Kamryn is 5 weeks old

Where does the time go? I can't believe our baby girl is 5 weeks old already. She is doing so well. She is really a great baby. We have been blessed. She is so beautiful, and I find myself kissing and loving on her constantly, and so does Rylee. She is still sleeping a lot, but when she is awake, she is starting to be more alert. She is getting stronger and really holding her head up a lot better. She is not really on a schedule yet, but she is going longer stretches through the night. I am only getting up once between 4 and 6 am. She is still fighting a little bit of baby acne, which is driving me crazy, but she is just a baby doll. Tomorrow we are going for more pictures. I want to get a new family picture and some pictures with all 3 girls. I am looking forward to that.

We had a pretty full day today. We started out by taking Rylee to school for her kindergarten screeing. We have been reviewing her letters and sounds. I wish I could have gone back to watch what she did, but I couldn't. When she came out, I asked her how she did, and she said good. I asked if she knew all her letters and she said not all, but most. So I kept asking her which ones she didn't remember, and she finally siad, "Mom, if I knew which ones they were, I wouldn't have missed them." I just laughed. I guess she was right.



After lunch, some friends I use to teach with came over to see Kamryn and hang out. My friend Stace moved to Las Vegas 3 years ago. I miss working with her, but I am so glad we have stayed in touch. Stace has two little boys, so she was loving on Little Miss. Maybe a little girl will be in her future. :)

just about the whole time they were here.

wanted a new baby in his house.

for a new baby in his house.



Brad went out fishing with my friend Chelsea's husband Danny this afternoon, and later on in the day, Chelsea came over. She brought her sewing machine and we had sewing 101. I have not really used a sewing machine since 7th grade home economics class. We started working on making the bands to the headbands. I was so excited they turned out great, and I actually did ok on the sewing machine. I am going to work on putting the bows and headbands together tomorrow. Thank you Chelsea for the great class. Sorry you had so much trouble getting it all started, but I really appreciate your help.

Hi Guys,

Can't wait to see you guys in a couple of weeks.
Hugs and kisses to all.
