!! It makes her a much easier baby! Hopefully here in the next couple of weeks Abe can start doing his long sleep from like 11-7, I'll pray for that!
Kylie is ALL about the thumb and has been since day one. I say, whatever works!
Abe sure is a cute baby!
