Random Sunday

Duane is out golfing, Kason is sound asleep in his crib, and Kaia is passed out on the cold tile floor.  Sounds like a few free minutes of blog time!  Here are some random bits of information.

1. I'm way behind on blogging.  I started this blog so that I could upload pictures and record memories.  I need to blog about vacation, Duane's first Father's Day, and a few other things.  I think my biggest problem is the fact that I like to edit all of the photos I upload onto my blog.  This takes forever and I just don't have as much time as I used to. Maybe I'll get to it...someday!

2. How is it possible that my sweet baby is going to be FOUR months old next weekend?!  Where is the time going?

3. Is it weird that I bump Kason up to the next size in diapers whenever we run out of his current size?  We were so blessed to be gifted with lots of diapers for our showers, so I've only had to buy one bag!  Currently Kason is wearing size 1, but we are all out so I think I'll bump him up to size 2, since I have lots of them.  Hey, it's all about saving money...right?! :)

4. I have mastitis...again.  I swear, it is the most awful infection I've ever had (as if I get infections often).  Last night I was pretty certain that I was not going to survive the night.  Thank goodness for doctors on call even on weekends.  I got a prescription and slowly starting to feel better.

5. We've been working on tummy time here at the Gibbs' house!  Kason is not a fan, but as his neck gets stronger he will tolerate it more.  I snapped this cute picture of him the other day while he was on his tummy...


6. We spent a day at the lake yesterday.  It was a perfect summer day.  88 degrees, not a cloud in the sky.  I think everyday should be like yesterday..minus the humidity.  Here are a few pictures from the lake...




7. I really am not a huge fan of cats.  Over the course of my 21 years at my parents' house I had 3 cats.  All 3 were not very nice.  However, I think kittens are the cutest things!  My friend, Nicole, found this sweet stray kitten and had it at the lake yesterday.  Even my cat-hater husband thought this little kitty was precious!


8. Can I just say that Kason is a total Mama's boy.  The following took place at our house last night - It was about 9:30, Kason was exhausted from being out in the sun all day.  I was feeling like death warmed over (see #3).  I get home from CVS and Kason is screaming like someone is hurting him.  I stumble (literally) in the door, take Kason from Duane and hold him in the position I nurse him in.  He opened his eyes long enough to see it was me, and was sound asleep in literally 30 seconds.  I will cherish these times because someday I'll be that embarrassing mom! :)


9. Although Kason loves me, he loves his Daddy equally.  He loves to play with Duane and they are so cute together!  Since I have 2 sisters, this father-son bond is new to me and I absolutely LOVE it! :)


10. I love Instagram!  It's a photography app for iPhone and it has lots of filters that can add some cool effects to your iPhone pictures.  I love my SLR, but sometimes it's much easier to pull out my iPhone.  These filters make my iPhone pictures look way better!


I think that's all for now!  I can hear Kason starting to stir so that's my cue to end this post.  Happy Sunday! :)
