Well, Daddy just got home from work and is cuddling away with Kane so I figured I'd do a quick blog update. Today was my first day at home alone with Kane. I must say I was pretty nervous coming up to this day but it actually went very well! We got spoiled the first 2 weeks of being home. My mom was here the first week helping us out and then Cory's mom came down every day the 2nd week to help as well. Cory also had the 2nd week off so he really enjoyed that time. Yesterday was Cory's first day back to work so technically it was my first day alone with Kane but I decided to have a little outing so that I wasn't cooped up in the house. I took Kane to visit where I work and also where Cory works. We had a pretty busy day! It is definitely a lot different getting ready to head out of the house with a baby in tow! Kane did really well on our outing though. He slept in the car and didn't get too fussy when it was time to eat. I am surprised that he was so alert yesterday because the night before didn't go all that well. He was up every 1.5 hours and then was wide awake at 4am! Needless to say, mom and dad didn't get much sleep. Last night went much better! Kane is really starting to be more alert during the day and seems to be soaking in everything he looks at. He still likes his naps though! Right now he seems to be a on constant 2.5 hour schedule of alert and/or sleep, eat, throw in a few pees and poops here and there. We got lucky and had 1 or 2 longer periods of sleep during the night, but he's usually up every 2.5-3 hours so we're getting used to the new sleep schedule. He is our boss right now so we go by his rules! :) He does really well eating and is growing every day! He gets fussy every once and a while when he gets gassy, is wet, or wants to eat...he'll let us know! Overall though he is a very good baby. Cory and I are both still just so amazed that he's ours. Oh yeah, last Friday we made our first road trip as a family. We went to Sioux City (2 hours away) to get Kane's newborn pictures taken. Kane was an absolute pro! The pictures turned out great....it's going to be very hard to narrow them down. Anyway, now that I've shoved all of that into a quick blog I will leave you with some pictures (above) of our sweet baby boy! Enjoy, until next time!
