9 Months

This cute kid is already 9 months old!! 




His favorite thing to do is EAT!  Every time I eat something he crawls over and opens his mouth.  He loves: Sweet potatoes, banana's, mashed potatoes, peas, broccoli, avocado, oatmeal, yogurt.

He loved Thanksgiving, since we went to my sisters house in the afternoon, then had another dinner around 6 at my in law's house.






He is my cute smiley guy!  He is starting to walk more, with support of the couch and anything he can hold on too.

He is a little skinny, so we are trying to beef him up!  He still fits into 6 month clothes and wears size 3 diapers.  He is a little momma's boy!

8 months already


My sweet little boy is already 8 months old.  Before I know it he will be 1! (And that will probably make me cry)


The past month he decided he needs to be a big boy and stand on this and walk around with help from couches, chairs, walls...etc.




He has started to eat more solid food.  So far he LOVES avocado.  He also likes carrots, sweet potatoes, oatmeal, potatoes, oranges, applesauce, rice puffs and squash.


For Halloween he was a sweet lil chicken!  We went out with my sister and her family

Right now he is sleeping from about 8 to around 4 or 5.  Then wakes up for the day around 7:30.  I a hoping for a longer stretch of sleep though, maybe next month :)

7 months

This cute little boy is 7 months old!  He started figuring out how to crawl about a month ago and now he is cruising!  He is also started to pull himself up on this and stand up!  EEkkk... he's growing too fast!




2 weeks ago I started feeding him solids.  We started out with bananas and avocado's.  He really likes avocados!


He is still a super smiley boy!

Half birthday


This cute kid is already 6 months old!  I can't believe how fast time has gone.  I feel like yesterday it was my tiny baby boy of only 6 pounds.


He is now around 15 pounds wearing 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.  He is such a good, happy baby and always smiling!


He has started sitting up on his own, but is still pretty wobbly.
The last 2 weeks he has started moving so much! He will be crawling soon. 
The other day I went to in the other room real quick and came back and he was sitting like this!
He is such a mommy's boy.. I just love it!

5 months


This little sweetie has been in our life's for 5 months now!  I can't believe how much he has grown in the past few weeks!

The other day he started paying more attention to his feet, then the next day he was touching them and holding them most the day.  Plus sucking on them, of course. 

He also started rolling about 2 weeks ago, then a week ago he started doing it non-stop.  All he wants to do is wiggle and roll around.  I think he will be crawling very soon, as he is already moving a little bit.

The past month he has been in a sleep "regression".  Needless to say I have been super sleep deprived for a month now.  I am hoping it ends soon (Fingers crossed).  I also need to start to sleep train him and wean him off some of his night time feedings. 

He wears a size 1-2 costco diaper and wears 0-3 month clothes, though they are going to be small soon and he wears 3-6.  He is such a tall boy!

I take so many pictures of him! Here are a few from the last few weeks!







Reading a book  ;)










The day he played with his feet most of the day






Baby Kasen is such a good boy! He is happy most of the day and makes this momma so happy!

3 months of baby Kasen


I can't believe this boy has been in our lives for 3 months already!  He is such a cute happy baby!



He only gets up 1-2 times during the night.  Its nice to be able to sleep a little more :)
He's in size 1 diapers.  He wears 0-3 clothes and still has a few newborn outfits that fit him.


His cousins just love him and always want to hold him.  Half the time when Conner holds him he wants me to take a picture of them together!
Brayden always wants to give Kasen lots of kisses.

 He finally has cute cheeks and legs to squish! Last time I weighed him he was 13 pounds and 23 inches long!  Seems like yesterday he was just my tiny, tiny baby of 6 pounds.
Time really does fly by.

He "talks" so much now.  I love listening to all his cute noises!

2 months


My sweet little boy is already 2 months old  He has been such a joy to have in our lives!





Lately he has been making more and more noises and cute "coo" sounds!





He has been a fairly good sleeper at night.  He gets to sleep around 10 then sleeps till 2-3.  Those 4 hours of precious sleep for me help so much!
He isn't very good at naps during the day.  I've been trying to have a set nap around 2 every day.  But he takes a few 20 - 30 minute naps throughout the day.   He eats about every 2 hours.  He is still in newborn clothes and wears newborn diapers!  He is getting bigger every day!  He finally has cute cheeks and legs to squish! :)
He doesn't like taking a bath very much, but he likes showers!

I just finished up another semester of school, my mom and sister babysit while I go to school.  Its so nice to have family close by to help me out!

Hello Kasen!

On March 1st around 2:00 am I got up to go to the bathroom, which I did about every 2-3 hours the last month of pregnancy, I started feeling little contractions.  They were only about 20 minutes apart, so I decided I should just go back to bed in cause it was false labor.

I should first state that I decided to have a home birth.  I am not a fan of hospitals when it comes to birth.  I wanted to be in control as to what happens and not be told I can't sit in a certain position and so on.... plus I wanted to do it all natural.  (My sister did it twice with no epidural so I decided I could too!)

  I got a few hours of sleep then woke up at 7:00 am and the contractions were a little closer together.  I decided to text my midwife and let her know.  I also texted my sister to let her know about my contractions.  She came over about an hour later to help me out.

His due date wasn't till March 14th, so most people didn't really think I would have him so early!
My midwife, Janae, said if they get closer to let her know.  I probably text her 10 more times within the text few hours.  Every few hours the contraction would get closer and closer together.   By 2:00 pm the contractions were about 7 minutes apart.  That's when I decided I wanted Janae there.  She was in Enterprise with her family, so she started to head home.

The contractions started to get stronger and stronger and only about 3 minutes apart.  Janae had not made it back yet, so she called her back up midwife and had her come over.  Liz came over, then Janae made it about 10 minutes later.  They checked me and I was dilated to a 5.

My labor continue to speed up from there.  I got in the tub for a little while, which helped.  Then I got out and walked around for a bit and it wasn't helping so I got back in the tub.  My midwife would pour hot water over my stomach whenever I got a contraction, it helped ease the pain.  Ray took over and helped me when the contractions came.  My sister Rachel was there and helped out too, they all took turns helping!  Janae also had an assistant there, she helped out so much!

The  contractions started getting stronger, so I got in different positions to help him go down!
Then I got out of the tub and went in the front room, where we set up everything to have the baby.  I thought my water broke when I was in the tub.. but Janae checked and it didn't break.  So she broke it and things started to progress from there.

Around 8 ish (I really don't know the time line very well) I started pushing.  Oh boy.. that hurt.

At 9:28 pm Kasen was welcomed into the world.

He was 6 pounds 12 oz's and 19 1/2 inches long.

I am so in love with his little guy.


















He is already a month old!  Time really does fly, I want him to stay little forever!! ;)
