Starting the day with a smile

so i have known from day one that Hayden would be advanced, he smiled early last week, then again on Saturday, and then this am he was just gummy grins and i was lucky enough to catch it on camera. He smiled at christian this am it was adorable. Notice his double chin here. Today we ventured off to Grants Farm and it was sooooo crowded, the weather was decent and the kids had fun, then we wen't to our favorite ice cream place on the way home. Even with all my points i get with weight watchers i hope i dont go over them with dinner tonight just being a salad, but i still have my weekly points that i hardly ever use. Yesterday was my 6 week check up, my dr didn't seem to reassuring that this extra skin will get a little firmer,, but other people i talked to says it will eventually get better, i may never have my flat stomach back but i at least want to wear my old pants again. I have decided to have a tubal ligation (tubes tied) it is effective immediately and by the time Chris gets into a surgeon then schedules surgery we may have 3 more kids by then, LOL. So today they scheduled it for July 21st at 0730 am, yeah i get to be there at 530am, can't wait. I need to find out how the anesthesia will affect my breastmilk, i think it will be fine since other people get it done while in the hospital who had vaginal births and can still breastfeed. I have a nice supply built in the freezer already. off to take the kiddos outside before it gets scorching hot. Also wanted to say congrats to the Reuss family on their new addtion to the family, he is sure a cutie!

Glad you got a shot of his grin with the camera! That often seems so hard when they first start doing it. Oh, BTW, glad you keep your kids in five point harnesses. I saw Fred driving Braden around in the front seat this evening in only a booster. ooohhhh, it makes me so mad and sad at the same time.

As I look at this picture of Hayden again, he looks exactly like Christian, no doubt!

Love those gummy grins! He does look just like his big bro! I'm sure their personalities will be totally different though.

Your child prodigy is already making a name for himself, hehe. It looks like you had a great time at Grant's Farm. Maggie would love that!
