Karston doesn't have playschool this week (Spring Break), but he really needs a normal routine to balance out the big change of a baby brother. So we improvised! This morning, Daddy and Karston went to visit Nadia and Tasha (a year older and a year younger). Nadia was just as excited as Karston about a playdate, and they had a grand time playing!!! Karston saw play-dough for the first time. After a morning of play that couldn't be beat, Daddy took Karston over to Mimi's house since that's where he goes after his regular playschool mornings. Karston was very happy to hear about Mimi, and insisted that only she could get him out of his car seat. When she did, Karston snuggled up under her chin as he does when he's very tired. Yeah, he napped right away, and slept well. Then he ate well. We all were very glad Karston had such a great time playing, and followed his routine. That's got to help him adjust.
Cale weighed 8.5 pounds this afternoon with a fresh N diaper, a tee, and a hat. Karston reached Cale's birth weight of 8 pounds just before he was 3 weeks old, and he was 9.25 pounds at his one month pediatrician's visit. So what took Karston between three weeks and a month to weigh, Cale has done in 9 days. Of course it helps to start with an extra 1.5 pounds at birth!
This evening I nursed Cale and cuddled Karstpn to get them both ready for bed. I can't have more children because I barely have room on my lap for these two! I enjoyed our snuggle time.
