Good News

Destry's terrible baby acne is getting better! There is a reason why I haven't been posting pics this week. I'm not documenting my poor baby's ugly period. :( But this morning it's looking waaaaaaay better--less 15-year-old-boy and more normal-baby-acne. It was seriously way bad, I've never seen it like he had. So soon we'll be back to normal and the camera can come out of hiding once more.

Tub time!!

This isn't his first bath...sadly I was the only one around and I forgot the camera. But we can pretend these are the real deal! Destry really likes the bath tub. At first he got a little mad but that lasted all of three seconds. Thats when he realized that it was nice and warm. He actually fell asleep!

snoozing away....

all wrapped up and good to go! He even pooped in his towel riiight after this pic. Nice.

100th post. what an accomplishment

He's a smiley kid--just like his daddy!

p.s. sorry it's kinda blurry...my camera doesn't like taking pictures without the flash but I want my child to be able to see in the future.

A story and then some news

I usually go to bed before Kolt does and last night was no different. When he came to bed he kissed me good night and went to pull me closer to him (insert "awww"). To this I replied, "Don't! I'm in the middle of feeding [destry]!" Which Kolt then responded, "What??"

At this point in my complete and utter exhaustion I opened my eyes to look down at the baby and discovered that there really was no baby in my arms. Talk about trippy. It was a weird feeling--I would've bet money that I was holding my child.

For all the readers who are freaking out about now wondering where I dropped my baby off in my bed, relax. Turns out Destry was safe in his bassinet right where I left him an hour earlier. I was totally dreaming about feeding my child. We both got a good chuckle out of it, which is pretty hard to do since I was an hour into my sleep cycle when Kolt woke me up. Usually that's when you get angry Laura.

Just goes to show how much I'm feeding this kid.

Another clue to the frequency in the feeding....he weighed in at 9 lbs 6 oz today at the doctors for his two week check up. And is 20 3/4" long. If you're keeping score that's an entire pound gained and two + inches. geeze louise. This kid loves to eat. So he's in the 75% for weight--height and head circumference he's 50%. He's got a normal head size so that's nice. Just a fatty :)

so cute

The quality is pretty bad but that's because I had to scan it from a print-out from Kolt's mom. But it's still cute so i figured I'd share it with the class.

And for those who don't know, this is Kolt and Destry with Kolt's cousin Taffee and her baby Jaci.

as promised....

We took over 100 pictures, I think, but we can't post aaallll of them. I gotta keep some mystery because these are going on the birth announcement. But these three were completely beautiful so I couldn't help it.

Thanks one more time, Rachel. You are amazing to come and take these pictures. I had lots of fun and I'm glad we only had one potty accident. :)

Soon to be posted....

...super cute pictures taken by my personal photographer Rachel. So stay tuned!!
