Sick Kiddos

Both the boys are sick.  Karson has pink eye and Kamden has double ear infection.  Keeping Karson away from Kamden is proving harder than I thought.  I never realized how much they are in eachothers faces.  We will have a nice relaxing weekend at home since everyone is sick.  Fine by me.  I should add they are both acting normal, so that's nice.

Karson has been doing the cutest things lately.  He spits out the funniest sentences.  What he says wouldn't be funny if an adult was saying it, but a two year old is hilarious.  He even says things at the appropriate time with the appropriate inflection.  One morning this week when we were leaving for daycare, he told all his trains good bye.  While waving he says, " Bye Thomas, bye Percy, bye Spencer.  See ya later guys"  It was so funny.  Karson's head bumped my chin the other day and I bit my tongue and said ouch.  Karson stroked my hand and really nicely asked, "You okay Mama?"  It was so stinking cute.

Kamden is 4 months old already.  He weighs 16 lbs 10 oz and is 26 inches long.  85% for both height and weight.  We've tried rice cereal a few times and I just don't think he's ready yet.  Kamden is such a good baby!!!  He is so calm and relaxed.  It will be interesting to see how Karson influences him because Karson is CRAZY.

Spring can't come soon enough.  I can't wait to get the boys outside and start going for walks.  Think warm thoughts!!!

***Yes, there are more pics of Kamden than Karson, but that's because Kamden stays in one spot and Karson does not.

Are You Out There Spring?

Spring can come anytime now.  It would be so nice to take the boys for a walk, or go to the park.  Not to mention, my house would be more enjoyable if the windows were open.  Anyways on to life...

Both Karson and Kamden have ear infections.  Neither one acted to cranky or ran a fever.  I took Kamden in because he had a nasty cough and raspy breathing and didn't want to over look RSV.  As soon as the Dr mentioned ear infection I had her look at Karson's ears too.  So I've got two big bottles of pink medicine in the fridge that both boys love to take.

Karson got his H1N1 booster this week.  I can't believe how much he likes getting his 'ouchies'.  He was so excited to go get his shot and was so proud to show Dustin his bandaid when he got home.  We were getting ready to go get Karson's shot and were in a hurry like usual.  Karson kept saying "My boot! My boot!"  So I felt his ankle to make sure his foot was all the way down in the boot and it felt right.  He kept walking funny and saying "My boot! My boot!"  So finally I took the boot off and what did I find?  A golf ball!  Karson thought this was hilarious.  Now, I'm sure he put it there in the first place, but he must have forgotten.  He was so shocked that it was in there.  He usually only puts things in Dustin and my shoe's.  This morning I found Mator in my tennis shoes and Dustin finds things in his all the time.  Crazy kid.

We are definitely settled into being a family of four.  Now I can't imagine life without Kamden.  Watching Karson grow and learn makes us all the more excited to see what's in store for Kamden.
