We have 12 cards, one for each month of Calin's first year. I'm supposed to take a picture of him with the card and a stuffed animal each month to see how much he is growing. Here is his first picture! I can't believe he's already 1 month old! He was so good for me while I took his picture! He looked at the camera the whole time, and held himself up super well! He's a pretty strong little guy, but maybe it's just because he is a little guy. Too bad I couldn't catch a smile.
He's been so good lately! I've been able to put him down for naps before he's asleep without him crying. He's been going about 4 hours now between feedings. He's been getting some good 5 hour stretches in at night, which I am loving (it's rare that he wakes up more than twice during the night now)!! He doesn't cry anymore during bath time. He's only been to church twice, but both times he made it all 3 hours without even a little crying (last Sunday he slept the entire time).
How's my recovery going? Hmm . . . well I feel great. And I've lost all the weight that I gained during pregnancy, BUT you would never know it! My stomach is nowhere near the flat tummy I had before. And luckily it's not cool enough yet to where I have to wear jeans since there's not a chance I'm fitting into those anytime soon. I think everything else is back to normal, it's just my stomach that is having issues. And the only way I can explain the whole pre-pregnancy weight + belly = no muscle left. I think I just lost all my muscle, and really need to be better about trying to get it back. I've been lazy with the workouts, so I totally have myself to blame! I better kick it in gear if I want to fit into jeans this fall :) Other than that, I love being home with Calin! I'm never bored. Actually I feel like I have too much to do, and rarely find time to take a nap. But busy is good.
Jordan is still very busy with school. Flag football started last week, so he's pumped about that! He got called to be the Elders Quorum secretary at church, which I think is an awesome calling for him since he just has that organized write everything down type of attitude. I don't really know what the EQ Secretary does, but I imagine they take a lot of notes? lol. And Jordan is a very good note taker :)
I'm very excited for tomorrow! I finally get my new stroller!!! I've been waiting so long! The one we decided on was recalled, so I was having trouble ordering it. Finally we decided to just go with a different one - the one we both really wanted anyway. And the best part was I ended up getting it for almost 35% off! I'll post some pics once it arrives. We also are changing wireless providers from T-Mobile to AT&T and should get our new phones tomorrow. I love getting packages in the mail, and tomorrow we'll get some super fun ones!
This picture is a couple was taken a couple weeks ago, but I think it's so cute with the sunset in the background. They are just so cute together I love taking pictures of them both!
