Kai is off to school....

Last week Jen went back to work and here are pictures of Kai's first day of infant care. It was hard for Jen to drop him off after being with him every day for 10 weeks. I went along for this milestone in all of our lives.



Here is a view of the class room where Kai will be spending most of his days.
It looks like he will have fun while we work. Let me just tell you, childcare is not cheap...



Each infant has their own crib in the class room. When you drop him off you have to provide him with a mobile, 3 changes of clothes, enough bottles for the day, diapers, wipes, etc.... we even bring some toys from home so that he has something familiar.

TWO Months Old Today

So our baby boy grows to be a bit older today and he is cuter than ever. He is talking a lot these days, or at least trying to, and every now and then he honors us with a smile. The tough little guy got his shots yesterday which was hard for Jen and I to watch but he took it like a champ. The first shot really didn't phase him much, but after the next 2-4 shots he screamed as loud as he could for about 20 seconds, then it was pacifier to save the day.


I cannot explain the joy he brings us but I must say that it is hard. Especially for Jen at night... He's up every 3 hours and there are times where he is up in between. It also seems like 5 am is his internal wake up time which is when i take over before I get ready for work.

A week from Monday will be our hardest task... Jen goes back to work and Kai starts day care. We are a bit nervous and trust me it will take a while for us to get use to it.

Constant Change

Kai is 7 weeks old today! We have had a busy couple of weeks. Last week he had some special visitors come in from Ohio (his Auntie Shelley and cousin Maddy). He had a blast hanging out with them. He even got to attend Brendon's 4th birthday party. He continues to grow and change daily. He has to be 10 lbs. now. It is so amazing to see how "advanced" he is. He has been enjoying plenty of tummy time and baby yoga with mommy.

Making Milestones

Kai turned 1 month this week! Time sure flies by. We continue to watch him grow more alert and active every day. Just watch the video Eli posted. How can you not love the little man, just look at those eyes. :o)

New Video

So here is one of the latest videos of little Kai. We happy to report that his cone head is gone!!! Enjoy.

3 Weeks and Growing

Well, it's been just over 3 weeks since our little man was born and every day is a new experience. Eli and I continue to just adore him. He seems to be going through some kind of growth spurt (at least we think so) because he is constantly hungry. Needless to say, I am not getting much done this week since there isn't much time between feedings, including sleep. Kai is changing little by little. He continues to be very alert and is really beginning to have more mobility. He is quite strong! He holds his head up, has a pretty tight grip and is already trying to use his legs and stand. Although it has been very challenging, we wouldn't change it for anything. Actually, we were saying just the other night that it doesn't seem real still. It is as though we borrowed him and someone is going to come take him from us. lol Kai also had a special visitor this past week, his Auntie Maddy! He has enjoyed staring at her and spitting up on her. lol I can't say she enjoyed the spit up as much though. :o)

Look Out Tom Cruise!
