Proud Mama!!

Can you blame me for being a Proud Mom!! Look at how cute he is! He is starting to smile more than just randomly in his sleep...it is so cute! He is such a sweetie pie!
For the last week we have been working on routining Kaden with a eat/play/sleep cycle. Some days have been better than others. His latest thing is that he doesn't like to nap during the day. He will be so tired and fussy and even fall asleep in your arms, as soon as you lay him down his eyes open wide and is awake and doesn't want to sleep. If he doesn't cry, he will just lay there and look around and then eventually cry and I mean cry. He is fighting going to sleep! Today we started swaddling him for naps and it seem to help a little bit. He was a very good boy today and napped when he was suppose to!
An update on Kaden's diaper rash...we had to go back to the doctor again last week because it wasn't getting better. We got a 3rd prescription ointment to use and they also did a culture to make sure it was a bacteria. We haven't heard from the doctor yet so hopefully it isn't. We have been using the ointment for 5 days and using wash cloths to clean him (his bottom was so raw) and there is just a small rash left. Yah!! Finally something that worked...poor guy!
Isn't he sooo cute!! He is completely John! Pretty much the one thing he has from me is his fussiness and impatience when he is tired or hungry!John is pretty proud of how alike him and Kaden are. He will be holding him and looking him in the face and say, "Man... sometimes I swear I am looking in the mirror."

I just love looking at these pics. He is so big for only being a month and a half old. His Thompson uncles and his Dad didn't like to sleep during the day either. I'd just put them in their infant seats and they would occasionally cat nap. It's a hereditary thing. Also a boy thing. keep those pics coming. Love, Grandma Jan
