April 2012

April Highlights:
*Camdyn had her 2 week visit on April 3rd (Daddy's Birthday) and she weighed 8 lbs. 14 oz and was 21 1/2 inches long.
April 4th: 6th consecutive night in a row for Camdyn only waking up once to eat! This is 5 plus hours in between feedings.  (2 week old waking only once...LOVE IT!) 
*April 5: Camdyn's first bath in the kitchen sink.  She screamed through most of it! A few days later we put her in the small baby bath inside the bathtub with Larkyn.  MUCH BETTER!  Not sure who loved it more....Camdyn or Larkyn?
*Camdyn's first Easter.  We spent the weekend in Iowa with my family.  Larkyn went on two Easter Egg hunts and loved dying Easter eggs. 
*Larkyn is getting the hang of pumping like Mommy!  She insists on having her own bottles and shields to "pump".  She even makes the sound with her mouth.
*Larkyn is talking like crazy!  One of her newest phrases is "Oh Nuts!" (Thanks to Tracey:)) and "Hold Me" to Mommy.  By the end of the month she was using 8 word sentences and at dinner one night said "I want my mustard ketchup with my chicken."
*We went to Winona to see some of Shea's baseball buddies.  Larkyn loved swimming and going down the frog slide at the hotel with Cayden who surprised us by coming with Janny.
*The week of April 23rd: Many good 8 hour over night stretches for Camdyn...WAHOO!
*Camdyn gave her first smiles on April 24th.  One for mommy and one for Kayce.  Many big smiles followed for the rest of the month and so on...
*We had a couple playdates with Hannah and Melanie this month.  We met up with them at their house to see some of the girls from the church house clan and their family came over for dinner and play later in the month.  We love our time spent with the Brink family!
*We discovered 2 bottom molars in the back of Larkyn mouth on the 30th.  Could explain some crankiness?
