Kallen goes for a swim!

Kallen went for his first swim in the lake this weekend! At first he didn't know what to think- but after he got used to it he was having a blast until mommy made him get out because she was scared he would get a sunburn.

diapers, laundry, and the list goes on

I find my self often wondering when my pre-pregnancy brain will return. I am starting to think it is gone forever. Now in order to remember everything I need to get done- I have to lay it all on my bed, then one by one I check things off the list. Here is an example:

Planner- call some of my clients, Bowl- eat breakfast, blanket-do the laundry, bills- who wants to remember those?, bottle of water- so I remember to drink sometime that day, Laptop- return some e-mails, Baby- probably should remember to take care of Kallen

I also am finding it amazing how excited we can get over a dirty diaper. Kallen had not had a dirty diaper in over 4 days and I was getting a little concerned so I called his doctor who gave us some things to try and told us to give it one more day and then bring him in. You can imagine my excitement when he had a huge blow-out a few minutes ago...haha. We immediately texted Daddy to let him know. The picture above is Kallen's face after I changed his diaper.
Wow, life has really changed!

Grandparents and Cousins!

This past Sunday afternoon the weather was AWESOME and Shawn's parents stopped by with Alydia and Brant! We had a lot of fun just hanging out in the sun, playing miniature golf, then ending the day with some pizza.

Alydia finally decided she would hold Kallen for the first time!

Ok, well here is this month versus last month. I don't really see as big of a difference this time. Although I can tell he is a little longer and developing a little bit more of a personality.

Shots- NBD

Yesterday we took Kallen in for his 2 month appointment, which included a little drink for rotovirus and 3 shots. He actually did pretty good! He probably cried 5 minutes at the most and by the time we got home, he was back to his usual smiley self! As far as his stats, it seems we have a long skinny baby. He is 23 1/2 inches long which puts him in the 75th percentile and 10.12 pounds which only puts him at 25%. No wonder I have such a hard time dressing him...his waist is so little that nothing stays on. He is finally starting to get a little tummy on him- someday we will get this kid fattened up! haha
