What Easton Has Been Up To

Easton's been hamming it up for the camera lately. Here are some things he wanted to share:

He does a cute little arm pump when he says "All right!"  This is what I could capture.

Then he wanted to say that he is two.

And that he loves you.

This is him doing the letter "j."  When he does it he says "Scoop it, it's a "J"!"

He woke up with a nightmare during his nap the other day and finished his nap in mom and dad's bed.  It was too cute.

He loves his tool sets.  He calls these his Handy Manny Glasses.  I just can't get enough of him wearing them!

Kendree-2 months!

I know I say it on every monthly post, but I just can't believe how quickly time is passing!  Kendree is such a good baby.  She is content to be in her swing, the bassinet or just on the ground the majority of the time and allows me to spend time with Easton, grab a quick bite to eat, etc. 

She is sleeping fantastically, continuing to get up once a night after about a 5-6 hour stretch of time.  She even gave me a little "happy two months of life" present of sleeping THROUGH the night on Friday night.  I had to ask Ronnie the next morning to make sure that I didn't get up to feed her (you know how those nursing nights are a blur).

She is smiling--not a ton, but when you work at it, she rewards you.  She gave her first full smile to Grandpa, and I don't think he'll ever let us forget that.  She seems to be a little more serious than Easton was at this time, but her pleasant and easy-going temperment is well worth a few less smiles! 

She is still not a big fan of the binky and this week I may be forced to branch out from my "preferred" brand to see if she will take a different one.  That wouldn't be so hard if I wasn't such a binky snob. 

She likes to grab things, including her own hair while she is feeding.  I'll look down to see a big grimace on her face and then find her little hand in a tight fist around her hair pulling as hard as she can.  It's actually pretty funny (aside from the pain she is causing herself, of course).

Easton is doing better and better everyday.  He loves his "Kenny" and gives her dozens of kisses a day to prove it.  It's just the little outbursts of extra "love" that we are working on. :)

Just like her big brother, Kendree loves to be swaddled up tight to sleep at night.  She is an excellent eater and I'll be sure to post her official stats tomorrow after our doctor's appointment. [ETA: She weighed in at 10 lbs. 15.5 oz. (less than I thought, she seems so much chubbier than Easton was)  that's the 55th percentile and was 22 inches long (40th percentile).]

Now, on to the pictures:
Here are her official 2 month shots.  She wasn't wanting to give me any smiles and actually got more and more upset, the more pictures I took.

Kendree and Daddy

Hanging out in the bassinet (she doesn't like the pre-flash so she kind of closes her eyes--she normally has big wide eyes!)

Sleeping beauty

We love our Kendree-girl!

Playing with Uncle Adam

Sometimes Uncle Adam comes to play--and he does way cooler things than mom can do.

It's great to have someone else do the heavy lifting so you can dunk the ball every time.  Adam didn't even need to hit the gym that day.  Two birds, one stone.

Easter Eggs

Five days after Easter, Easton and I finally got around to dying some eggs. 

To say he loved it would be a gross understatement.  I'll let these pictures speak for themselves.

Easter

We had a terrific Easter!

Easton was able to go to a fun egg hunt a few days before Easter with lots of his little friends. 

Then on Easter day, he was very excited about what the Easter bunny brought.  Here he is saying "Surprise!"

And here he is checking out his loot!

And here is sweet little Kendree.
