5 Months

Grandma Rutenbar had a birthday! 

Trick or Treating with Lyla 

First time in your jumper. 

You look like your cousin Bentley! 

Kennedy Jayne-

Month 5 has flown by! We enjoyed our last week together before I went back to work and you started daycare. For Halloween you dressed up as a mermaid and went trick or treating with Lyla. You actually slept in the stroller most of the time!

November 3^rd was the big day…daycare! Your mom had a few tearful drives as she drove to work after dropping you off but each day got easier. It definitely helps that we LOVE The Wiggle Room! Every time we drop you off and pick you up you are happy and not crying! Your dad came with us twice the first week to drop you off but he decided that was too hard on him and he will stick to picking you up! J  

Your dad is an awesome dad! I’m not sure what I would do without his help. You name it he does it-changing diapers, washing bottles, helping at bath time, sucking boogers out of your nose, gets up in the middle of the night, keeps you by himself, etc.  I love watching the two of you play together and especially the big smile you get when you see him.

We are looking forward to-

*Grandma & Grandpa Watson and Great Aunt Bev coming to visit for Thanksgiving!  

*Starting solids!

*Christmas vacation-flying to Michigan for 2 weeks!

Average daily schedule-

5:40 - wake up & get dressed

5:45-6:15 - nurse

6:30- leave (30 minute drive to daycare-you normally fall asleep for about 10 minutes & wake up when we get there)

7:00-4:15 -@ daycare. You eat 4 ½ ounces every 2 ½ hours and usually nap 2-3 times for a total of anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours. Your reports always say you are happy, smiley, friendly, or sleepy.

5:00 –get home and play. Take a nap. Play some more. Take a bath every other night.

7:00- nurse

7:30-bed time. Lay you down in your crib awake and you fall asleep.

I’ll eat you up I love you so-
