Cayden October
Karis October
Questions About Life/Thanksgiving Parade
Scene: A few days ago, I'm leaning back on my bed with Karis on my stomach, Cayden is sitting next to me.
Cayden: I don't know how Karis got out of there.
Me: Out of my belly?
Cayden: Yes, I think it was magic.
Me: No, it wasn't magic.
Cayden: Did the doctor have a wand?
Me: No, he used his hands and took her out.
Cayden: Out of the hole?
Me: Mmm yeah (where'd he hear about a hole?)
Cayden: I don't know where the hole is.
Me: ... (what in the world do I say now?!)
in the meantime...
Cayden: (in a more exasperated voice) I don't even know how she got in there. How did Karis get in your belly?
Me: ... (oh my word, what in the world do I say?) Ask your daddy.
he calls Brandon at work...
Cayden: Daddy how did Karis get in mommy's belly.
Daddy: She swam.
End of discussion, that satisfied Cayden...but for how long?!
I was in the bathroom getting ready and Cayden wanted to watch the thanksgiving parade and I said he could, he just had to ask Brandon to turn the T.V. on for him. Cayden came running back into the bathroom and said, "Mommy, Daddy got up without hesitation and turned it on for me!"

Blogging with 2
Sorry for the many days away. I did try and blog 2x before, but everytime I hit, "publish post" nothing happened. Finally, Brandon and I had 2 minutes together and I remembered to ask him about it. Being the computer genius that he is, he fixed it and I can blog again!
Finding time to blog has not been that easy. I'm trying to make sure I do my devotions each morning, get the kids fed, bathed, clothed, get myself fed, bathed, clothed, and I've been trying to do some fun activity/project with Cayden and keep the house clean. Somehow, it doesn't sound like a lot when I type it out, but it really takes all day! Then Brandon gets home and it starts Karis' fussy time. She gets fussy for 2 hours every night and it is so frustrating! I am so so thankful it's in the evening so Brandon can at least play with Cayden and I don't have to worry about anything else, and I'm so thankful it's not during the middle of the night when I'm exhausted, but it is frustrating that it has to happen at all. However, she only wake up once or twice in the middle of the night and it only takes about 30 min each time. Cayden was eating every 2 hours 24hrs a day and it took an hour each time because he'd poop and need to burp. I honestly don't know what was worse, Karis' fussy time or Cayden eating all the time. I really like that I get sleep now, but I'm not used to having a baby cry just to cry, because Cayden never did that. I'm counting on, "this to shall pass..."

Karis' 3 Month Pics





Karis had her 3 month pictures on Sunday the 7th. I was all prepared with her fed, burped, changed etc. She was so happy and smiley, but the picture place ran 10 minutes late!! We got a few cute pics of her in the pink and then she wanted to sleep. So we changed her into the purple outfit, hoping she'd wake up, but she just wanted her nuk and blanky. Aww the joys of picture day, such a stressful time! (I don't know why the last picture showed up so much bigger)(She is still wearing NB clothes, 0-3months are still too big. She's wearing 0-3 Month sleepers b/c she's too long for her NB sleepers, but she can't fit outfits yet b/c she's still too small:) )
