Kylen has officially mastered crawling! Whoo hoo! He is constantly on the move. I miss when he used to cuddle with me but I love that he is so curious about everything. He does not like that I gated off our hallway which leads to the dogs' water dish. He bangs on the gate and looks at me with a sad face. He uses everything to stand up and seems to think that he can stand alone without holding onto someone or something.I used to hate our carpet but I am thankful we have it now because he loses his balance when he gets too daring. We had our first boo-boo yesterday. He was standing, holding on to our cubbie that holds baskets and he lost his balance and hit the edge of it :( He ended up having a meltdown after scraping his chin. I felt so bad because I was sitting right next to him. I know it won't be the last time considering his boyish braveness but I still feel horrible.
We are still waking up once at night but he sleeps in till 7:00 most mornings which is great. I am really anxious for the heat to subside because we are stuck in the house most of the day. When we do go out, it is just miserable and I feel bad for Kylen since he is still in his infant car seat which does not let allow him much air. He should be moving into a big boy car seat soon which I am excited about because carrying him around in the infant car seat it getting very heavy and uncomfortable!
He has 3 bottom teeth now and the top 4 are all coming in at the same time. I think his teething is the reason for his not eating very well. Not only does he think it is hilarious to spit out all his food and grab the spoon but he is also not wanting to eat like he used to. I am hopeful that it is a phase and his appetite will come back around. It has also turned into a fight to get him to sleep. He used to go down so easily but now he fights it like he never has before. Oh the challenges of motherhood..
I left for Disneyland today and I did not take Kylen which is very difficult. I had a few meltdowns and many tears but I know he will be okay. It is my grandmother's 80th birthday and she wanted to go to Disneyland so that is what we are doing. My grandmother, Aunt Chris, Danielle, Michelle, Tristyn and my mom are all going for 6 days. Kylen is staying home with dad and Nana since he is too young. I know he will have a ton of fun being spoiled by his grandparents.
I will be uploading pictures soon! Promise!
It is always harder for the parents to leave than for the kids. I can't believe he is crawling. Noah just has no interest in crawling..but I am ok with that. We have to catch up soon!
