January 30, 2009...more pictures of our kids

Things are going pretty well in the Tomaszewski household. Helena seems to be feeling fine, but she continues to have a cough, which means she is still contagious according to our pediatrician. She thinks using hand sanitizer, "clean", is fun so we don't have to worry about her spreading her little germies around.

Sebastian is still in the calm, sleeping, sweet baby stage and I am thankful. We were already having to bounce Helena by this point. He just falls asleep when he's tired, which is something Miss Helena Claire has never done. My biggest challenge is getting him to stay awake to eat a full meal. Not too bad...but I am preparing myself that this may just be the calm before the storm.


I caught a BIG yawn and a streeeeetch!



I think that's a hint of a smile on Mr. Sebastian's face. He's dreaming of chi chi!


Helena's first words when we open her door in the morning are, "baby, baby!" So...after a diaper change, getting dressed, and doing her hair she gets to see what brother is doing. She really wants to help him with his "passy"...I'm not sure how long we're going to be able to hold her off!


Sweet baby boy sleeping!


Helena also likes to give Sebastian "five". Daddy is helping Sebastian so he doesn't get clobbered by his well-intentioned sister. This is right before bedtime, after they both have been bathed so Helena was deemed "clean enough" to sit on the bed with him.


Helena LOVES to copy us...carry a purse, drink from a straw, put trash in the trash can, and work on the "puter". Look at that face...she knows how cute she is!!!


Sweet baby sleeping, again.



Daddy loves to talk to Sebastian. It looks like they're staring into each other's eyes, doesn't it?



Another big yawn...




How cute is this fussy baby? He really doesn't fuss much, thankfully!
