Not so Wordless Wednesday....

Look for lots of new posts in the days to come! This pictures describes just how we've been.... all BUSY! I've got lots of catching up to do!

4 FRIENDS & 4 BABIES in 4 MONTHS

Kelly & Kolton, Heather & Hadleigh, Karen & Austin, Amanda & Kade

A few weeks ago, we had our 2nd playdate of the 4 Friends & 4 Babies group! For those of you that do not know, when I was in high school there were four of us girls who were pretty close throughout our 4 years there. Well, in the 10 years since we graduated we've remained friends, and needless to say we all had children this year. So that makes FOUR friends with FOUR babies all within FOUR months of each other! Kade is the oldest, followed by Kolton, Austin, and sweet little Hadleigh! Poor little girl may never have a chance, but hopefully she will have 3 big "brothers"!

Anyway, we always have a super fun time playing with each others kiddos, sharing parenting/life stories, remembering things from "back in the day," & enjoying everyone's yummy food! We can't wait for September to roll around for our 3rd one!

Wordless Wednesday.....

Happy 5 Months Kade!

Happy 5 Month Birthday Kade!!!



My Lil Kadester - Once again mommy will say it, I can't believe you are already 5 months old. These past five months have completely flown by. You are doing new things and growing everyday. Every day, you amaze Daddy & I. I could sit & hold you for hours on end rubbing my face against your soft hair while you sleep.You are becoming such a little boy and not so much my tiny little baby anymore. I'm sad to see you grow up so fast, but I can't wait to see what the future holds for you.

Kade's 5 Month Stats: 

Weight: 14lbs 8oz (At 4m 3wks)

Height: 25 inches (At 4m 3wks)

Eating Patterns: 

5 ounces of Formula (Similac Sensitive Spit-Up) every 3-4 hours with

rice cereal / baby food at every other feeding

Sleeping Patterns:

- Still in your pack & play right next to mommy's side of the bed.

(although Daddy wants to move you to your big bed, but Mommy is far from ready)

- Still roughly 9-10 hrs straight at night

- Still only a baby who takes power naps throughout the day.

Clothing / Diaper Size:

- still comfortably wearing Size 1 diapers & Newborn / 0-3 clothes

Milestones / Odd's & Ends:

- you love to drink out of big people cups & especially if they have a straw in them;

however, you can't drink out of a sippy yet

- You consistently roll over from one side to the other

- you continue to love your baths

- you now use a sit-up bath seat to take your baths in

- you have grown too big for the head support in your carseat

- you have really started to love your toys

- you have become a constant thumb sucker / finger chewer

- you still love to be rocked to sleep by mommy

- You love to chew on your toes

- You have developed a problem with spitting up profusely, so we are seeing a specialist for that.
