We're So Glad When Daddy Comes Home

While it hasn't been too long since I posted any pictures, we have taken a ton since I last blogged. Just these two last weeks Kellen has gained some weight. Brad finally cut the nipple on the bottle to see if he would eat faster and now he does in 10 minutes. So he eats more milk and sometimes even wants more! He has developed a thing for his fingers and toes and loves to chew on them!

He fits into a lot more of his clothes, one our favorites is this one. So Tauna, that day Kellen got to do whatever he wanted because you said yes! (plus you already said yes to come visit him soon)

He loves it when Brad does his chewbacha noise and smiles instantly! He is laughing a ton more and interacting more and more each day.

Kellen hit his four month mark! I think he is getting used to the camera because he will look straight at it and smile! We go into the doctor on Tuesday and I can imagine he has put some weight on.

Brad finally had a weekend off this month so we went to DC to go to the temple. One of Brad's old mission companion and his wife watched Kellen while we went. We also saw a good friend Scott and went to lunch with him. We were going to see the Cherry Blossoms but it was rainy and there were too many people so drive pictures is what we got!

There he is with his toes. When we go on walks he gets free reign of his toes and it preoccupies him most of the time.

Lately when Kellen gets really cranky and tired he wants a blanket over his face. Obviously it scares me because I don't know if he is covering his nose or not. So after he calms down I try and pull the blanket up.

On Friday we went to a friends house for dinner. We were in a rush and forgot to change his diaper and bring an extra change of clothes. First big mistake. Brad was holding him and feeding him when I spot that Kellen's all white onesie is not so white anymore. Kellen had quite the major blowout all over Brad. So Brad wore a blanket around him the rest of the evening and Kellen was just in a diaper. This was how Brad wrapped him up to go home!

Saturday we walked to the ball park where one of Brad's coworkers son was playing. It was nice to get out and watch little league. Kellen loves it outside and it is the place we go when he gets fussy!

This is what he does when he gets tired. He sure loves his dad!

Today after our walk we decided to give him some baby oatmeal. He has been eyeing my meals for awhile now and really liked the small amount of applesauce we gave him the other day. He was obviously ready and ate it quite fast. Bring on the solids!

These are the kind of pictures I am glad Brad takes! Kellen sure takes after his dad's looks.

Tonight since Brad had the night off he read to Kellen. Brad likes to stray away from what is in the books and comes up with some interesting versions of children's stories. I wouldn't recommend them to be published! Well this is what happens when Brad actually has days off of work, we do things and actually take pictures. So glad we have had some days with Brad and I know Kellen enjoys it!
