Cappy & Kep

Kepler was fussing a bit while he was on the floor while we were eating and dad got up and went down on the floor to try to get him to stop crying. It was SUCH a kodak moment we had to snap a few. He is such an awesome grandfather - I knew he would be!!

He spends a lot of time talking to Kepler and trying to keep him from crying and trying to get him smile. It is the most precious thing I've ever seen.

Kepler Photo Shoot

Here are a few pictures that our friend took for us. He was only a few days old when we got these done, not even a week old! Look at those cute little lips!!

Tummy Time

So I figure it's a good time to start his tummy time - he's already got a surprisingly strong neck and his arms aren't far behind. He's a strong little booger! However, the goal I had for tummy time today was to help keep him awake for a bit to help with the longer "nap" being at night, (we are hoping soon the "nap" will turn into a longer sleep cycle than 3 hours) turned into nap time. Was it wrong I wanted to put the camera down and sleep right next to him?

He looked WAY too cute to even want to move to try to keep awake.

Maternity Photo Shoot

While we're waiting for Kepler's arrival (which is only a few weeks away!!) - we decided to get some maternity & family photos done. Here are a couple of our favorites.

Week 29 Sono

So now that the Dr. knows everything is going great with little Kepler, this week was most likely my last time to see my boy before the big day! He's right on target at 3 lbs and great heart rate. He was good at didn't move too much at this appointment, which allowed us to get a frontal face shot. MUCH cuter than the skeleton alien face we saw a few weeks ago. He also looks like he's trying to suck his thumb in one of our pictures, which I thought was super funny.

Finally starting too look like a little human!

Thanksgiving Trip to Utah

On our way up to Utah, we stopped in Colorado to see my siblings so we had to drive through Wyoming. Of course, due to snow - I-80 was shut down causing us to stay in the 1950s for the night. Oh Little America - I'll be fine if I never stay there again!
