We've introduced Macey to SOLIDS and she LOVES them. After a long battle of trying to find the right formula for our little one, being able to feed her solids with NO problems thus far is amazing.

Right now we have her on a feeding schedule which includes: 5- 6oz soy formula bottles every 3 hours, 2 snacks of rice cereal 1-2tbs each, and 2 snacks of veggies 1tbs each. She also takes at least 3 naps daily in her crib. We are getting ready to transition her into her own room by 6 months old.

It is amazing how fast they grow. She is rolling over like crazy and is even attempting to crawl. She is a mover and a shaker and does not like to sit still, even while feeding. She has a strong grip and loves touching everything! She discovered her feet and loves to put them in her mouth. We also got her ears pierced!

Kasen is getting tall, almost taller than me and doing well in school as always. He got a new bird and has also made a scorpion habitat. He is definitely an animal lover like his Dad.

It's hard to believe Fall is here and the year is almost at an end. Where does the time go?

Duck Creek

We went to Duck Creek for our end of the Summer trip and the weather was awesome. It's hard to believe Kasen will be starting 5th grade on the 30th!!! Where did the Summer go?

BOUNCEU

The day before Kasen's birthday we took him and his cousins to BOUNCEU in Henderson for his b-day party. They had a blast! If you want to take some energy out of your kids, this is the place to take them.

4th of July

Saturday, we took the kids down to the festivities at the Fairgrounds. And watched the fireworks that evening, on the 3rd. Weird? I think so. It seems like the show gets shorter and shorter every year, we weren't  impressed. Good thing the smoke shop had some Sunday night on the 4th.

Kas took the boys and they said they were AWESOME.

It's so nice that Kasen has so many cousins his age, they always enoy playing together.

Life

Has changed in the past few months. With Macey being born & RMI being sold (which left Kasey without a job) it has been overwhelming, exhausting, and amazing all in one. Whoever says having a baby around is easy, is LYING. It’s a big change for us, it‘s been years since Kasen was little! It is so much easier when they are older. With Kasen we just hop in the car/truck and go but now we have to pack the diaper bag, get the stroller, strap the car seat in, make sure we have enough formula and diapers, not to mention the pacifiers and extra clothes just in case! But like I said even though it’s hard at times, it’s been awesome.

Even though Kasey was laid off it has been nice to have him home especially since Kasen is out on Summer break. It also makes it a lot easier with the baby too. It’s hard to believe it’s the end of June already! Macey will be 2 months old (I think she may be getting a tooth, maybe 2) and before we know it Kasen will be heading to 5th grade. This Summer we have been hanging out playing Wii, swimming, building legos, hanging out with Great Grandma Bloom & Great Grandma Gottfredson and playing with cousins. And not to mention taking care of the new cat "Moto", hamster "Sorbet", and sugargliders "Selma & Patty".
