Milestones

This newest milestone happened upon our family by accident last night. Neither Brandon or I remembered to put Kameryn in a diaper before putting her to bed. Kameryn has been potty trained for quite a while now, but nap time and bedtime have never been her expertise. So to save us in sheet washing, Kami sleeps in a diaper. As I aforementioned, we forgot last night, and SURPRISE!! instead of waking up to a disaster, Kameryn woke up dry as can be. GO KAMI G!!! Of course, I am taking this as more of a fluke than a revelation of things to come and so she will be going to bed in a diaper tonight. But, I will pay special mind to the condition of her diaper from now on, if she's dry repeatedly, we may have reached a turning point.
Another fun milestone, Cooper is walking like crazy! He has been for quite a while now but, I guess I have just never posted about it. He is a madman on feet. I am coming to find that boys are A LOT of work. He's crazy, always into everything, darting from one place to another, and making messes like a tornado! Got to love boys. He is also really mischievous and adventurous. Kami was never so daring. At this point, I am almost hoping for a little girl, I don't know if I could handle the terror that would be two little guys. Of course, it would be fun, just crazy. I already feel like I need another set of eyes because I am getting whiplash from always searching for him. What will I do with 3 kids. I'm just glad I had Kami first. She is such a big help and she has such a nurturing personality. She is always helping me with everything, cooking, cleaning, Cooper... the list goes on. She is such a good big sister, always looking out for her brother. I am lucky to have her.
Oh, and one last milestone. I have not been paying very close attention to this pregnancy (as far as how far along I am, etc.) But I am starting to notice recurrences in my pregnancies, such as my eye twitching, and it got me wondering, how far along am I exactly. Well, the other night, I had an experience that made me go: "Wait! No way!" Guess what, YES WAY! I felt my baby move! It was SOOO awesome. It was just the fluttering feeling but it was unmistakable. So, I looked it up, and I am 16 weeks along. Crazy! I thought I was only 13 or 14 (Like I said, I am not keeping very good track) Anyway, it was so much fun. I went clothes shopping yesterday and walked through all the baby clothes. I am so excited for this little one! I cannot (but can) wait.

  2. Congratulations!!! On dry bed nights & baby movements...now the boy in-between, I understand! My first son before he was a year old, opened the oven door, climbed on it, and was pulling elements off the stove, throwing them to the floor....I heard the noise....I understand crazy things. I think you need more focus on that baby....movement is wonderful.
