5 Months!

Our little man is growing up so quickly!

  • He is growing super fast! All of a sudden he has chunky thighs and an even chunkier chin. Apparently he is trying to grow into his head :-)
  • He has decided that feeding would be better with a bottle and has decided that breastfeeding is too much work. And he has also decided to no longer sleep through the night - and gets up twice to either eat or just get snuggles! The snuggles are nice but I'd sure like to get a good night's sleep!
  • We have had a series of very hot days which has caused our house to be extremely hot at night. Which then caused one little boy to get to sleep naked - no jammies and no swaddle. Therefore, he no longer sleeps with a swaddle (which has also not helped the sleeping). 

  • Liam can now roll from his back to his stomach but refuses to roll from his stomach to his back. He now sleeps on his side/stomach. 
  • He loves being outside and around other people. He seems to be a bit of a ham - enjoys the attention. 
  • He is a very easy boy to be put to sleep - naps only take about 5-10 minutes and bedtime about the same. He only naps 30-40 minutes at a time but, for the most part, wakes up happy. I guess you could say, he plays hard and crashes!
  • He is getting very strong and is starting to sit up by himself a bit (not just in the bumbo). 
He's very excited about being able to stand in the bouncer - he gets to be at his sister's eye level.

Callie loves to help out! She will change diapers and constantly ask to feed him. (he is obviously very happy - half asleep)

Introducing.....Callie Lynn Graham

Our baby girl has finally come to join our family! Callie was born on August 10th at 6:34 pm., weighing in at 7 pounds 1 ounce and measuring 19.5 inches long. She is a absolute delight and Preston and I can't seem to get enough of her. Although the laboring went quickly, the delivery proved a bit trickier for me and we ended up needing to deliver by C-section. Callie was extremely healthy and was ready to leave the hospital even before I was! Due to a few complications, Preston, Callie, and I ended up staying at the hospital for 5 days. Luckily Preston has so much time off of work - don't know what we would have done if he needed to go back after a week. We can't seem to say enough positive things about the nursing staff at St. Joseph's hospital. They were amazing! Although it was not fun staying at the hospital that long (especially since we only packed our bag for one night) we got a lot of extra help with nursing and overall care of Callie. Both Preston and Call...

Sun River 2018

For mid winter break, we headed up to Sun River for the week. As always, it did not disappoint! The kids had a blast spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa, all their cousins, skiing, and playing in the snow. This year we started with no snow on the ground and ended with a blizzard that made driving home very tricky. Liam stayed home with Grandma while Callie and I skied. Although it is always hard to be left behind, he loves his Grandma so much and they had an absolute blast together. I'm also realizing that she took all the pictures so I have very few with her...major bummer! We celebrated these 2 boys on this trip.  When there is this many kids, you not only take over the whole run but there it is also very difficult to figure out which way to go.... Grandpa and his gang Pretty soon we won't all fit on one couch. Unfortunately our sister/dad ski day did not go as planned. Sarah took a spill the day before and was not able to ski with us for ...
