The first day of junior kindergarden

Here we are, beginning JK! 4 years ago still more than a month away from your birthday! 

My little boy. You were a baby in my arms just 4 years ago! 

At almost 4 years old you have been to 2 different daycares, a montessori school and now public school. I felt confident about today and your independent little self beginning your first day! You are good with change and adapt pretty fast. You are very vocal about what you like and don't like! So we will hear about it forsure! 

This morning as we had breakfast you expressed that you rather be home! Ha! I took a video of our conversation it was pretty cute! 

We styled your hair, like you asked. 

We packed up your little brother and drove to the school. 

You were ready! Head held high and walked in the school like you knew all about it! 

Not one tear from any of us haha.

You went in with a teacher,

She walked you to your class. 

You didn't even look back! Thx for that! Ha!

When I picked you up you said you had fun! You loved your new class! 

I had a cake pop waiting for you! You loved that!! I'll have Cake pops for you all week! Yay! This is a big deal this JK! 

I am so happy! Hoping day 2 is just as smooth!!

I have your lunch packed and ready. 

In your backpack was a package of forms. I spent the evening signing these forms. Lunch and milk programs too. I even filled out your agenda with the upcoming days off and teacher meetings. 

Mommy is just as excited as you are!!

My first baby off to school! We love you so much! 

Weekend fun before school!

Oh boy tomorrow is the first day of school! And like many parents we are nervous for our little ones! 

Little k is going to JK! Where did these 4 years go! 

I just prepared his clothes for tomorrow morning and his school bag.

Tomorrow he is going in for just 2 hours and Wednesday he begins full day! 

This weekend we had Soo much fun with family and friends! 

My sister had a 30th birthday party at her place. 

While the adults had fun my older niece helped put the littles to sleep haha. 

Yesterday we had a bbq party at our place. And little k met a new friend 

It's been sooooo hot here which is great! 

But better if we were having pool parties this weekend haha.

Baby M is 3 weeks old already! 

My cutie!! 

Summertime fun!

Summer is coming to an end! Jk begins next week! 

We went by the new school yesterday to pick up our schedule. 

I hope it's a smooth transition!

We had a super fun weekend. It was our cousins first birthday! So we went to his pool party! 

Little k loves the pool and spent the whole afternoon in the water!! 

Little brother had fun too! Ha doing what he does best! Chillin! 

And! A cousin got engaged at the end of the party too! 

We are so happy for these 2!

Today we had some friends over for a playdate. Trying to pack in as much as we can before school! 

We have a busy week ahead and it's a perfect sunny warm end of summer! 

I bought this new easy to use wrap! So baby M can be cuddled close while we are out and about! 

2 weeks old out and about

Baby M! All you do is eat and sleep! Ahhh the newborn life! There is a lot happening around you! Life is busy! Very different than when big brother was born.  You baby M are born into this crazy busy family! Haha. We promise you it will get even more fun for you!

You are Sooo squishy!!! We all cuddle you Soo much! You love the boobiemilk and drink until you pass out for hours! 

With big brother being so hyper we need to constantly entertain him.

We watched little k play outside with his friends.. 

We took big bro to the park! 

We went to see dinosaurs! Oh you just wait until next year, you too will love this place. I already know the names to many dinosaurs, your big bro will teach you all about this when you are ready.

We went for sushi! And you and your brother were so well behaved! 

Little k loves sushi! He ate so much and even tried and loved wasabi ha! 

We also took zoe to the vet and to the groomer for a haircut! You will love zoe! 

With big bro home until school begins, mommy needs to keep him busy when indoors too! We do things like cooking together, juicing together... Which he loves helping mommy with. Apple and carrot juice, our fave! 

So much fun! 

No can't believe how fast you are growing! 

You are in size 0-3/ 3 

months. Almost out of newborn diapers too, I just want to finish the pack, but when it's done you'll be in size 1! 

10 days old...

Baby M's life as a 10 day old! 

Baby M, you attended your first party. Your little cousins 5th birthday! 

Late night out had you and your brother sleeping on the way home! 

You had many visitors... 

You had your first outing with mommy and little k alone today. Just to the pharmacy but mommy getting 2 kids out the door for the first time alone is pretty big news ha! 

You both were perfect! 

You get so many kisses and cuddles from mommy, daddy and especially big brother!!

You are on a pretty consistent routine already and I really can't complain at all! 

You are our bundle of joy!!! We love you so much! 

Baby M's first doctor visit

After we were released from the hospital Sunday we had to bring baby back to the hospital monday and Tuesday for jaundice tests. 

On Tuesday he was admitted over night for phototherapy :(

I stayed over night with baby and daddy and littlek went home. Kris missed me so much, they called me FaceTime at midnight.

Wednesday we were released and his levels are normal! Yay!! 

Bye bye hospital! 

Today we went to see his doctor for his first check up! 

Big brother was on duty! 

The doctor was so happy to see that he is over his birth weight! Yay! He was surprised for a breastfed baby. Ha! Littlek was the opposite! I had more trouble with breastfeeding as a new mom. This time around has been so easy! Minus some little common issues with breastfeeding, still at a much quicker start than with littlek. 

Happy boys! 

Tomorrow baby M is 1 week old!! 

 

Meeting baby brother!

Little k was in the waiting room when I gave birth. So as soon as baby was cleaned up and in my arms little k was sent in! 

Meeting baby brother for the first time! 

He was so happy!

Little k was so involved from the minute we found out I was pregnant. Baby Michael talk was daily! He knew on the way to the hospital that we were going to get baby Michael out of mommy's tummy! Haha. 

Proud big brother! 

These 2 melt my heart!!
