2 MONTHS OF FUN


Hard to believe it, but KJ is more than 2 months old already and growing into a full-fledged baby, not a newborn. He weighed in at 13 pounds and measured 24 1/2 inches at his 2 month check-up. Growing by the day. Nothing can beat the big smile that I get in the morning when I go up to his room to get him out of bed. He loves to hear "good morning"!

He is sleeping really well. He decided that his bed time is between 9:30 and 10:30 for now. He will sleep for 5 to 6 hours, eat once and go back to bed for another 2 to 3 hours. Now we just have to work on some fussiness during the day and he will be golden. He loves to tell us stories and smile while talking to us.

I surely still remember what life was like before I had him, but I am glad that he is apart of our lives now. With all that he has added to our lives already, I can't imagine it as he continues to grow.

KJ'S BAPTISM

Sunday, June 15th was a special day for both Kurt and KJ. While Kurt celebrated his first Father's Day, KJ was baptized.


KJ did a great job, only getting a little fussy right before the water hit his head. He loves getting his hair washed, so he was so happy to have some water poured over him. Father Steve enjoyed giving KJ a mohawk after his blessing. After the ceremony, we went back to the house for a lunch in KJ's honor. We were joined by lots of family and friends, including KJ's Godparents, Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Katrina. It was a great day.

HEY, HEY HOCKEYTOWN

KJ celebrated this past week with daddy because his Red Wings won the Stanley Cup. KJ was a true fan, watching every game with his dad. He made sure that no one missed a playoff game this season, coming into the world on a day off and being an extra good boy during the games. Kurt managed to scare him a couple of times by getting excited about a goal while KJ was sleeping on him.



KJ is smiling all the time and can keep himself occupied for 10 to 15 minutes a few times a day by playing with his mobile and gym. He is also starting to sleep better at night, giving his mom 4 to 5 hours at a time.
