happy birthday, berky-b

5 years ago, justin and i went and picked up our first baby...

captain skeet berkley huskey

He has been the most perfect dog, EVER!

Most people think I am crazy to continue to take him everywhere I go even with two kids,

but he was my first baby.

He is my little best friend.

He IS a momma's boy!

I just cannot imagine my life without him!

Happy Birthday, Berky-B! We love you!

daddy and son's first fist bump...

Monday, May 13, 2013

Kason is ONE month old! Ahhhh!!! Do you feel like these posts are starting to repeat each other?! I mean... how can I have a 3 year old and a one month old! It just doesn't seem possible. I am just so in love with this little man... as is everyone else that has met him! Especially his big sister! She is totally smitten... which just melts your heart in seconds! Now... don't get me wrong. There is jealousy on her part. She still wants her mommy's one on one time, but she wants to hug, hold and kiss him constantly... and always wants to know where he is and what he is doing!

One Month Stats:
Weight: 9 lbs 12 ozs - 50% (7.9 lbs at birth)
Length: 22 in - 65% (21 in at birth)
Head circumference: 14.5 in - 37% (14 in at birth)

He is still a great baby! Only crying when he is hungry or wet.
He is nursing every 3 hours... ALL. DAY. LONG.
He has had about 4 bottles
He is wearing Newborn diapers
He is wearing Newborn and 0-3 month clothes
He LOVES bathtime
He LOVES to ride in the car
He turns toward Justin and I's voices
He is starting to give the biggest smiles to his sister
He smiles ALOT!
He is definitely putting on the weight
He has started taking a paci

Kason Havoc {3 weeks}

Kason turned 3 weeks old on Thursday, May 2! {behind as usual!} Where has the time gone?! I honestly cannot believe he has been home for 3 weeks {I honestly cannot believe I have gone 3 weeks with less than 6 hours of broken up sleep per night. Ha!} We are all so proud of our perfect little boy! He gets fatter by the day... and we LOVE it so much!

We didn't have an appointment last week, but I know he has definitely gained weight. I am guessing he is close to 9 lbs!

He has started taking a paci!! {This might sound bad for some people, but he was using me as a paci all day long. It was killing me. I tried a few different ones and finally got him to take it! Hadlea was definitely a paci baby and although taking it away was torture... those 2 years of her having it were definitely a lifesaver compared to the 3 days it took to take it away! Ha!}

1, 2 and 3 weeks!

Hadlea and Kason @ 3 weeks!

{and I didn't plan this picture. Berkley was in the room when I took Kason's 3 weeks pics so I put him in for a picture... so funny that Hadlea's 3 weeks pic included Berk too! It was fate! Ha!}

Aunt Donna

I noticed awhile back that I missed a picture from Kason's last baby shower. I had intentions of going back and adding it to the post, but then decided that Aunt Donna needed her own post! Donna is not even the kids' aunt. She is a friend of Nana's. However, she never forgets the kids... like EVER! It doesn't matter if it is a small holiday, a big one or a birthday. They always receive something in the mail... which totally makes Hadlea's day!
