Easter weekend, rice cereal, 18 weeks old (random post!)

this dude is 18 weeks old (19 weeks tomorrow)

and i am trippin out!!

i can't believe how the days/weeks/months are flying by!

this week we got to see aunt ashley and cousin taysom at 

aunt carly and megan's dance recital

^posing with aunt carly^

i tell you what, this boy LOVES his sleep. 

and i am so grateful for that!

he is so hilarious. the other day i put him in his crib for a nap and when i went to check on him he was wide awake sticking his feet through the bars!!

besides worrying that he was going to get his chicken legs stuck, i had to laugh.

they finally got jake's headstone put out, so krozby and i took some flowers out there and went to see it. 

i love the way it turned out <3

i went to the mall to get krozby's picture taken with the Easter bunny...

besides being a waste of $20 (call me cheap, but come on!)

he seemed to love the creepy bunny!

the bunny (gma & gpa raschke) came through and brought kroz this cute little rocking horse/baseball mitt! 

he also got some eggs filled with candy and money from his gma and gpa arnold!

^cute cousins on easter^

^krozby with some of his favorite girls^

so at his 4 month check up the doctor told us we could start feeding krozby some new foods.

this weekend we bought some cute new spoons and some rice cereal to try out!

you know you're parents when you get excited to buy baby spoons!

(branden probably wasn't all that excited, but i was haha)

he made a face at the first taste and ended up spitting some of it out but he did eat a few spoonfuls :)

my baby is getting big!!

3 month old pictures

i decided to have krozby's pictures taken when he was a newborn, at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and a year old.

i know a few people who have done this and it's so fun to see how much they change over their first year.

plus, who doesn't love having professional pictures done?

anyway, i just got his 3 month pictures back and i love them!
here are a few of my favorites---

this last picture is such a sweet one to me.

after jake passed away, one of his friends parents took a bunch of his clothes and had this quilt made out of them. 

i'm so glad we got a picture with it.

all of his photo's were taken by

Ashley Schmit

Krozby 4 months

my sweet little guy is 4 months old!

he has always been a fairly chill dude but he is getting quite the personality.

he definitely has found his voice in the last few weeks and will shriek out in excitement and laugh and giggle.

he is so fun!

(i just love this video SO much!!)

we had our 4 month check up yesterday

weight- 12lbs 12oz (12th percentile)

height- 25 inches (65th percentile)

head cir- 17 inches (75th percentile)

he is tall, skinny, and still has a pretty big head on those shoulders! 

at 4 months krozby....

eats 5 ounces every 3 hours

wears 3 month clothes (they are getting small)

wears size 1 diapers (about to start 1-2 size)

has rolled from his belly to his back

smiles constantly

at the doctor we found out that he has eczema (dry, itchy skin) so we are using a steroid cream to try and clear that up.

he also has a flat spot on one side of his head (that he's had since he was 1-2 months old) that we are hoping will be rounded out by his 6 month appointment. 

he is such a happy boy and we are so in love with him!!
