Making up for lost time on pics...
What the heck, it was Mothers Day so what could be better then My boys's mother with my mother all in one picture? I am usually pretty camera shy thx to the 500lb weight gain in the last couple yrs but every once in awhile I try to get photos snapped with my boys so they don't think I was never around during their childhood!!
Grandma Vicki and her 3 Grandsons. How many clicks of the camera before you get a pic with all kids looking and smiling or at least not crying? Who knows, never happens for us LOL! Kaeden making a face, Kai looks concerned, and Quin just looks plain pissed. Awww Family Love....
Kaeden made Grandma Vicki a "card" that he insisted on coloring, sealing, stamping and addressing. He was very proud of this card and even slept with it and took it shopping with us until grandma came up and he could give it to her. What a sweet little boy he can be! (Note the devilish look on his face LOL)
A Few New Pics
The Three Amigos! Our '05 babies! From Left to RightKailer 9-8-05
Annette 8-15-05
Quintin 12-13-05
"Come on Quin, give me that ear already!"
The Great Crawling Stance. We see this position quite often nowadays... just waiting for him to figure out how to move those hands and feet to navigate around the room freely. Doesn't he look proud of himself?
Kai playing with Grandpa Mel and Mommy. Like Mommy's furry hair look she's sporting? Kai's post pregnancy effect on Mommy's hair has not been a good one!!! Thank god the hair that has fallen out is trying to grow back, too bad it has to grow back and make me look like I'm trying to grow a mullet!
Are They twins? Of course not people!! Kai is 3mo older then Quintin and they look nothing alike.. Sheesh....
Kai sporting the unique "Purple People Eater" look. Gotta love trying to get rid of the evil Thrush monster!!!
A new milestone
Since my update on Kai he decided to start pulling himself into a standing position :) If Kailer is sitting close to his walker he can pull himself up all alone. If you give him a finger or two to hold onto he immediately tries and usually succeeds pulling himself into a standing position. It's amazing how in the past two weeks or so he's become so steady on his feet and is figuring out how to use them to walk across the floor to get to what he wants while holding our hands. Kaeden loves to help hold him up and have him walk :) He's the best big brother and my heart bursts with pride to watch the two of them play together. Kai tends to slap or pull Kaeden's hair which upsets big brother LOL He doesn't understand that Kailer is not doing this on purpose and tells me that Kailer doesn't like him when he does those things to him LOL.
We are going camping this weekend with Uncle Jared, Aunt Tammy, Aaron and cousin Quintin so I've got lots of packing and lots of cleaning to do! I'm going to do one more post with a few updated pics and then go clean and pack ;) Hopefully next post will be more exciting, I just had to write down the fact that my lil Kai Guy is now standing himself up and I'm so afraid he'll be on the go quicker then I anticipated! Just this morning he pulled over a laundry basket, tore all the clothes out and then stood himself up on his walker within a few minutes of eachother *sigh* I think my immobile baby days are coming to an end.........

Kai's new adventures
I'm going to have to do some updating in chunks since it's been so dang long since I last posted~!
Kai has hit a couple milestones that are pretty exciting. He is finally over 14lbs which is extremely exiting to me as of last week :)Although he is still wearing some 0-3mo clothing, mostly 3-6mo clothing and the 6-9mo clothing is on the big side for him and he's in a size 1 diaper although next package of diapers will be size 2 YIPPEE :) Mothers day weekend (May 13th) he got his first tooth, bottom right tooth. May 14th he got his second tooth, bottom left tooth :) Lucky for me he hasn't really bitten me yet. I've been a bit on the sore side but I think he's just nursing more at night again lately. At least that's what I hope it is! Last time I said that we had the dreaded THRUSH...
The Easter Bunny brought him Wagon Wheels to try out as a finger food and those went over with great success. When the Wagon Wheels ran out we decided to try some KIX and Cheerios since they are more in our price range ;) He's had cheerios only a time or two but he LOVES his KIX. He's very content to sit in his walker and munch on KIX most of the time. We have also ventured into drinking some juice in the past month. He's had apple juice, white grape juice, and yogurt juices and loves all of them.
Kai is sitting like a pro but no crawling or cruising yet. He has figured out in the past couple weeks that he can throw himself forward on his arms/hands and get into crawling position and rock and wiggle but then he sits himself back on his butt before he actually goes anywhere. Sometimes this results in him moving backwards further from what he was trying to reach in the first place LOL He has figured out that if he goes forward onto his hands and knees and then rotates to the side he can sit back up and be facing a new direction... This is how he makes circles in the middle of the living room to see what he wants to see ;) When he falls onto his stomach he gets really frustrated and instead of crawling or scooting he rolls himself onto his back and screams til we come help him sit back up. Sometimes he looks so dang close to crawling or getting up on his own and then it's like he just gives up. I'm sure it won't be long before he's a mover and a shaker so I am trying to enjoy this immobile moment of his life before it ends all too soon! Last night for the first time ever he rolled over from his back to his belly!!! He wasn't happy once he got there as he still couldn't get into sitting position but Daddy and I were cheering him on! Probably sounded to the neighbors like we were watching a sports game of some type LOL
When Kai is on our bed he's a mover! Strange how that works. He scoots himself and pulls himself along on our bed and I have to keep him away from the edge. He also rolls left to right front to back and everywhich way to get where he wants on the bed, pulls himself up on me and smacks me til I pay attention to him if I dare try to sleep in and he wants to nurse LOL. I know that since he's becoming mobile on my bed it will not be long before he's mobile on the floor ...
They grow to quickly and it is killing me that he's going to be 1 in 3 1/2 mo!!!! Where does the time fly to?
Kai is my serious little man. You can tickle him and toss him into the air and talk silly to him and he'll smile with his mouth open wide enough to catch a whole swarm of flies but getting him to actually LAUGH OUT LOUD IS a difficult job LOL Daddy calls him Smiley and always tries to get the laughs out of him but it's quite the job!! He was the same way when he first started smiling... It took forever to get him to go from small smirk (the one that you could read his mind while he thought to himself "suckers think they can make me smile, I'll show them") to a real smile. Heck he still does that with his smiles too... Kai is the king of smirking and 1/2 face smiles. I thought Kaeden was my serious man, but I am realizing that Kaeden was MUCH more outgoing then Kai was. Yes Kaeden took it all in and watched every move as a baby, but he was also super excited when strangers were not around to apply everything he saw ... Kai is more content to take it all in, watch every move... and then still sit and stare at me while I try to get him to crawl or laugh or smile etc etc etc with that silly 1/2 smile/smirk .. I can see thought bubbles form above Kai's head and I"m not sure I wanna imagine what he's thinking in there LOL
Kai loves to be held. Kai loves to be snuggled. Kai still loves to nurse which makes me ecstatic. Kai loves to eat his cereal and jar food at night too. I love Kai and will update more, but he's begging to be picked up at the moment!!!
More UPdates on Kaeden and Life to come soon.... Also will include some new pics soon!
