Turkey Day

Here are a couple pictures of Cale in his Thanksgiving Day attire...isn't he CUTE!

Go to sleep already!

So, I went to the doctor today with Cale to get a weight check. He now weighs 12.12lbs!!! Patrick and I had made a bet before I went..whoever could guess his weight closest without going over wins a 20 minute back tickling. I guessed 12.14 and Patrick guessed 12.9, so he won. The picture of Patrick and Cale that I posted is really funny because that is what Patrick looks like every night when I come home from work. It makes me laugh. I put a video on my youtube(www.youtube.com/carson1985) for my sister because I really wanted her to hear Cale snore and I would call her so she could hear him over the phone but everytime I did that, he would wake up. I was really glad when I got it on film. Some people have been asking what Cale needs for Christmas. Not much really. I would like some books that I can read to him. Or maybe a gift card to babies r us so we can get him a new carseat when the time comes. I think Patrick and I are going to get him a walker. He really has no use for one now but we will get one sooner or later so why not for christmas. Oh yeah, diapers are always welcome...size 2 or higher. Anyway, happy thanksgiving to everybody! I can't wait to stuff my face!!!!

Work...BLAH!

So, I am back at work now:( It makes me really sad. I don't get to see Cale very much because he sleeps pretty much all morning. Also, I'm not pumping enough milk while I am at work so we have to put Cale on supplment formula so we don't run out of milk. Plus, when I do pump at work it takes up my entire 2 breaks and more than half my lunch! So I am not able to eat when I would like to. I hate work! I wish we had enough money for me to stay home, but we dont. Next week we are going to Grandma Betty's for thanksgiving, I can't wait! And Cale has his next Doctor's appointment on the 8th. Other than that, everything is great here. I hope everyone has a good thanksgiving!

Cale update

I also am going to post some videos on youtube....www.youtube.com/carson1985

Bambi

Patrick told me a very funny story yesterday...A lady he works with was out working in her garden. She looked up and saw a deer eating some of her vegetation. She had a hammer next to her so she threw it at the deer to scare it away. The hammer hit the deer in the head and killed it instantly! How funny is that?!?!

We went to Oklahoma last week to visit some family. It was really fun, I wish we could've stayed longer but Patrick had to work. I go back to work next Monday! I am so sad!

I think Cale is starting to get into the routine of sleeping through the night. I put him to bed at 10:30 last night and he didn't wake up until 6:45! Of course I didn't sleep that long. A storm woke me up at 3am then Patrick getting ready for work at 4am then I woke up at about 615 wondering if I should go check on the little one. He slept really good when we were in Oklahoma too. I am also trying to put him down when he is awake. I read on the internet that you should do that so your child learns to go to sleep on their own. He doesn't seem to mind most the time. I still let him sleep in my lap sometimes...when will he ever get to do that again.....

Patrick's Birthday Bash

On Nov. 1st we celebrated Patricks 30th birthday. We went out to eat then got on the party bus and went to a haunted house then to America's pub, then we just drove around until 2:30am. There were quite a few drunk people on that bus. It was pretty fun but I couldn't help thinking about how much sleep I could be getting since MeMa Dayle was watching Cale. Patrick didn't blame me, he thought it was funny. Overall we had a blast. It was our first night out without the baby and I never called Dayle once to check on him! I wanted to so bad though. Well, here are some pictures...
