<ul>
<li>Size 9-12 month clothes</li>
<li>Weight: will have to wait for your 9 month appointment in a couple weeks</li>
<li>One tooth on the bottom coming in finally</li>
<li>Can stand up, and can stand alone for short periods now</li>
<li>Bear crawls super fast</li>
<li>Into everything already! </li>
<li>Your favorite place to go that you arent supposed to be is in the bathroom, going after the plunger. </li>
<li>You love baths and are much braver in the water than Jack- you stick your whole face in the water or under the running faucet</li>
<li>You LOVE your brother. You can be asleep in the morning and if you hear his voice you literally jump up and start laughing! </li>
<li>You like to wrestle</li>
<li>You dance and bounce and clap when music comes on</li>

You however... sleep from between 7-8:30 to about 6/6:30 with anywhere from 1-5 times a night of waking up. And the times you only wake up once are heavenly. Seriously kid. Get a clue. I'm exhausted. Love you... but not at 1 in the morning. Or 2, or 3, or 4, or 5.</li>
<li>Still exclusively nursing. (say what?!) No bottles for you yet.</li>
<li>You love your blankey</li>
<li>You are a mischevious little thing </li>
<li>Love to smile and laugh</li>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Kennedy refusing to lay down and fell asleep sitting up... then falling face forward. Lol! </td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Sunday morning started as a normal day... get up, fix breakfast, start getting ready for church.... time to put Kennedy down for her morning nap so I can finish getting ready. I nurser her and she falls asleep (as she always does), and lay her down in her crib- and only because her swing recently decided to die on me- and she immediately wakes up and starts to cry. I pick her up and rock her back to sleep, lay her back down... wakes and cries. Now if this had been a week day, Jack would have been out in the living room (or Lord knows where) watching TV or eating, or getting into something he shouldn't be. Luckily, it was Sunday and dad was occupying him. Frustrated, and just plain mad at my baby, I decided it was time. I was sick of having to WORK to put her and keep her to sleep, all the while poor Jack is left to fend for himself for 20-30 minutes. Not ideal. Plus me being frustrated was only escalating and for the sake of both me and Kennedy it was time! So, sort of on a whim... I laid her in her crib and walked out and the sleep training began!<br />
<br />
Day 1:<br />
First Nap: 9:00-10:22- Cry, cry, cry!!! Every 5-10 minutes Jacob or I would go in and pat and shush, and lay her back down.<br />
10:22-10:52: Sleep<br />
10:52- Wakes<br />
<br />
Second Nap: 1:40- nurse and lay down awake<br />
1:50-2:10- Cries then passes out<br />
2:10-5:00- Sleep!<br />
<br />
Bedtime:<br />
Bath, Jammies, lavender oil on feet for bedtime routine<br />
8:15 Nurse and lay to sleep<br />
Literally 3 seconds of crying then fell asleep.<br />
1:00 am Wake and nurse- no issue going back to sleep in crib<br />
5:00 am- Wake and change poopy diaper, nurse and back to sleep<br />
5:30-7:00 am- Sleep<br />
<br />
<br />
Day 2:<br />
7:00 am-Wake for the day<br />
First Nap:<br />
9:00 am- Nap- Nurse and lay down<br />
9:00-9:30- Cry then sleep (Went in twice to shush and pat to sleep)<br />
10:00- Awake<br />
<br />
Second Nap:<br />
1:15- Put in bed<br />
1:15-1:30- Went in once to pat/shush/lay down<br />
1:37- stroked hair and shushed for a minute<br />
1:39- asleep<br />
3:15-Awake<br />
<br />
Third Nap: Was hoping to not have a third nap but due to a short morning nap she couldnt quite make it until bedtime... and I dont want an early bedtime since Jack's is at 8:30<br />
5:15: Laid down- shushed and patted<br />
5:15-5:30-crying <br />
5:30 Asleep<br />
5:55- Awake<br />
<br />
Bedtime:<br />
9:11- Nursed and laid down<br />
Laid awake, no crying, talking and moving around<br />
9:30- Asleep<br />
<br />
Here's to hoping for another NO CRYING night! I can handle two feedings as long as she goes back to sleep! :) She's not as tired tonight though because she didnt fight as hard and had that third cat nap... so let's all say a prayer together! Sleep baby, sleep!<br />

I cannot believe 5 months has gone by! Seems like Kennedy was born just yesterday. Time has flown by MUCH faster than it did with Jack. I felt like it was the longest 5 months of my life with Jack (Ha!) and with Kennedy it's just been so much faster and easier. :) Getting pictures has been a challenge the past two months in her crib because she can't sit up yet but is super squirmy! She is such a joy to us, rolls with the punches, puts a smile on everyone's face, and I love being her mommy!<br />

There was a few tears shed (by both of us) but a big boy bed, new sheets, and candy were enough to distract him for the night! :) So far there's been a lot of asking for his binky but no huge meltdowns yet! <br />

<br /><span style="font-size: large;"><u>JACK'S 2.5 (almost 3) year update!!!</u></span><br />
<ul>
<li>Jack weighs about 33 lbs</li>
<li>He can put his own clothes on by himself- for the most part. </li>
<li>Size 10 shoes</li>
<li>Potty training was going slowly and then all the sudden in the course of like a day it seemed it started registering with him (or he just decided to do it himself) He will pee on the potty (or outside) if he isnt wearing a diaper, and has been going on the potty for #2!! HUGE improvement from just a few weeks ago where he would literally hide and cry when I would try and set him on there. He does however, tend to want to go outside in the lawn...ahem... "like a dog." Lol! </li>
<li>He loves to wear just shorts</li>
<li>Two year molars are trying to come through, ones almost completely in</li>
<li>Vocabulary is pretty amazing- talks in full sentences and there's really not much he can't say</li>
<li>Can ride a trycicle like a champ</li>
<li>Sleeps from 8:30/9:00-7:00/7:30</li>
<li>We just recently took the crib rail down so now he's in a toddler bed! Big boy! </li>
<li>Took a couple days for him to not get out of bed constantly- and the first night he was up all night and ended up in bed with us. Misery!</li>
<li>He still wakes up a lot earlier than you did in your crib, but its bearable.</li>
<li>He doesnt know a stranger- is super friendly to everyone. Which is good and bad! </li>
<li>Still loves golf</li>
<li>Favorite tv shows: Bubble Guppies, Paw Patrol, Fireman Sam, Frozen, Dusty (the Disney Planes one), and Big Hero</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This kid always has a dirty face and half his clothes on (or none at all! Haha!)</div>

</ul>
<ul>
<li>You havent been weighed since your 2 month appointment but I"m guessing your between 12-13 lbs </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You're in size 2 diapers</li>
<li>Size 6 month clothes, although some of your 3 month clothes still fit but are snug</li>
<li>You smile a lot and are starting to laugh</li>
<li>You've rolled over once, but don't really try to very hard</li>
<li>You try to crawl so hard when you are on your tummy and can scoot around pretty good </li>
<li>You
havent got on a routine yet- somedays you sleep 2-4 hours for naps, and
sometimes, (ok, most of the time) you take catnaps of 30-40 minutes. We
are working on fixing that!!! </li>
<li>You nap in your swing and sleep with me at night</li>
<li>Still wont take a binky or a bottle</li>
<li>You HATE riding in the car</li>
<li>You really like to kick</li>
<li>Everywhere we go, you catch peoples attention with your red hair and cute little face</li>

<li>You still take acid reflux medicine but I think its getting better</li>
<li>You love to chew/suck on your hands</li>
<li>Starting to grab at things and try to put your dangly toys on your playmat in your mouth</li>

Your
little personality is starting to come out. I can foresee a little diva
in our future, but I'm hoping you will keep your laid back attitude! :)
You make everyone you come in contact with you smile and I know that
will stay with you! You are such a cutie patootie, and a perfect
addition to our little family! <br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>2 Months Old!</b></u></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Super sweet, super cute, super loveable little girl!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You weigh 11 lbs 15 oz - 80th percentile!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You are 23 inches long</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You're in size 2 diapers</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You wear 3 month clothes and can fit into some 6 month clothes! </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You're starting to coo and try and "talk" </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You smile lots!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Your throwing up is better, but depends alot on what I eat too. No dairy, coffee or tomato sauces for sure.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You take most naps in yours swing and prefer to spend most of the evening on or next to me</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Everyone is in love with your hair</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You love your brother</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You like to sleep in the front pack</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You hate your carseat</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"> </span>You still wont take a binky</li>
<li>You nurse ok, but still dont have a great latch, But good enough to keep breastfeeding!</li>
<li>You are a light sleeper</li>
<li>I haven't got you into a solid routine yet but I probably should start- it's a lot harder with two of you now to get on the same schedule.</li>
<li>Most of the time you still seem to wake up 30-45 minutes into a nap which is frustrating, but sometimes you'll do a long 2-3 hour stretch in the middle of the day</li>
<li>A few days ago you went 6 hours at night! </li>
</ul>

Kennedy Faith Neighbors</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Born January 29, 2015 at 12:50 am</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
7 lbs 10 oz, 21 inches</div>
<br />
The morning of January 28, I sent Jack to daycare so I could have a little downtime to get a few things done around the house and do a few nice things for myself before baby arrived. I got my toes and nails done, enjoyed a nice Starbucks frappe, and then went home to do some last minute nesting and do some walking to see if I could get things moving! I picked Jack up after lunch and we both took naps and woke up around 4:00.<br />
<br />
Contractions started somewhere around 6:00 when Jacob got home and I enlisted his help in making dinner while I tried to take it easy. I started timing the contractions, but didnt think much of it since I'd had them on and off the past few weeks. During dinner though, some of them were starting to be pretty uncomfortable so I started timing them. For about an hour they were every 3-4 minutes lasting about a minute long. Sort of like how Jack's labor went- just all the sudden started out of nowhere! Around 7:00 we decided we should take Jack to my parents house for the night just in case, which he was stoked about, and I'm glad we did! By the time we got home, I took a shower, got my bags for the hospital ready, and by that time contractions were stronger and about 2-3 minutes apart. I still wasnt fully convinced I was in labor but I was starting to be in more pain so we called the hospital and came in. Jacob told me we needed to go because he didnt want me to miss my epidural! :) <br />
<br />
We arrived at the hospital about 9:00 and got into the monitoring room right away and got hooked up to the monitors and checked. I was at 3 cm. Same as I was with Jack when I was admitted with him! Contractions were now getting hard to talk through or stand up. The nurse said they would come check me in a few hours to see if I really was progressing and could be admitted and I could walk around if I wanted to but I opted to stay in the bed, and I knew I would be progressing fast. About 30 minutes later I told Jacob I needed the epidural, my pain was getting bad. He went to get the nurse and she came back and said I'd definitely progressed more so they would call the doctor up. At this hospital the doctor has to come check you and give the go ahead before the epidural for some reason. So they moved me to a different room and by the time the doctor got there, I was around 7 cm and in some INTENSE pain. This was probably around 11:00. By the time the anesthesiologist came to get my epidural I was about jumping off the bed wanting to die. He had a trainee with him, which was super annoying because it took FOREVER for them to get everything ready, and then the trainee didnt quite get it in right and hit a nerve twice which was almost more intense than a contraction was! Finally I got some relief about midnight or right before. My water broke shortly after I got the epidural and when the nurses came in to clean it up and check me I was at a 10 and ready to push. The nurse said, "Oh goodness... DONT PUSH!" She ran out and got the doctor and they rushed to get everything ready and in 3 pushes she was out! SOOO much easier than Jack! I was so surprised at how fast it was! She was laid on my chest right away and we got to do skin on skin for a long time and feed her before she was weighed or bathed or anything like that which I did not get to do with Jack so I was so thankful. <br />
<br />
Recovery was a lot faster this time around too, I was up and moving around just fine the next morning. Could not have asked for a better experience this time around! :) Well... minus the few hours of pain. Haha.<br />

It's getting close now!! Starting to feel anxious and nervous and ready all at the same time. I have a severe urge to nest but just do not have the energy or physical ability to get everything done and cleaned that I want to, while taking care of a 2 year old as well. Kind of sucks and makes me freak out, but I'm trying to except the fact that I'm just not going to get everything done I might want to. The next couple weeks are going to be crazy, i'm trying to take it easy as much as I can, but I sort of have a feeling she might come early! </div>

We got to see our little girl sticking her tongue in and out, swallowing, and hiccuping in my belly during the ultrasound! She was pretty content hanging out in there and is laying horizontally. We told the tech we didnt want to find out during the ultrasound but wanted to wait to find out with friends and family later that night. So she hid it from us and wrote it on a piece of paper and put all the pictures on a disc for us to view later. It's a little disconcerting that the tech put a question mark on the gender shots- but comparing it to Jack's it definitely looks much different. haha! I wasn't too impressed by this hospital's ultrasound room/tech, and even the clarity of the photo's, but oh well. Baby looks happy and healthy so that is all that matters. <br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">This was Jack's gender shot! A slight difference. :) </td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I took the piece of paper to the store and picked out a boy outfit and a girl outfit and told the clerk to open the piece of paper and wrap whichever gender was written on that paper and that I was going to open it later!<br />
<br />
We had a small group of friends and family over- and facetimed in my parents and my friend so they could be a part of it too! Jack helped us open the present, which I think he thought was for him, and at first he was excited and hugged my neck as everyone cheered that it was a girl, and then he burst out in tears. So funny! I dont know if he got scared, was upset it wasnt a toy for him, or if he was just disappointed it was a girl. Haha! Never the less, it was classic. I wish we had gotten it on video- totally would've made Funniest Home Videos for sure! :)<br />

I am ready to start doing some serious nesting and getting the baby's room ready! But I always get a little nervous before the ultrasound... just praying that baby is healthy and growing and thriving! That is all that really matters. And as much as I'm looking forward to another little one, I am sad to see the end of the time with just me and Jack come to an end. It will be an adjustment for us all, and won't be easy I'm sure, but in the end, Jack will love growing up with a brother or sister as I did. There's nothing like sibling relationships! </div>

Maternity Clothes? Definitely maternity pants for work clothes now. <br />
<br />
Sleep? Better, but restless leg is starting and I can't have caffeine or chocolate close to bedtime or it's a disaster! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gender?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dont know yet- one more month!<br />
<br />
Best Moment This Week? Technically it was last week, but Jacob brought home a super sweet, soft baby blanket from a cool boutique he found on his work trip. :) <br />
<br />
Food Cravings? Pop and salty chips</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Food Aversions? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't quite figure out what sounds good ever yet.
And when I do make or get something, sometimes it doesnt taste good.
Lol! </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
What I'm Looking Forward To: Feeling baby move more- I think I've felt it a little bit here and there but not certain yet. The movement has been very different this time around and is starting to freak me out that I'm not feeling kicks like I did with Jack this early. Also looking forward to finding out the gender in a month!!!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Emotions:
Just like last time around my patience has faded. And I can't mask how
I'm feeling very well. Whatever I'm feeling, it shows!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Symptoms: Get tired easily. Can't eat a ton- get full fast. Restless leg, vericose veins (ugh- didn't have to deal with this last time around and this time it sucks!), out of breath easier, carpel tunnel (had this last time around too)<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel so incredibly blessed to be pregnant again. I love being pregnant and really enjoyed it last time around. So far, it's been a fairly low key pregnancy. I've had the usual nausea, exhaustion, insomnia type stuff but it's all worth it. With this one, I found out I was pregnant very early on. I think right around 4 weeks! When I took the test I was shocked it was positive but so excited! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first trimester is always scary and I pray constantly that this little baby is growing and thriving each and every day. Once you lose a baby that fear is always there but we saw our little one dancing around at 8 weeks and heard the heartbeat then! Still, it is SO hard to wait each month to hear it again and get some reassurance. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How Far Long? 11 Weeks, 4 Days
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Size of Baby? About the size of a Lime<br />
<br />
Total Weight Gain? Oh gosh, I haven't even gone there yet this time around...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Maternity Clothes? Sometimes. Definitely popped out quicker this time though! <br />
<br />
Sleep? Insomnia most nights. And having to get up to pee at least once.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Gender?</div>

<br />
Best Moment This Week? People that dont "know" I'm pregnant are being able to tell now by looking at me. :o) So fun. <br />
<br />
Food Cravings? Food has been hard. This week has been chef salads though. </div>

What I'm Looking Forward To: Hearing babies heartbeat<br />
<br />
Emotions: Just like last time around my patience has faded. And I can't mask how I'm feeling very well. Whatever I'm feeling, it shows! I do however, cry easier at movies, songs, etc. <br />
<br />
Symptoms: Tired most of the time, by mid afternoon I am toast. Not sleeping well at night isnt helping that. I had some round ligament pain one day this week that was weird and uncomfortable. Peeing a lot.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
I can't believe you are two years old my little crazy Mr. Jack! You are my world and I cannot even put into words how much I love you and how blessed I am to be your mommy. Daddy and I both love you so much!!!<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li> You weigh 28 lbs</li>
<li>You're in Size 2T Clothes</li>
<li>Size 5 diapers</li>
<li>You're in size 7 almost 8 shoes </li>
<li>You've started to potty train- love to pee outside. If you are naked you will go stand on a stool and pee in the toilet all by yourself! You have no interest in going #2 on the potty though... </li>
<li>Everything is "Me" (as in me do it) right now</li>
<li>You hate getting dressed and anytime we are outside you want your clothes off</li>
<li>You talk a lot now and other people are starting to understand much of what you are saying. (or yelling mostly, haha!) Saying a lot of two word phrases. </li>
<li>You know the number 2 very well. Mostly from mommy counting to 3 before you get in trouble. Now when I say 1 you say 2. Ha!</li>
<li>Your favorite show right now is Bubble Guppies still (which you can say oh so adorably!)</li>
<li>You finally gave up your nighttime bottle right after your second birthday! </li>
<li>The binky might be a bigger problem.... one I am not quite ready to tackle yet!</li>
<li>You are still a mama's boy and super clingy to me. But most of the time I dont mind. :o)</li>
<li>You love your grandparents. You ask to see them everyday.</li>
<li>You take one nap at 1:30 now. On occasion you will fall asleep early or take two naps, but not very often. </li>
<li>Sleep from about 8:30/9:00-7:30/8:00. Not too bad! </li>
</ul>
