Days are flying by too fast and I cannot seem to keep this blog up to date. We are already in the month of December! November went by so fast. I absolutely loved Thanksgiving with Jeff, Cortney, and Patrick staying at our house and my mom and dad visiting. We ate some great food. Cameron made a fantastic turkey in his smoker and all the sides were de-lish! Some of my favorite moments were taking family pictures then going to chick fil-a for dinner. Watching the new Spider Man movie with Jeff and Cortney. Oh, and Jeff bought us all ben and jerry's, yup he's a good brother. Shopping with my mom, sister, and sis-in-law. Watching all the cousins play together. My dad meeting Isaac for the first time. Going out to breakfast with my mom and dad. Channing's reaction to seeing Anna and Elsa characters at the Scentsy Commons Christmas lights--he's super bashful and his teenage years are going to be hilarious. One not so awesome moment was Channing barfing at the Crawford's house moments after arriving there for a family dinner the day before my parents were going to leave. Luckily he only threw up that one time and was fine the next day. Thank heavens!
New things with the Hamilton's:
Justin and I have been working out more. We got a gym membership and I've had lots of fun going to exercise classes a few times a week. It feels good to be active and work on getting stronger. I feel like for the last 4+ years I've been so busy with either being pregnant or just having a kid that I couldn't really get into exercising. But I'm getting into it baby!
Mckenzie is doing better with her bowel problems. We give her 1tsp a day of a laxative called Senexon. This has kept her from being too constipated which in turn helps her not have small frequent poops all day. Lucky me! I'm changing 3-5 poops a day instead of 10+ a day. She still has bad days though which I assume is related to her diet.
Channing is doing great at Pre-K. He seems to really enjoy it. He's awesome at writing his name now. Most of the time he spells it CHANNN and then writes the I and G randomly on the page. But he's getting better. This morning I came downstairs to find Channing sitting on the couch in Justin's yellow Packer's hoodie. He told me that he wasn't going to get dressed or do the dishes. I asked "why's that?" Then he lifted up the hoodie to show that he was already dressed and then ran to the dishwasher to show me that the silverware was already emptied. I assumed that Justin had something to do with this so I messaged Justin at work and he said that Channing must have done all of that on his own after Justin left for work. Moments like these make me think that hey I must be doing something right as a mom and Channing is a special kid. (We got lucky.)
Isaac is a beast. He's a serious tank of a baby. He turned 6 months old a few weeks ago. He'll wake up once or twice a night to be fed and put back to bed. He takes about 3 naps a day. And he's finally rolling from his back to his tummy. He's pretty good at eating solid foods. He's 6 month wellness check is in a few days. I'm thinking he'll be 25 or 26 lbs. No joke!
Okay, it's getting late and I shall bid you farewell.... This momma needs her sleep if you don't want me to be a major grouch! Good night.
