Ahhhh...

SLEEEEEEP!!

Keely ate for her last time just before 11:00pm and woke up this morning at 8:20. I was in the midst of making waffles for Tyson, so she actually didn't get to eat unti 8:45. But, she was very content just helping me with Tyson's breakfast.

Wow, a night of sleep feels so good. Even though she has been sleeping well for almost a week, Luke has had a horrible flu the last few days and hasn't been sleeping well. Therefore, I haven't been sleeping well either. Luke slept better last night +Keely slept through the night. = I GOT A LOT OF SLEEP IN A ROW!!!

I pray that Luke continues to get better (he is on flu medication and they put me on it too. I couldn't imagine having to try to nurse her, if my body hurt so bad and if I couldn't keep anything down!). I also pray that Keely's sleep last night will continue and continue and continue!



Just had to add another picture from our photo shoot. I love her expressions!

Keely's New Bath Towel

Luke's Aunt Rebecca sent this amazingly cute towel for Keely. We will be able to use it for a long time because it is made with a huge bath towel!

Sleep...

is amazing! Keely finally doesn't have congestion any more. She has gone almost a week without congestion, which has helped her feel better and sleep better. She has not been spitting up as much so she looks like she has put on a lot more pudge this week.
We have been working with Keely so she learns how to sleep by herself. The crying isn't lasting very long at all anymore if she cries at all.
Last night was her 3rd night in a row that she has done 6.5 hours plus before she wakes up again. Last night she went 7 1/4 hours which was 35 minutes more than the night before.
We are loving more consecutive sleep. And I got 6 1/4 hours uniterrupted sleep. But after I fed her, I couldn't go back to sleep. Last week I was getting 6 hours not in a row and last night was so nice!!!

So, I couldn't just pick a few pictures. I am posting almost all the pictures we have taken over the past few days.

Oh My!!!!

Well, I just had to share what happened last night. Luke was gone. Keely was with me in our living room. Tyson was playing in my bedroom. He had pulled our pillows down and one of the blankets and had made a little bed/fort between the bed and the wall. I was completely fine with him playing there. He was playing very quietly and was pretending that he was sleeping.
Meanwhile I fed Keely and started burping her and decided that I should go check on Tyson.
This is where the OH MY!!! comes in. (I wish I had taken pictures!) I went into our bedroom and Tyson had taken my muscle massage gel (that turns hot when rubbed on skin) and emptied the bottle all over the bed. When I walked in he had started on a foot cream that I had gotten for Christmas. He had emptied about half of it.
To say the least I was mad!!
So, at 7:30 pm at night, I had to wash our sheets, our mattress cover, and my down comforter.

Professional Pictures

So we finally got around to having Keely's professional "newborn" (not so newborn) pictures taken. Here is a glimpse of our sweet girl.

This is Tyson saying, "Mama, I don't want!" He was holding her so nice before...which he loves to do.













Tyson loves to read!!
