Its 11:00 am and my baby is still sleeping so I figured that I would catch up on some blogging and fill ya all in on our lives lately. So lets see....
We had a GREAT Christmas.....
Haylen got spoiled....and of course I did too. It was so much fun having a baby around for
Christmas, we were opening gift after gift after gift.....it was almost to much......
Na who am I kidding, I love being spoiled and seeing my little boy spoiled too.
Haylen got TONS of toys and clothes...which
I'm not sure I like all these toys cluttering my house up, so I have already shipped some off to grandma and papa's for him to have over there!! (
sneaky I know!) My favorite thing I got him were a FLAMES Jersey....
woo hoo....and a little
onsies that I designed myself. Its black with a little dirt biker on the front and it says his last name across the back...its
awesome!!....Yup I am the coolest mommy ever, I know!! Oh and I must mention that I LOVE my gift from Ryan, he got me the
Cricut and its the best thing ever...I can't wait to get back into
scrap booking and tear that thing up!! We also got a new printer, t.v. and computer (sorry no pictures this post,
I'm not sure how to upload them onto this new computer yet...but soon, I promise!)
While going home for Christmas, we got to spend some really fun times with our family, and
Haylen got to met
alot of special people. The best part of our trip home was for
Haylen to meet his great grandma
Ruth (my
Grammy) and his great, great grandpa Ken (
Ryan's Great Grandpa!) who is 97 years old!!! It was so special to see them together, Grandpa Ken was SO Proud to have a great great grandson. As was my grandma to met my little guy.
In
Haylen news....He's now 15 Weeks old and has a few new tricks.
1)He pulls his soother outta his mouth and gets mad at me...... he tries to put it back in by himself now and its so funny....after struggling for a bit, poking himself in the eyes, ears, and nose, he eventually finds his mouth!!
2)He pulls his hair and gets mad at me.....He doesn't realize that he is the one hurting himself, so he had his first haircut booked for Friday....yes, 3 months old and already needs a haircut......... I have an shaggy monkey for a son.
3)He likes tummy time now, and holds his head up very very well while on his tummy.
4) He wakes up every 2 hours in the night now.....yes, every 2 hours.....
ugh my baby started sleeping 7 hours straight at night when he was 7 weeks old, and did that for about a month and a half, and now he's up every 2 hours......what the heck eh?!?! Well because of this I tried feeding him some rice cereal thinking that maybe he wasn't getting enough milk from me (
I'm only breastfeeding him) and well since I started feeding him that he is sleeping for 3 hours at a time....better then 2 I guess. So we will see if this really does help or not. I'm not a big fan of feeding him the rice cereal so early, I only wanted to nurse him until he was 6 months....but if he's still hungry and needs more
I'm not gonna starve the poor little man. If Anybody has any other suggestions as to why he may be waking up more, I would love to hear them.
5) He sits in his
bumbo and loves it now. Its so cute to see him looking around like such a big boy
Well
that's about all that has been up with us!! We had a great time visiting everyone and enjoying the holidays but it's so nice to be back home and back into our
routine!!
Tons of Christmas and other photos to come next post...promise!
