December

This has been such a fun and eventful December! Kayson took his first step on my birthday, turned 10 months old, had his first Christmas and to top off his first step took 4 steps in a row today!! Kayson is getting so big I can hardly believe it! He has just recently had a big growth spurt and is looking more and more like a toddler instead of my little baby! He says Mama, Dadda, ball, doggie, teddy, Skyler and babba. He is not a big fan of his baby food anymore so he now eats whatever we eat and LOVES it!  Kayson loved opening all his presents!  He unwrapped most of his presents pretty much by himself.  His favorite toy I have to say was his baby doll.  I don't care what anyone says, Im glad my little boy has a baby doll!!  Santa brouhgt him some pretty neat things and I can't wait to do this again!

On Christmas Eve we went and looked at the lights at Temple Square.  It was alot of fun but very cold!  Kayson was all bundled up and warm and loved looking at all the lights.

  Kayson standing all by himself!  He is such a natural!

I just had to take a picture of him in his diaper and bow tie!  Way too cute!

Kayson loves playing with his friends!  Here is Kayson and Covey actually playing together instead of just staring at one another..

King of the presents!!!

YIPPEE!!

Last night Kayson slept through the night for the FIRST time! He has never done that! He went from 9:00 to 5:30, then just sat in his crib playing until 6!! We are soo excited! It has made such a huge difference switching to Soy formula!

9 Months!!

Yesterday Kayson turned 9 months!! Can you believe it?? I surely can't! He is such a big boy! He went to the Dr. for his 9 month apointment and weighs in at..... 23.6 lbs and is 28 3/4 inches! Some of his accomplishments are:

• eating table foods (he loves bread and mashed potatos)
• pulling himself up on EVERYTHING and walking while holding on
• walking with his walker
• has two cute teeth

We also found out that he is allergic to milk so he has to be on soy formula now. I can already see such a big improvement on how he is feeling! He still has a bad cough and a bad buggery nose but the Dr. said that should clear up within a couple weeks! We just love our little bug so much and are so glad he is in our family!!

Allergy?

So I think Kayson has a milk allergy!! We switched him from his Gentlease formula to the Costco brand a couple weeks ago and Im just now putting all of his "sickness" together. For that past couple weeks Kayson has been so fussy and grumpy which is completely not like him!! He has also had a bad stuffy/runny nose, a bad cough, a blow out EVERY morning, eczema, fluid behind his ear and has not been sleeping very well. I was freaking out thinking what could be going on with him until I thought well Im Lactos Intolerant so maybe he is... So today at work Todd sent me a link of symptoms of a milk allergy and Kayson had ALL but the colic symptom!!! I feel soo bad that he has been so miserable for the past couple weeks and I didn't put it together sooner! He has his 9 month apointment on tuesday so until then Im going to switch him back to his old formula and see if that helps him feel better!!! Poor little guy!

6 Months

So on the 17th Kayson turned the BIG 6 months! He surely is a big boy! He went to the Dr. today and is 20.4 lbs and 27 inches long! He has managed to hit some pretty big milestones as well.....He can sit up all by himself, he can get up on his hands and knees without any help (he really wants to crawl but is not quite there yet...) and he is ready to start eating mashed up table food and stage 2 meats!! Yikes! He is such a funny kid, he talks and laughs all the time. His favorite thing to say is "bhaaa." He also sings along to the radio in the car lol! That has got to be the cutest thing ever! I am such a lucky mom to have such an awesome kid!!! :)

Surgery Day

This morning Kayson had his surgery. We got to Primary Childrens and got checked in at about 7:30 this morning. Then after a little wait we went back into the exam room where they checked his vital signs and made sure he was ready for surgery. They had us change him into an infant hospital gown with little pants and socks and it was off to the Pre-Op waiting room. After about an hour of waiting the Anethesialogist came and gave us some instruction then took Kays off for surgery. They started by placing a little mask over his mouth and nose to make him fall asleep. Then the Dr. placed a probe into his absess until it reached is rectum, and cut down to the probe. From there they scraped out the lining of his skin inside to clear the infection. It all went really well and they got it all cleaned out. The worst part of it all so far was him coming out of the anesthesia. The cut is pretty deep and painful, thankgoodness for Tylenol! Here are a few pictures we took throughout.

Here is Kayson at 6:30 this morning before we left.

Kayson and Mommy. He is hungry as can be!!

He finally fell asleep about 10 min. before his surgery. The nurse gave him a Teddy Bear to keep.

Us in the recovery room. This was the first time he had really eaten at all today & that was around 9:45.

He had a hard time comming out of the anesthesia but once it was mostly out of his system we had our happy little boy back!!

In the elevator going home. Once he got dressed and we left the room he was all smiles!

You did so good today Kays! We are so proud of you! We love you!
