7 weeks old!!!

Can you believe that this beautiful baby is already 7 weeks old? TIMES FLIES!!!! People were not kidding when they say they grow up fast. Before we know it, Kyler will be walking and talking :) We go to the doc Monday for our 2 month check-up and finally get shots so he will be able to be around other kids and lots of people!!!!! He is just growing like a weed, and I am guessing he is around 10 pounds. He is taking 4 ounce bottles 8 times a day, so he is actually becoming a little chunk. He is really starting to smile alot and has become so alert!!! It seems like these days he is awake more than he is asleep. I think he's alot like his momma and doesn't want to miss anything....haha! He is also doing really well on his sleeping. He usually goes own around 10, wakes up for a bottle at 3 and goes back down til around 7. The thing is that alot of times he considers the middle of the night bottle "playtime".

All ready to go!!!! He loves riding in the car!!!!

Kyler and Daddy on Fathers Day

My computer has been messing up, so I couldnt post any pics on Fathers Day, so here it is. Kyler and I made his first trip to Pickwick on Fathers Day morning to see PoPo while Lee baled hay. We left there about lunch time to come home and see Daddy :) We didn't do much but just hang around the house, but we still had lots of fun hanging with our little man.

Oh yeah, Kyler and I finally got Daddy the Ole Miss diaper bag he has been wanting fot Fathers Day. Lee has been dying for one to carry when he has him by himself. Momma will not be caught dead carrying the thing!!!! You can't be a Tiger grad and carry an Ole Miss bag!!!! That would be ludicrous!!! Not to mention the fact that my Mammaw would not like it AT ALL :) It has kinda become a running joke with my Mammaw, because if you know her she is a Tiger FANATIC. If you don't believe me, she has the tshirt to prove it. Anyway, I tend to make sure Kyler has plenty of Memphis clothes to wear and represent his Momma's alma mater!!!

The Love of Our Lives......for you "Auntie" Pudden!!!

So, my good friend Pudden cared to point out that I haven't updated the blog lately.....haha :) She wasn't the first person to say something, so here goes.......

Kyler is growing by leaps and bounds lately. It is hard to believe that he is already five weeks old!!!!! Time flies when your having fun!!! He is starting to be more alert during the day and loves sitting in his boppy and looking around. You can get a smile out of him every once in a while and it is sooooo cute. He has turned in to somewhat of a "chunky monkey" and is now up to four ounces eight times a day!!!!! This is huge, considering how hard of a time we had getting him to take a bottle the first week of his life. After an eight day stay in the NICU, every little thing that he does is such an accomplishment, and we are so thankful for a healthy and growing baby boy. God has really blessed us with a precious baby and we know He is watching over him everyday!!!! We go back to get our eight week shots on June 29th, and I am so anxious to see how much he weighs. After that, we can finally be around Nicholas and Lilly Ann and I cannot wait for them to all get to play together!!!

mini photo shoot in his bed

This sweet baby LOVES sleeping on his Daddy's chest.
It is the cutest thing you have ever seen. This is how we
get him to sleep after his "bedtime" bottle.

Already sitting in his Bumbo!!!! He is so advanced, haha.
Really though, he does a good job at holding his neck up by himself.
He can last a minute or two before getting tired.
I love how his is looking at Lee...he ADORES his Daddy.

We had to get a pic of Kyler with his first rainbow!!!!!

Doesn't he just look like a little chunk in this picture??

We have been really busy lately with baby showers and they have been so much fun!!! Saturday, Mom, Heather, Amy and I threw a shower for Kati and baby Colt and Sunday we threw one for Heather and baby Addison. Both of them are due around the first of August. There are fixing to be babies everywhere, and I cannot wait for them all to grow up together. After Colt and Addison, then we are awaiting the arrival of Marissa's Mattie Kaye, Lauren's Brooke Austin and then my twin sissy Amy's baby who we are anxiously waiting to find out boy or girl!!!!!!!! I cannot wait, because she isn't telling any names until they find out what it is. The suspense is killing Mom and I!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Lovebucket" is ONE MONTH OLD!!!

Kyler turned one month old yesterday!! It is so hard to believe, because he wasnt even supposed to be here until Saturday the 6th. He is growing like a weed and changes more everyday. By looking at him, you wouldnt believe that three weeks ago he wasnt having trouble eating because he has turned into somewhat of a "chunky monkey". I can't wait to see how much he weighs when we go back to the doc for our 2 month check up!! Basically he just eats and sleeps and wakes up twice during the night, which really isnt to bad (you just learn to get used to it...haha). Not much else is going on around here, just enjoying being home with Kyler and watching him grow!!!

Lee is really proud of his garden and his new baby cows, so I will get pics up of those soon. As well as new pics of Kyler :)
