Daddy and his mini me

kaden and daddy playing horsie together on a sunday afternoon. kaden still is looking miserable as he is super duper sleep deprived. I had a hard time getting a perfect picture of his tee, but if you can't read it it says "my dad's band rocks", and was a wonderful gift from uncle tobe and aunt kerry!

easy reader....captured!

chad took this video the other night of kaden wanting to read with me.

I know I have not posted much this weekend, we have been tackling some of the little man's sleep issues, and it has definitely been a struggle. We all had a restful night last night, so we are hoping we are back on the good foot...at least for now.

bad things are bound to happen...

when you dress your son in leg warmers.

I bought a few pairs of these baby legs that are all the rage, and I think even I am starting to realize they are a bit ridiculous (esp for boys!).

I put these on my little guy before going for a walk, cause I thought his legs might be a little chilly. Kaden can't figure out if he likes walks yet. He stared at the sky and the side of his stroller for the first half of the walk, and then screamed bloody murder on the entire way home, with me running like a crazy woman with the stroller to get home as fast as possible.

I parked the stroller at the house and rushed to get him out of it....in doing so, I somehow managed to bump his little head on the metal umbrella we happened to be standing underneath. He screamed like nothing I have ever heard before, a heartwrenching painful scream. I rushed him upstairs to our cozy nest (meanwhile the two neighbors that barely speak english are screaming "baby ok?" "maybe he is wet?") calmed him down, checked him for bumps and bruises, which thankfully were nonexistent. I called the pediatrician, and she said to just keep an eye on him...and that's exactly what I did. I held the little guy for a good 7 hours, and every once in a while I would walk in front of the mirror so that I could check out his head while holding him, and make sure his breathing pattern was normal. Neurotic? oh yes....I am starting to realize that motherhood+klutziness=insane anxiety.

I think I will leave the baby legs off from now on.go for shorter walks.and remember to breathe a little more often....

kaden and his super cozy pants

I recently discovered this adorable baby site that has the COZIEST clothes for tiny ones. They don't have a huge selection, but the colors are fun and I think I may be getting a pair of these precious pants in every color!

easy reader

kaden and I have been having reading time in the afternoons...he absolutely LOVES Dr Seuss books! He talks and ooooohs and aaaahs and kicks his legs and shakes his fists. I have attempted to take him to storytime at the library twice now, but both times he has had an emotional meltdown upon entering the peaceful and quiet library. I think he is comfier in our cozy little cave at home. I'm not giving up though, I will so keep trying!

some randoms

I have been trying to take pictures every day of the little man and his many expressions...these are just a few "recents" that make my heart skip a beat 1,000 times...

how is he two months already?

today is mr kaden's two month old birthday and I am amazed wondering where the last two months went. I think I was in complete shock and awe of the entire experience, and just now I am able to finally take a look at him and understand that he is the little nugget that was growing in my belly all along...and I find myself absolutely smitten by this little man.


kaden had a tough day on his two month birthday....he had an intense sleep day yesterday, and because of it, he forgot to take naps for the majority of the day, and by the time I got him ready in his two month old outfit, he was NOT having it, and had this little look plastered on his precious face.




he has grown up so much over the last two months, he has such a little personality already! I can't imagine how he will grow in the next month!
