Our Trip to the zoo

We took Kaylin and Jonathan to the zoo and met our friends Jess, Seth and Ethan there. Kaylin and Ethan had a blast, Jonathan is still just a little too small to enjoy it all. I got some great shots of the animals but Kaylin wasn't up for having her picture taken. She wanted me to keep taking pictures of the animals to show her. You can see the rest of the animals pictures here.

What a great sleeper

Jonathan is now sleeping about 8-11 hours at night. He goes to sleep anywhere between 9 and 10 and sleeps until between 6:30 and 8. I, of course, am loving this! It's so nice to get that much sleep again.

Also new this week...We've got laughing. Jonathan now laughs when tickled. Before it was sort of grunts or huh huh huh sounds. Similar to Beavis and Butthead. Now it's a full blown laugh and I love it! I tickle him at every diaper change just so I can hear that wonderful sound!

2 month well baby

Jonathan had his two month pedi. appointment yesterday. He weighed in at 12 lbs. and is 23 1/2 inches long now. He took his shots like a champ. He got 4 of them and didn't cry until the 2nd shot, even then he stopped when she was done with the last one. Kaylin cried more than he did. She was hiding in the corner telling the nurse "don't hurt my baby." The nurse said most siblings her age act like that or else they are up on the table being nosy and asking questions. Kids are too funny! I gave him a dose of tylenol when we got home and he was fine. No decrease in appetite, no sleeping issues or anything. *knocks on wood* Now, let's just hope he's always such a good baby for shots!

Mother's Day Out

Okay, so I'm still trying to find the time (and remember) to update.

Kaylin started at a Mother's Day Out program on Thursday. She will go from 9am-2pm every Tuesday and Thursday. I hope this time will allow me to get the house back in shape. Plus, she really needed to get back out there with kids her age, and learn and make friends again. She's been at home with me for a year and a half. She also decided to drop out of her dance classes. This makes me sad. I can only hope she'll become interested in dance again once she gets older.
Not much new with Jonathan this week. He seems to be trying to roll from belly to back. Whenever he is down for tummy time he leans to one side and pushes with his feet to try and roll over. I imagine it’s not far off.

We are swamped next week. Three out of the four of us are in Matt & Chera’s wedding on Friday. We’ve got something going on every day except Monday. And I think I’m going to schedule lunch with a friend that day.
Monday – lunch with Jennifer?
Tuesday – Kaylin MDO, endocrinologist appointment for me, pediatrician appointment for Jonathan
Wednesday – Chera’s bachelorette party that night
Thursday – Matt & Chera’s wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner
Friday – my day starts with hair at 11am
And then…Sunday we will be driving up to Tennessee to visit my mother-in-law.
