I Love A Sleeping Baby

The first few weeks since Kyler came into this world he was the absolute perfect baby, slept pretty much all the time, and was just so sweet. Well he is still so sweet, but the sleeping thing isn't happening so much anymore. About two days ago he started being a little fussy and not sleeping as easy. I'm hoping it was just because he wasn't getting enough to eat, but for the past two nights I have been up with him from 4- 7 AM, the kid just doesn't have any interest in going back to sleep during those hours I guess.

Well after much rocking, swinging, and walking him around I finally got him to go to sleep yesterday afternoon. I had to take these pics he looked so cute!

Bowen doesn't let his little brother get too far from his sight, as you can see, he had to be almost on top of him while he played with his cars.

Boys Will Be Boys!

About a week ago, shortly after we got home and settled with the baby, Bowen was obviously bored out of his mind! So Tim decided to let him go and play outside in the backyard. I was taking a bath, and all of a sudden I hear water running in the backyard. I thought maybe Tim had gone outside with Bowen to water the garden or something so I paid no attention to it. When I got out of the bath and saw Tim on the couch I thought ok I better check on him.... THIS IS WHAT I FOUND!!

Bowen covered in mud!!

Then we had to go chase him down and hose him off

he didn't like it one bit!

Here are some recent pics of Kyler, even after only 2 weeks it seems he is growing so fast!

Our first days with Kyler

Oh, baby.. cute (that is what he says) Kyler's favorite thing to do... sleep Oh my goodness he is awake Well so far so good with baby Kyler. He is such a good baby! He sleeps pretty much all day and even pretty good during the night. Bowen loves his little brother and he is such a good helper. It's still hard to belive that I am the mommy of two beautiful little boys and I am so grateful for the family that I have been blessed with.

Baby is Here

Hey everyone! So yes the baby is finally here. I had a Dr. appt. on Wed. and I was dialated to a 4, but not having contractions, so we made the decision to go in at 1 PM and be induced. I must say I LOVED my entire experience at Mountain View Hospital! The staff was amazing, and my epidural worked wonders! I was in labor from about 2 PM and started pushing at about 8 PM, and 24 minutes later we had our little baby. He weighed 7 pounds 11 oz.and was 19 inches long, a little smaller than Bowen but not by much :) Things went very well, and obviously I am already home! So far he is such a good baby, and we couldn't be happier! Thank you for all the congratulations we really appreciate it!

Tim, Danielle, Bowen, and Kyler :)
