Growing up/Kyle

Sorry it's been a while. With going back to work, it's been kinda busy. Haven't been able to take very many pictures. Not much has been going on here other then he is getting so BIG. One minute we are saying grow grow grow. Now I'm like slow down. I wanted to cry when he didn't fit into his newborn clothes anymore. It went one week newborn next in between and now it's all about 0-3 month. He is getting to be soooo fun. Just ask my father in law. Kyle took him down for a visit and I received a picture text from him saying haha look what he does for me. Hayden had a huge smile on his face. He said Hayden makes it worth getting up at 4 to 6 in the mornings, he smiles the biggest then. He looks at you when you start talking to him especially when his mom talks to him. lol But I will say he loves a mans voice. Kyle can get him to smile so big he almost laughs. Here is a few pictures of him.



Hayden loves watching dancing with the stars with his mom.




















So I really hope my son doesn't take after his dad. And this is why. I get home Tuesday night to a phone call. It's Kyle, I asked what ya been doing? He said oh we went hiking looking for sheds. I said oh did you see any? He said ya I have good news and bad. The good news is we think we seen one but it was to late to go get it. I said whats the bad news? He said well as we were hiking I slipped in some mud and fell. He said while I was falling I somehow hit a tree. He said there was a branch that was sharp and it cut my head open and so I'm on my way to the ER. So I called about a half hour later and his brother tells me there are putting staples in his head. The cut is 3 inches long. Here is the before and after. See why I don't want my son to take after him? And I'm sure I don't have a choice in the matter. Boys will be boys and what they do for fun is beyond me.



14 staples later



What a big day

So saturday we took a road trip to see Lara, Hayden's birthmom. We haven't seen her sense he was born. She is doing great, she is still busy with school and friends. She looks great. I hope she could see how happy she has made us and how grateful we are for her and Hayden. I was suprised on how good Hayden was and how awake he was for them. I think he was just loving all the attention he was getting.

Wow time flys

You know I wish time would go this fast when I am at work. My 6 weeks are almost gone and back to work I go. Hayden is doing so good. He has been off his oxygen for about a week now and no more monitors. Mom and dad are loving it. We can take him anywhere now without cords. We went to the doctors the other day and he weights 9lb 7oz, didn't catch how long. He is getting so big. He is sleeping about 5 hours in between his feeding at nights. I'm loving it.
So I met the new baby sitter, well one of the many lol. And I am so excited. She will only have her 2 boys and Hayden which is nice. I love that she is always doing something fun with her kids, very active and that is what I want for Hayden.
Well here is a few picture for you.

This was after my sisters baby blessing. Yes Kyle is in purple next will be pink along with Hayden.
There tough enough to wear it.

My little farmer.

Dad ready to go hunting.

Mom is getting her loves

3 Month old today.

Wow time sure does fly by. It's hard to believe Hayden is that old. He looks like a new born and He is still doing good. A few rough nights but they will come and go. He is really starting to move his hands a stays awake for a little longer at a time. He also is noticing lights and moving objects. It's so fun to watch him grow.
Well I finally got his room finished, (thanks Layna for your help on the curtains). The cradle that he is in, has also slept all Kyle's siblings and some of his cousins and all most all the grand kids of Kyle's parents. It turned out pretty cute. Check it out.

2 weeks home

Well we have made it 2 weeks at home. Mom and dad are still alive and so it Hayden. He is doing so good. He is sleeping really good at nights (knock on wood) and is just an all around happy baby. The other day I went almost 24 hours without holding him with a company party and a baby blessing. I got home and took him from my father in law and I started talking to him and his eye popped right opened and looked right at me. It brought a tear to my eye. He knows my voice. He did the same with Kyle. Mmmmm I just love being a mom. Well here is a few more pictures.

He loves his new pillow, thanks Brit and Kam



Happy Boy





He loves baths, I fill the sink so he has his own little hot tub.



One week home today

Sorry it's been a while. I haven't forgotten you all. Just had quit a few sleepless nights and so during the day I sleep or with my little man. He is doing great except from 12-6 AM. Yes I said am lol. I think its cause it's so quit, where the NICU was busy 24-7. So we leave a light on and the radio and that helped one night. But anytime other then that he is really good. He has been staying awake for 1-2 hours a day and just looking around and smiles. It's great being a mom. Just to forewarn you. If you see me I'm not sick I just look it with lack of beauty sleep and no make up on.
This week Kyle went back to work and he has checked on him before during and after work it's so cute. He sure does love his buddy. I keep telling Hayden he is going to be a mommas boy and learn ballroom dancing and kyle gets so made.. Like the kid has a choose lol.
Well enough of my talking you all just want to see him so here you go..

These are his first pair of cowboy boots our friend made him. There even camo.



This is what 3am looks like



Our little gangster



So grandpa was giving grandma so much crap about taking him from me right after she got here.. As you can see he
couldn't put him down himself..  This is Kyle's parent.



First few nights

So ya we were NOT ready for only 2 hours of sleep a night. Lol The first night, you should have seen the circus we had going on here. We had him in our room and every move, every sound he made one of us was getting up to check on him. Finally at midnight it was feeding time and I looked at Kyle and said "there is no use for both of us loosing sleep". So off to bed Kyle went and Hayden and I stayed up until 3. We finally calmed things down with him laying on my chest and slept for 2 hours. So as you can see last night it was Kyle's turn. Things started off pretty good. He was in his own room with the monitor in the hall, until midnight. So off Kyle went and was there until I woke up at 7:30. We got up gave him his first bath at home, which he loves. And went to the doctors for a check up. He is at 6 lbs 13 oz and 18 1/2 in long. And now I'm awake and the two kids are out...
 Oh the joys of parenthood...
