Atomic Elbow

I'm afraid we have a tough one on our hands.. Cooper comes in every night and he and Campbell wrestle. Cooper has taught him the "atomic elbow".. He slaps his elbow three times and then slams whatever is in his way.. while saying "BOOM".. In this particular case it's Kenzie. Usually it's a pile of clothes or all the bedding placed in a big pile. He doesn't slap his elbow in this video he just tries to pancake Makenzie... He has also been known to try and "atomic elbow" a boy who wasn't quite ready for the atomic elbow. Thank goodness Mom caught him mid air as Campbell did a crow hop and then tried to spread eagle the child. Little Swayze has to be tough.. her day of the atomic elbow is coming..

The First of Many...

Bumps, Bruises and Black Eyes.. The kids and I went to the delta this past weekend for a baby shower and a wedding shower. The trip was great.. until Sunday afternoon. Campbell was standing in the kitchen chair eating cheetos, when all the sudden his foot slipped. He fell and hit the corner of another chair. I wasn't a foot from him and turned my back for 2 seconds. We all cried. To make me feel better, I let two nurses look and feel his head.. I emailed pictures to the pediatrician and talked to her on the phone. Thank goodness the location of the where he hit is a very very hard place to fracture. You can ask Campbell where's his goose egg and he points to his head. The bump has gone down, but his eye is turning blue. He will now sit in chairs when asked.. Lesson learned


Right after the accident

Four days after the fall..

In Honor of Cacky...

My mom stayed with me the week after Swayze was born. She was Campbell's 24/7 entertainment. Mom is not much of a babie's mom...she prefers Campbells size. Every morning when Campbell woke, mom would take Campbell outside to play in the mud puddle in the driveway. They would stay outside for an hour or so, come in, give Campbell a bath, and play trucks until it was nap time. She basically work him out! I think after the week was over, Mom was a little worn out herself. Today I took Campbell out to play in the mud puddle for the first time since Mom has been gone. I don't think he liked it as much as he did with Cacky... Might have been because she would get down and dirty with him. I chose to take pictures instead!


Where was Ms. Priss while all the fun was taking place?

Sitting in the back of my vehicle, like a little lady, propped up on the boppy.

I love this little face! Chipped front tooth and all!



Notice he has on two different shoes.. We could find the match to either one quick enough. He was ready to be "ou-shy"!

Resemblence?

I guess the pink paci in the tub with Swayze kinda gives her away. Everyone thinks they look just alike.. In these pictures they do. Some days they look a lot alike and others they look nothing alike. They definitely have the same turned up little nose. Swayze looks a good bit smaller, but I really think she is bigger than what Campbell was at four weeks.

We went to the Dr. on Monday for her two week check up. She weighed in at 9lbs 3 oz. She's gained two pounds since we left the hospital. She was in the 60 percentile for weight and 58th for height. Campbell never made it passed the 40th percentile in height or weight!



Bed Head

Campbell woke from a nap yesterday morning with a pretty stylish hair do.. I honestly didn't fix it like this, he really woke up looking like a rock star!
