Only 2 Weeks Apart?


Our good neighbor friends had a baby boy 2 weeks after Kaisyn was born. He weighed 7 pounds 2 ounces...exactly 2 pounds lighter than Kaisyn, but he looks so TINY compared to him. Kaisyn looks like he is 2 months older than him, not 2 weeks older...it's pretty funny.

1 Month Old























































I can't believe that it has been a month already! Kaisyn (and mom) are both doing great. He eats a ton and is getting so big. He's already growing out of his 0-3 month clothes because he is so long and his chest and belly are getting so thick. It's amazing how different he is from Skylee. She was so little and petite...he is definitely taking after his daddy...so cute! He doesn't look like a newborn anymore, and is awake and alert quite a bit during the day now. His neck is getting strong and he is able to hold his head up for a short period of
time...although he looks a little bit like a bobble head when he does it. He's starting to make cute little baby noises (Justyn nick named him Kai Bear because he "growls" a lot...especially when he is hungry), and if you put a toy in his hand he will hold it. He loves to look at mommy and daddy, and watch his mobiles. He is still sleeping good at night...thank goodness! He goes about 4 hours...and if we are lucky, he'll go an occasional 5. And the nice thing is, he goes right back to bed after he eats with no fussing...which means mommy gets to go right back to bed...yay!

2 Weeks Old























































Wow! I can't believe it's already been 2 weeks...how time flies! Kaisyn is doing so good. He sleeps 3-4 hours at a time during the night, which means mommy and daddy are actually getting some sleep...Yay! He now weighs 10 pounds 10 ounces (90 percentile) and is 22 1/2 inches long (91 percentile). He is awake more during the day and loves to just lay there and look at things. He eats more often during the day...I think because he is awake more, but I would much rather feed him more during the day and have him sleep more at night so hopefully this trend continues. He's getting strong...already trying to hold his head up and if he's holding onto your fingers, he will try to pull himself up. It's so fun to see how he changes every day...and I love his big blue eyes! I hope they don't change color.

A Cute Pose


Kaisyn fell asleep in this cute pose today so I had to take a picture!

1 Week Old...Already!






I can't believe that Kaisyn is a week old already. Time has flown since we brought him home. He is such a good baby so far...very mellow and not fussy. He is already trying to hold his head up, and he is awake more during the day...which is fine because he usually just lays there looking around. Plus I love seeing his big blue eyes. He is also doing really good at night...sleeping 3-4 hours at a time, which is awesome for mommy and daddy! I hope this trend continues! Skylee is doing better with him too. At first I think she was a little jealous and was acting out and being pretty naughty. Now she is pretty good, but just won't leave him alone. She constantly wants to be hugging, kissing, and touching him...which gets annoying sometimes but at least she is gentle with him.

Coming Home






Kaisyn is such a good baby so far...just eats, poops, and sleeps...he hardly fusses except when he is hungry. He is on track to being an "easy" baby just like Skylee and I am thankful for that. Skylee is excited about him finally being here and is very soft and cute with him...but won't leave him alone yet. She is so interested in everything he does. I think it is kind of strange to her and a big change in her life and she is trying to adjust, which is resulting in her being naughtier than normal, which is really frustrating me but I think once she gets used to having "baby brother" here and all that comes along with that, she will get better...hopefully.

"D-Day"


























































































Well, we made it! Kaisyn is finally here. He arrived at 9:49 am on Friday April 25th via c-section. He weighed in at a whopping 9 pounds 2 ounces and was 21 1/2 inches long...a big boy!
we are so excited that he is here and that he made it safe. Everything went smooth and we are both doing very well. We love him so much! (and I'm excited to be skinny again just in time for summer...yay!)
