Supermom

I was telling a friend of mine all about Keagans Birthday plans, what I have done so far and what I still have left to do. Jokingly she replied "you are such a supermom"! I laughed it off at first and then after we finished talking I thought to myself, why would someone think I am a supermom? I am so far from being a supermom. Everyday I learn something new about being a mom. One day you think you have something figured out and then next day everything changes. I love being a mom but I certainly am not a better mother than anyone else. I make mistakes everyday and learn from them. I don't want anyone to think that I am a better mother than they are. I think as mothers we should all support each other and share information to make our daily lives easier! Here is a picture of Keagan wearing his favorite blanket as a superman cape!

These Shoes are made for walking

Last week I got Keagan a new pair of shoes and he wasn't to sure what to think about them! We tried them out for the first time when we went to watch Sean play softball. I asked Keagan to point to his new shoes for the picture. He is such a smarty pants! I think all his little shoes are so cute but I miss seeing his cute little toes!

Poor Keagan has been really sick lately. He has had an ear infection and a throat infection. He has been running a fever, coughing and sneezing. He wakes up several times a night crying! I feel like I have a newborn again. I didn't realize how much I miss my sleep. Hopefully he will start to feel better soon and return to our sweet boy. Here is a picture of my cranky boy:

ugh!

Some people have no filters! I would never ask a women when she is due unless I was 100% positive that she was pregnant, I don't just assume information. I cant count how many times people ask me or refer to Keagan as a girl. He is NOT a girl. He will be wearing a blue outfit and he is in a green stroller and people still think he is a girl. I know he has longer hair and its curly so I can only guess that's what makes him look girly. Ugh..Some people!

11 months

Keagan is 11 months old today and I can't believe it! Time really does go by so fast. It seems strange to think that he will be a toddler soon. He is starting to look less like a baby and more like a little boy :( We are so close to walking on our own. He is standing alone for longer periods of time and taking just a few steps on his own before fear sets in. He wants to walk so bad that he gets frustrated. I on the other have mixed feelings, I want him to walk but then its seems like true Independence from me! Here are some new things he is up to:

He loves to open and shut ANYTHING, including the toilet (yuck)

He feeds himself small pieces of food

He gives Kisses to us

He says Mama, Mom, Dada, Up, Ya, Ba-Ba, No, Hi and Hey

Baby Brayden

We went to visit my Sweet friend Marcie and her little boy Brayden. Keagan loves babies and was so excited to play with Brayden. He doesn't understand that you have to be gentle with tiny babies so I had to watch him very carefully. He Kept taking the pacifier out of Braydens mouth. It is so hard to believe that he was once that tiny. We had fun with Marcie and baby Brayden. I cant wait to start our stroller fit workout class. Its going to be so much fun!

Beachy Keen

I love the beach! I really think that I could lay in the sand and listen to the waves everyday. When I was little I dreamed of being a mermaid. Silly I know, but something about the ocean makes me very happy. We went to Destin for a week and had a wonderful time. Keagan really enjoyed the beach. He wasn't to sure about the sand but he loved to water. He is such a trooper, he is really happy in any situation. It was so nice to get away as a family. We stuffed ourselves with seafood everyday. Yummy!! We hope to continue this yearly trip. I will keep this post short due to the large amount of pictures (oh you know that's all you care about anyways!!) haha

Graduation

Keagan is now helmet free!! At his appointment his head had changed so much that we got the go ahead to to stop wearing the helmet. Sean and I are so excited that he has a perfect head (well as close as he is going to get). I'm so glad that we decided to do the helmet therapy, the treatment was worth the results. I don't have any before and after pictures yet so you will just have to make do with a few other pictures of our cutie..:)
