HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
This past weekend we celebrated Thanksgiving. We were VERY busy! Breeanna had a birthday party at an orchard Saturday morning. We then had dinner at my husbands mothers that evening. Then we had dinner at my brothers Sunday evening. It was nice to see family and have all the kids play together.
Kayden 8 months
On the 8th Kayden turned 8 months old. I still cant get over how fast the time is going by. He is a BIG BOY!! He must be around 23 lbs or more. I havent weighed him in a while but he is getting heavier everyday. I think by the time he is one or so he and his big sister will weigh the same. Its crazy how siblings can be so different! He continues to sleep all night, which is awesome! I hope its a sleep routine he keeps until he goes to college! He doesnt nap much through the day, but thats fine as long as he sleeps all night. He has two bottom teeth that are fully out now and oh so cute! For a bit he was sucking and chewing on his lip and cutting right through and bleeding. I think he realized what was causing it and stopped, thank goodness! He still chews on everything in sight. I swear he tries to eat even me sometimes! He still isnt eating much food. A couple cookies a day, a few spoonfuls of fruit or cereal. And I try and give him cereal in his formula a couple times a day. He is a LOVER of PICKLES just like his sister. So he gnaws on atleast two of those a day. He isnt crawling on his hands and knees yet but he does the army crawl all over the place. And he doesnt sit very well on his own either. He is just too wiggly and heavy to stay up. He spends his days in his bouncy chair, rocker, exersaucer and creeping all over the floor. Sometimes I fear he is bored and feel bad he does the same thing day in and day out. But he is a baby and before we know it he will be everywhere and into everything. So I guess I better enjoy it while it lasts!
Breeanna
Breeanna is doing great. She is such an independant little girl. And she is so freaking smart- it scares me! She comes out with a bunch of new words each day. Lately her favourite words are FROG, FARM, ANIMALS, AND POOP. Im so proud of that last one... not!!! She is learning colours, she can point out the colour when I ask but she hasnt said the words yet. She just amazes me everyday!
I have been doing alot of sorting and organizing in this house. Today I did a big thing and gave away all my maternity clothes! They dont fit and I wont wear them again, but it was hard letting them go. I nearly teared up after they were gone. They were just a big part of my life and were so cute and comfy. I know if I ever get blessed and have another baby I can just buy more. It just feels like that chapter of my life is over. Ya know?
