Keagan's First Christmas

This year was Keagan's first Christmas! We had a blast shopping for him, but I did have some trouble firguring out what to buy for an eight month old. Kyle's mom and my mom didn't seem to have to much trouble...we have clothes and toys everywhere in the house now! And he got the cutest pair of new balances :)What would ya do without grandparents! Here are a few pictures I took Christmas eve, Christmas morning and we tried getting a few at each stop that day...not to mention the pictures we got of Uncle Josh and Keagan!
Enjoy :)

Apologies...

To everyone (Ashley) who has been upset that I haven't updated my blog here it goes.... :) For the past few weeks Keagan has been really sick. He keeps getting ear infections and right now he has a small one in his left ear but a really bad one in his right ear. For anyone who has gone through this " I am SO SO SORRY" this is the worst thing possible. He can't tell me what's wrong so all he does is cry. I feed him, change his diaper, give him a bath, rock him, let him have his binkie, put him in his jumper, set him on the floor, and ALL he does is cry, then I cry, then we start over...I feed him, change his diaper- you get the point. He doesn't sleep and I don't sleep. A couple nights ago he fell asleep and grunted the whole night because he was in such pain. I can't wait for these things to go away... I do have to be thankfull all it is- is an ear infection. On that note I should mention Kyle's best friend lost his sister just in the past couple days... It's never easy seeing someone pass, but there is something about being a mom and seeing a child pass. Your whole perspective changes. I do know God has taken this little girl for a reason, but it doesn't stop feelings of anger or sadness. She was young and innocent, but all things happen for a reason and we have to believe that...if we didn't we wouldn't have anything to live for. Anyone who prays - pray. Just pray.

Water...

Now that Keagan is six months old the doctors suggested trying new things. We have been giving him cereals from a spoon for a while now and that's been going good. So we decided to try a little water. At first we gave him a sippy cup but that did not go well at all! He just kept hitting himself in the head with the hard plastic! Yea- great first experience! So I being the brilliant person I am decided I would just take the lid off and give him a drink myself....Well not only did it run all down his chest, onto his belly, and soaked his socks...he made this face...


I mean it's water...who knew it could taste this bad? Ha Ha

Updating...

Aunt Kaci getting some kisses!

Daddy stealing a couple too...

I have always loved brown hair- Kyle on the other hand would much rather I stay blond. However, I finally took the plunge and went dark! I have to say I am loving it, and Kyle seems to really like it too... :) He keeps telling me that anyways! My dad told him it would be like cheating without really cheating ha ha gotta love dad! I love it but I am really excited about Kyle loving it!! I may just stay this color for a while!!

Trick or Treat

Considering Keagan is only six and a half months old he didn't get to eat a lot of candy! Kyle and I on the other hand took full advantage of our sweet pony and got all kinds of candy...

Our Pony...

Presenting Out Little Pony!! We couldn't have been any more proud of our baby on Halloween! There were a hundred costumes to choose from but this being the only Halloween I would have much say in...I chose something a little more baby-ish! He was the most precious thing- and boy did he love his costume! He threw a little fit when we took it off of him! I can't wait for next year!!

So Long, No blog :)

It seems like it has been months since I have blogged. I have been so incredibly busy! Within the past few weeks Keagan has had two terrible ear infections, Kyle has been changing positions at work, and I have re-applied for school.
Having a sick baby is not an easy task. If anyone has children they know the feeling. I would get aggravated because he would not stop crying, but then I would feel bad because he was in such pain. A mom's job is an emotional roller coaster! All of my friends have been calling and asking why I have been ignoring them...To be honest, I just want to be alone the few quite minutes I get right before I go to bed. But no need to worry friends- I'm not ignoring you :)
I have not only been dealing with a sick baby, but I had to get in all of my paper work to Motlow for early registration! My plan ( lol if only plans worked in my life ha ha ) I registered for Mycro, History, and Dosage and Calculations for this spring semester. I will take the nursing entrance exam in February, and hopefully begin nursing school in the fall. Everyone I have talked to who is currently in the program tells me how ridicuously difficult it is...To note- they don't have a six and a half month old! So everyone pray that I succeed in this journey!! It's going to be a long, rough road but it's something I have wanted my whole life!!
Well Mr. Keagan has decided to wake up and it's lunch time! :) I'll blog later with some updated photos!!
