mister chatty.

as promised...


12 weeks.

12 weeks old! at his 2 month check-up, kanoa measured in at 14 lbs and 24 inches. just this week, he's enjoying tummy-time a little more... though not for too long :) he's super vocal! i'll try to get a video soon to post. he's still getting up once or twice to eat at night, so mommy is pretty tired most of the time! but, he's a big boy and hungry! which has also led me to start trying to get him interested in baby cereal. he doesn't love it yet, but it's only been a few days. crossing my fingers that he'll take to it soon and that it may help us get through the night. but, we'll see!

what a week.

sunday at beach in seattle, kaimana falls backward and knocks his head on a rock. tiny cut, but a healthy amount of blood. tuesday, kaimana gets the first of two cavities filled. thursday, he gets the second filled. friday, kaimana trips while running full speed down the hall and crashes his face into the leg of our bedframe two hours before kanoa gets 3 shots during his 2 month check-up. whew.

wednesday evening, while zach was at work, i was picking up the dishes from dinner when kanoa started crying while on his playmat. i heard kaimana say to him, 'hold on. hold on. i'm comin'. i'm comin'.' i peeked around the corner to see big brother give baby brother his binky while saying, 'here's your binky... mmmmmm... yummy....' and then turn on one of kanoa's musical toys and continue to sit with him (without being asked to) until i finished doing the dishes. what a great big brother he's turning out to be.

kanoa weighed in at 13 lb 15 oz and measured 24 inches. at home this morning, before the doctor's visit, we discovered he's ticklish! pretty fun to hear some laughter :) since the last video i posted, his chatty times are even 'chattier'. i'll try to get another video soon. he's still eating every 2-3 hours (3-4 hours at night)... he's a growin' boy! he sleeps waaaaaaaaayyyyy better than kaimana did at this age. so that's a blessing!
