Currently Kyan seems to be changing so quickly. He has left behind the days of a newborn who only sleeps and eats, with little to no interaction with anyone around him. He now has a relationship with each member of our family. A real relationship. Happily I can say, he loves me! :) We have a cuddly, over-the-top in love with each other kind of relationship. I can always get smiles and sweet noises from him. He and his daddy have a similar relationship--they sit and stare at each other each and every night. Kyan obviously trying to get to know his daddy, and Kev enjoying the daily moment with his son. Then there is Mckinley. The relationship between Kyan and Mckinley melts my heart. They absolutely love each other. Mckinley has this new found care-giver desire. She goes to him to pat his back, give him his pacifier or toys, or simply hold his hand. She asks to hold him all the time. She knows the every detail of his day. Kyan breaks into a wide, gummy smile any time he catches sight of her. It quite honestly is amazing to watch.
Sometime around Mckinley's first birthday I remember looking back at the monthly pictures we had taken of her and thinking that at about 3 or 4 months she drastically started to change. I have been waiting to see if this is also true for Kyan. While he doesn't seem to have such a drastic appearance change that she did (she got REAL round and chubby!), he does have the look of being older.
He is beyond sweet and incredibly handsome! Kyan, we love you so much!!
You would never know how smiley you are by these pictures--apparently you hate the photo shoot I put you through monthly!
Things new this month:
- You are a full-fledged thumb sucker. Most times when I lay you down you stick your left hand thumb in your mouth and you rub the back/side of your head with your right hand. You also now prefer your thumb to your pacifier when you are put to bed (you will actually gag on your pacifier and spit it out!).
- You make the cutest sad face in the entire world. You have a really cute cry also. More of a whimper/"feel sorry for me guys" kind of cry.
- You are sleeping between 7 and 8 hours at night (woo hoo!) and you take 3, 1 1/2 to 2 hour naps and 1, 1 hour nap.
- You have acid reflux—boo! We're working with the doc trying to figure out how to best treat it.
- You do not eat near as much as your sister did, but you are still gaining lots of weight.
- You love your swing--it works miracles when you wake early from your naps.
- You have learned to cope well with your noisy sister--you don't often get woke by her! :)
- You smile at almost anyone who will pay attention to you.
- You are becoming aware of toys. You still do not hold them, but you bat at the toys on your playmat.
I am so excited to see what next month brings (since technically I'm writing this in what is your fourth month I can say from experience that there is fun stuff to come! :) ).
PS -- I am a blogging machine this week, huh? Hope everyone is sticking around for all the fun updates! :)
