Kason: Seven Months Old


Seven months, my, OH MY!!  This last month he has really transformed from a baby to a little boy!!  I can't believe how much he has grown and chubbed up these last 4 weeks!  He is definitely making up for being such a lightweight earlier :) He is still the happiest little guy ever, but has definitely been keeping me up more at night lately!  This momma is in need of a few good nights of sleep, but I don't think I will be getting them anytime soon!  But that's ok, this little one is way worth it!  He is sitting up really well now, but not yet showing any interest in crawling, I'm sure it will come though.  He is now completely on formula (insert sad face) because of a number of different reasons including my supply not being a whole lot and David's new job with horrible hours.  But we made it almost six months with exclusively feeding him breastmilk, so I am very happy with that!  One thing I am surprised at is that he still has no teeth!  Fenna got her first two around 6 months so I guess that just goes to show you how different each little one is!  LOVE him so much, can't wait to see where this next month takes him!





And after I posted this I just realized that I forgot to do his 6 month post...mom FAIL!  Here are some pics from six months:

Kason: Five Months Old


Little Mister is FIVE MONTHS OLD!  Only one more month until he is half way through his first year....where does the time go?!?!  Little guy is still coming in a little under weight at 11.11 lbs, but he is gaining, so the doctor isn't too concerned.  We will have another check up at six months and I have a feeling he will be a little chunker by then!  This guy is still so happy and just the most easy going little guy!  He loves watching his big sister and Coney running around him playing.  He is still sleeping well for the most part, there have been a few early mornings, but I can't complain!  Love this little guy so much!








Fenna Mae: 18 Months

This little, giant blessing has now been in our lives for a full year and a half!  That just blows my mind! Most of the time it seems as if she has been with us forever, but sometimes it just seems like yesterday that she was born and we began this journey of parenthood.  Either way, we are so blessed!  Fenna is at the age now where she is becoming so helpful, especially with her little brother!  She loves to unload the dishwasher, throw diapers away, give me Kason's blankets and paci's, and help me carry anything that needs moving.  She says quite a few words, but isn't really past talking gibberish yet.  Some of her frequent words are up, hi, mama, daddy, Coney (almost has it, but we know what she means!), and uh-oh.  This week she also started saying 'thank you'!  She is always climbing, on anything and everything, definitely her mother's daughter!  Gymnastics lessons here we come!  At her doctors check up she was just over 21 pounds, and she carries most of it in her cute little belly!  Here is my beautiful 18 month old!

Kason: Four Months Old




This kid is just the light of my life!  He is still such a happy little camper!  He has rolled over on his own a few times now, but doesn't do it consistently.  I have gotten some true belly laughs out of him already and it is the sweetest sound I have ever heard!  As of yesterday night he is now sleeping in his own room, which makes me incredibly sad that he is growing up so fast!  Seriously, where has the time gone!  He is so strong and holds his head up like a champ!  Our only small concern is his weight gain, he is only about 2.2 lbs above his birth weight right now at 11.1 lbs.  He doesn't act hungry, and he has grown over 4 inches since birth, so there is a good possibility that we may just have a slender, tall little guy on our hands!  But we have to take him in for a weight check in February to follow up.  The smiles this kid gives are unreal and are so big that it just takes up his whole little face!  I am just enjoying every minute I can with him!
