Our Christmas Card!

This is our Christmas Card for this year, although we did not send them out. We went to get the boys pictures made for Christmas this year, and part of the package was getting Christmas cards so we just picked this one. I didn't want to send them out though because this is one of the pictures everyone is getting and I didn't want them to see their picture before Christmas. (I don't think anyone in our family reads my blog) They are also getting an individual picture of Hayden and Cayson. I will put those up later. I think they turned out pretty good. I just wish we could have gotten one of them together with Cayson smiling, but maybe next year.

Pictures

Here are a couple of 1 month pictures. Cayson went to the doctor the other day and weighed 10 lbs 3.5 ounces and was 22 1/8 inches longs. He is starting to stay awake longer during the day and is definitely more alert. We've even gotten a couple of smiles out of him. Also, I *think* we have gotten into a night routine. He is going to sleep around 11:00 pm and getting up around 4 am or 5 am to eat and then going back to sleep until about 8:00 or 9:00 am. He is also sleeping in his crib and not in our bed for the first stretch. Then we let him sleep in the bed with us. Once he starts moving around more though we will probably not do this anymore. For a couple of weeks there, I didn't think he was going to ever sleep in his crib. We would get him to sleep and about 5 minutes later would wake back up.



Now here are some pictures of Hayden. I'm afraid we have the future class clown. He is the biggest goof ball and we just can't help but laugh at him. He was totally hamming it up for the camera! Oh, and yes we have Reba on in the back ground. I think Josh and I have seen each episode at least 10 times but we watch it every night from 6-7 and 8-9.

1 month old.

Cayson is 1 month old today. I knew it would go fast, but it really doesn't seem like he should be a month old today. I think he is a bit spoiled, because he has been held pretty much 24/7 since he was born and now I can hardly set him down or he cries. I think he is going to be our cuddle bug. He loves to be close to us all the time and is just happiest when he is being held. Hayden is so independent and always has been. He would sit in his swing for hours if we let him. Cayson sits there for 2 minutes and if you are out of sight he starts crying and will stop as soon as you pick him up. He's a good baby though. We go for his 1 month appointment tomorrow and I bet he weighs 10 pounds. (He was 7lbs 8oz at birth). I'll add some recent pictures later.
