What's happening with us Hamilton's....

By
It's been almost a whole month since my last blog post.  Fall weather is in the air.  The past few days have been a lot cooler.  Which is a nice change from the hot days, but I'm still not ready for Fall to be here! It feels like Summer has come and gone too quickly.  But I'm sure we'll still have some warmer days this month.  And I'm happy we're living in Meridian, where it doesn't get too cold in the Winter.
Mckenzie is almost 2 months old.  She's started smiling and cooing a lot.  She is a great baby. Happy and healthy.  Although she does like to test our patience at night.  She is quite a grunter.  When she's waking up or falling asleep she wiggles and grunts.  Today I moved her pack n play into her bedroom.  We're going to try out having her sleep in her own room tonight.  We'll she how that goes....  I'll probably be up every hour just to check on her!

Channing is still an awesome big brother.  Today Mckenzie was crying a lot for a good 10 minutes and I couldn't figure out why.  She had a clean diaper, didn't need to burp, and wouldn't eat.  And when she was crying he was so concerned.  He put his hand on her and said "it's okay Kenzie, don't cry."  I hope he's always this sweet to her!
I think she's wondering "how much can I eat before I puke?"

Snuggly little baby.

Buddies

You'd never guess from this picture that they were yelling at each other 30 seconds ago.  Friend-enemies.

We were all a little cold this morning. 

8 weeks old!

Channing's favorite game right now is hide n seek.  And he's getting good at it!

My reality check

By
Remember how in my last few posts I talked about how we were teaching Channing to put himself back to sleep by letting him cry it out?  Since Channing has been sick for over a week that has all gone down the drain....  The poor kid is so congested all the time.  When we wakes up at night he usually will not take his binky and fall back asleep.  Instead he needs his nose suctioned, which usually requires Justin holding Channing's head still or it's impossible.  And lately he will not go back to sleep at all until he's fed again.  Last night it was every 3 hours.  I don't know if it's because his throat hurts or he just wants to be held.  Whatever the reason, nights have been a little rough around here.  Oh, and his naps during the day have been pretty bad.  Crying a lot before falling asleep and then only sleeping for 20 or 30 minutes.  Motherhood is definitely a 24/7 job.  With no lunch breaks.  And get this!  Channin...

Happy Halloween!

By
I wanted to do a quick Halloween post so I won't ever forget how adorable Channing was.  He was a scarecrow this Halloween.  We used a pair of his overalls and I sewed on a few patches of material and then we stuffed his pockets with straw.  The paint on the nose thing didn't work so well...he rubbed it off the first time around.  Our ward did a trunk-or-treat in the parking lot.  Channing was a little skeptical about it all when we first started.  But he quickly got the hang of walking up to people, grabbing candy, and putting it in his bucket.  Someone gave him a sucker and he immediately had to have it!  At least he's easy to please!  Such a friendly scarecrow...had to say bye to the trick-or-treaters as they left.

60 Things I Love About My Mom

By
In honor of my mom turning 60 years old on February 5th I have written 60 things that I love about her. 1. My mom lives the gospel. 2. She taught me how to follow the prophet. 3. My mom loves to travel. 4. With each baby I had she took the time to be there.  And then stayed for at least a week following the birth to help me at home.  She even brought be breakfast in bed. 5. My mom always fulfills her calling.  I remember when she was Relief Society President she was gone on my 15th birthday at an Enrichment meeting.  I was a bit peeved about it.  But now when I think about it I am inspired by her ability to 100% fulfill her calling and show up for her fellow RS sisters. 6. She taught me how to cook.  We always had a vegetable on the plate. 7. She thoroughly adores her grandkids. 8. My mom can do hard things. 9. My mom is a RN which is no easy job.  I know her job is often stressful.  She's an amazing labor and delivery nurs...
