5 Months Old

In the past month alot has happened. Kaesen got his first virus, got to eat rice, went sledding, slept in own room, had first valentines, and grew so much. At Kaesen's four month appointment he was 25 1/4in., 16 lbs 13oz. Just two weeks ago while at the doctors when he was sick he was 17lbs 8oz. He sure doesn't miss a meal. Kaesen is almost sitting up by himself and just the happiest baby ever. Kaesen loves his cousins Taylor and Cole. We see them about every day. Sometimes Kaesen visits Aunt Rachelle while I go to work. It is nice to have them just up the road to help out.

Christmas.

We started out Christmas Eve at Grandma Hope's House for our family party. After the party we got to open our Christmas PJ's from Santa. Dad helped Kaesen out with his PJ's.







Christmas morning we were woke up Kaesen around 8am. We opened presents from Santa and from each other. Kaesen got many fun presents like a Sea Horse that glows and plays music, PJ's, clothes, fun book from Jana, and other toys. He mostly loved the wrapping paper.






After opening presents at our house we went to Grandma Hope's House for breakfast. Grandma Hope made a big breakfast for my family, Michelle's family, Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Petersen, and Grandpa. After eating we opened more presents.







In the afternoon we ended the night by going to Grandma Sue house for dinner. Kaesen was pretty tried after a long day and slept the whole time while opening presents. Once he woke up we wanted to show everyone how he can roll over. He started rolling over on my birthday. He got shy and would just put his head down. He only rolls over when he wants to but he pretty proud to be doing it. I didn't think a three month old baby should be rolling over.
The football playoffs started during the Christmas break. Harlan went hunting the day the Eagles played the Cowboys. Harlan loves the Cowboys and Harlan's brother Casey loves the Eagles. When Harlan returned from hunting I had Kaesen in his cousin Coles Eagle outfit.

Blessing

Yesterday was such a special day for our family. Kaesen was blessed in his Grandparents ward. It was such a great blessing and we are so grateful for Colton. After the blessing Grandma Hope hosted a luncheon at her house for about 50 people. We are so lucky to have such great family and friends that supported Kaesen on his special day.

2 Months Old

Kaesen is now 2 months old. We went to his 2 month appointment on Friday. He had to have five shots and had to drink one too. Kaesen did well getting the shots. It almost made me cry to see him get the shots and cry.
His stats at the doctors:
Weight: 11 lbs 9.5oz(50%)
Height: 23 1/4 inches(75%)
The pictures are the before and after of having shots.

Halloween

This year little Kaesen was a monkey for Halloween. When I was pregnant our nephew Cole wanted us to name the baby George the Monkey Baby. So for halloween he was George the Monkey Baby.

Back To Work

Today me and Kaesen finally went back to work. I am able to have Kaesen come to work with me every day. Today I worked hard and Kaesen slept the whole time only woke up once to eat. My cousin Angi has been doing my job since I had Kaesen so there wasn't alot of work to catch up on. She is so great. She has four kids, a daycare, works from home for the store, and also did my job. Thank you so much and you are a wonderful cousin for doing this for me. Also today my sister Michelle had surgery. So all day at work I just kept on thinking about her. The surgery went well and she is still in the hospital. I love you Michelle and hope you feel better soon!!
