Pioneer Day and Xander Is A Week Old!

Yesterday was Pioneer Day! I was kinda bummed on Saturday when Tremonton does their celebration because Kyler fell asleep before the fireworks so we didn't get to enjoy them. But we did get to enjoy some yesterday. We also started moving so that was our first part of the day. We then headed over to J.J.'s parents house. They had grilled some hamburgers and hot dogs and had a ton of food for us all to eat. Kyler had a blast eating and being able to play with all his cousins. It started to rain on us but that didn't stop the kids from playing. Once we got the kids inside we were able to just sit down and visit for awhile, and then headed off to go to the SnoShack in garland!! We love that place! We then headed back to my moms to pick up the babies bed, we actually braved going back to the apartment and dealing with both boys on our own. When we got to my moms there were fireworks going off in every direction, and Kyler was in heaven! When one set got done another one would start in a different direction and he was just so happy and giddy...which is an unusual thing these days! Once the fireworks started to die down we headed back to the apartment. We didn't really have to deal with both boys for to long since Kyler fell asleep on the way home and Xander did right after he ate. It was very nice being back there even though it felt a bit empty with a lot of our stuff moved out.

 Also Yesterday marked Xander being a week old!! It has went by super fast. But he is doing great so far! He hasn't dealt with any jaundice and is still such a good baby. He even slept for 7 hours straight the other night! He now sleeps around 4-5 hours at night and still 3 hours between feedings during the day. He has been such a good baby I just feel spoiled and am hoping it will last! He has the longest little arms, I have never seen such long arms on a baby. It makes me laugh when I undress him and he stretches them out, but he actually has long everything it seems like. He is starting to out grow his newborn clothing length wise already but the 0-3 month stuff looks so baggy on him, this is also something we dealt with Kyler but I think even Kyler filled them out just a bit more.
 I sure love this little guy though!
We are getting his newborn pictures taken tomorrow and I'm so excited to see how they turn out!
