Big Boy

Tuesday was Kendall's two week check up. Boy has he grown! He weighed 9 lbs 5 oz and was 21 inches long. That means he had gained a pound in the less than two weeks since we took him to check his weight last!! At this rate, he's going to be eating me out of house and home in no time!!

As far as sleeping goes...it seems that we've taken two steps back. He was sleeping pretty good at night for a few nights, but the last few nights have not been so great!! It appears that between 9 pm and 1 am he does not like to sleep and is the most fussy. That sure does make for a long night. The past couple of nights I've ended up letting him sleep with us because I've been so tired that it's just easier that way!! My goal today is to take a nap this afternoon while he's sleeping so that hopefully I'll have enough energy tonight to stay up with him and try to enforce him sleeping in his pack-n-play. It's hard to enforce that rule at night when I can barely keep my eyes open myself. I've never been a nap taking person but I really need to start making myself take one in the afternoons.

My mom got here on Wednesday night. She found out last week that her boss was closing the office Thursday so that he could go to Disney World with his family for a little vacation, so mom decided she was going to come here. I think she has missed that grandson of hers. It's been nice having her here to help with Kendall. TJ went back to work this week so it's nice being able to take a break and letting her entertain Kendall for a while. She's going back to Del Rio Sunday after lunch and then we will be down there in two weeks for our diaper shower that the church is giving us. I can't wait to be stocked up on diapers!! It's amazing how many you go through!!

Last Sunday all "the boys" were at church so we were able to get our first group pictures with the babies. In this picture, Brady was 8 weeks and 2 days, Kash was 2 weeks and 3 days, and Kendall was 1 week and 6 days old.
