Addison & Callen

I thought it would be hard going back to work but I gotta say these two kiddos have made it much easier.  They love to help: one gets a diaper out, one gets the changing pad, they get to take turns throwing the dirty one away and they make sure I am aware that " THE BABY IS CRYING!" We went for our first outing to Pump it Up. When we got in the car I did a mental check: diaper bag, snacks, water, Addison in the back, Callen is behind me....oh wait a minute...where is Colby?!?! Still inside right by the door.  I'm pretty sure I will forget one kid somewhere someday.  Just hope its somewhere safe!

Happy 1 Month!


 colby is 1 months old video

Um....wow! Not sure where the past 31 days went. Oh wait, yes I do.  It went to figuring out feedings, perfectly interrupted sleep, FaceTiming my family, having visits from family & friends, crying about your nose being stuffed up, spending hours cuddling with you when I should have been doing homework, worrying about if you were still breathing during the night, trying to soothe your cries, taking naps with you on my chest, taking a million pictures, oh and changing 3500 diapers.

I've realized there was no point in naming you Colby since no one really calls you it.  I call you BOBO- your Dad hates it, Aunt Jenny calls you CoJo- your Dad equally hates that, and he calls you his little buddy.  Things have certainly changed since you came.  Like when I get a call from Grandpa; its no longer, " Hey, how are you?" Its an abrupt greeting of "How is my grandson?!" Mmmmhmmm, thanks for calling Dad :) And even though Dozer often gets left out now, he naps next to you in your swing and I have found him at times sleeping in your room at night.  I guess he has no hard feelings towards you.

What is my favorite thing about you now? Even though I love the feeling of you asleep in my arms, the best is when Dad plays DJ and we sing and dance with you!

In the past 31 days I have experienced a love that is unexplainable.  You have completely taken over our world and we find something more to fall in love with from you each day.  I am looking forward to the next 18,000 days or more of moments with you.
