Busy!

Blog Post by Kati:

We have had a busy couple of days! Last night Chris and I went to the first half of the Timberwolves game while my parents babysat Callie and Kona! It went well. :) It is a little nerve wracking leaving her knowing that I'm the only one who can calm her down if she gets fussy (because she only really gets fussy when she is hungry- we are lucky!). But my parents said she was great.

Today Callie and I met my friend Kylie and her 8-week-old Calvin at the Mall of America for lunch and walking (and a little bit of baby clothes shopping!). It was so nice to get out of the house and move! We figure we walked about 3.5 miles. And it was the first time using our full travel system. It worked great. Callie slept the whole time. Here is a picture of her in the stroller. I couldn't resist taking a picture...lame, I know. :)



And finally a video showcasing crazy eyes, crazy hair (if you look closely you can see a little mohawk) and crazy hands. I realize the videos probably aren't that exciting since it is just her looking around, but since she is still so little that is all she does! So we gotta take what we can get.

We ordered a package of some of our favorites so Callie's aunts, uncle, grandparents, and great grandparents have pictures coming. We get to pick them up after February 1st. :)

4 weeks old!!!!!

Blog Post by Kati:

Callie Joy is 4 weeks old today. I can't believe it (I have a feeling I'll be saying that every time!)...but seriously...time is already flying by.

Here are a couple of pictures of Callie on her 4-week-old birthday!

I actually spent the day away from Callie for a couple of hours (the first time being away from her for more than a half hour!). I still have a bad cough (and Chris has been battling a fever for 4 days) so my mom came over and encouraged us to go get checked out while she baby-sat Callie (thanks Mom!). We went to Target Minute Clinic at first and of course the nurse thought Chris was fine and that I either had bronchitis or pneumonia. So I went to my clinic and saw a doctor who said I didn't have either- just a viral infection of some kind that needs to work itself out. Whew! At least I know it isn't anything to worry about! And I'm VERY thankful Callie hasn't gotten sick so far...thank goodness for the good stuff in breast milk!

Tonight we went back to Target to get Callie's one month photos taken. They turned out really cute and we'll be getting a website link to share the pictures so as soon as I get that I'll post it!

And one more cute picture from this week because it is so darn adorable:

Another video...More sickness

Blog Post by Kati:

Well, Chris managed to get what I have had all week...fever and a little bit of a cough. No fun. Hopefully Callie will be fine. She's been eating really well so she's been getting all kinds of good stuff from my milk. :)

We watched the Vikings game today- SKOL!!! Our friends Dave and Cherilyn came over and so Callie had a lot of love and attention today. So did Kona...but not as much! Kona was lucky enough to go on a long adventure walk with Grandma and Grandpa.

Here is a video I took of Punkin Head Friday:

Kona and Sleeping

Blog Post by Kati:

Well, Kona has become quite the non-sleeper in her own bed. Ever since she has seen Callie in our bed in the mornings she wants to be in our bed all the time. She never used to want to come up on our bed. Now we can't get her off! It is pretty funny but pretty annoying at the same time. Kona definitely has big sister jealousy going on! So we'll see how that goes...

Here are a couple cute pictures...more will be put up on the shutterfly site (http://babygoose806.shutterfly.com).

Days at home

Blog Post by Kati:

I'm really getting in the groove of being at home with Callie and Kona. It helps that Callie is such a good baby! (Can't say the same for Kona all the time, but MOST of the time she's a good doggie...sometimes she gets on my last nerve!) I have the TV lineup on TLC memorized so I watch a lot of wedding shows, makeover shows, and baby shows! The baby shows are very interesting to watch now that I have gone though labor. I remember watching them in college thinking that I would never be able to do it. :)

Today we went on our first solo outing to a public place...Famous Footwear! I needed boots and so I decided to give it a shot with her. She did great- we went right when the store opened so no one was there and she just slept in her carrier. Whew!

Here are some funny faces. We are constantly amused by her faces!

3 weeks old!!!!

Blog Post by Kati:

I can't believe Callie is three weeks old! What a fast 3 weeks! Callie is growing and changing every day and we're just so lucky!

And Callie shares her 3-week birthday with Grandma! Happy Birthday Grandma!



Unfortunately we couldn't help her celebrate because along with a nasty cough I have a fever. So hopefully I'll be able to get some rest tonight and recover quickly! We'll see... :)

Here are a couple more pictures of Callie on her 3-week birthday!
