Weekly Adventures

I really don't seem to know what day it is. They are all seeming to run together...pretty much my day consists of sleeping, feeding Katy and changing her diapers!!! Chuck is in heaven having both of us home all the time. He doesn't quite know what to do with himself. We usually find him going up to bed without us because he is so tired!

So not much to update you on but here are some pictures of our recent adventures...

Gettin' ready to hit the town. Steve is good to plan us a "daily activity"....mostly so he doesn't get stir crazy! I am perfectly content hanging around and taking naps, but Steve is not one to sit around! 

Last Friday Katy and I headed up to Perry to visit my sister Britney and her fam. TJ and Gage were so cute with Katy!!! They just wanted to hold her the whole time. We actually went up there to make Katy's announcement (I will post that later because I just sent them out in the mail, so I don't want to ruin the surprise). 

Also we went to Dr. Schmidt last week and he noticed that Katy was not turning her neck to one side. He said that we needed to work on bending and stretching her neck or she would need to wear the dreaded helmet!!! I was telling my sister and mom about it and they both suggested that I take her to the chiropractor. My sister took TJ there when he was 4 months old for the same problem. Sounded kind of scary to me, but Britney assured me that it would be a good thing. So I went to her doctor in Brigham City. 

Let me just tell you how sad it was to watch him pop her neck!!! He had to do it several times, and she was not happy about it at all. It was so hard to sit and hold her and watch while he adjusted her. It was the saddest thing ever. But I am happy to report that since that visit, Katy had full range of motion in her neck. Those forceps sure did a number on her!!!

Gage and TJ informed me of all the names they call "their baby". TJ says he calls Brynn "Miss Miss" and Gage told me he calls her "Princess Pretty Girl". Gage even told me that I could call my baby that if I wanted. He especially wanted to hold Katy, and was happy to do so as you can see in the above picture!!! When Josh got home from work Gage told him that he got to hold Katy and that she smiled at him!!! So cute!

As you can see last night we were all pretty tired, except for Steve who decided that it would be a good idea to take a picture!!! So we all fell asleep on the couch. Normally that is how it goes....I feed Katy around 8-9 then I fall asleep on the couch and Steve wakes me up around 11-12 to feed her again!!! Ha, it's pretty exciting around here! I am thinking that next week will bring more of the same but I will keep you informed!

New Do

So phase one of my "hot mom makeover" is complete... although this is not the best picture to see it. Katie (sister) cut my hair last week. Surprisingly she cut off 5 inches! Wow I looked like a rag-a-muffin as Steve would call me. She also darkened it, I think it's just a shade darker than my normal color. Hey it matches Katy's dark hair now!!! Phase 2 will begin when I can hit the roads and start running again. Although this breast feeding thing is working too...my stomach is half the size it was in the hospital!!! More pics to come!!!
