Sigh. How did that happen?

And ETA, we ARE going to get her own chair. I promise. It’s on Santa’s Christmas list.

2 Months

1 Month

Kate had her 2 month checkup today, she’s 11lbs 12oz and 23 1/2 inches long. 75th percentile for both height and weight.

She also had her shots and shockingly wasn’t too happy. Three shots and one oral medicine. We also gave Dash a flu vaccine, and I’m still on the fence about it. The determining factor was The Little Gym, it’s really the only time he’s around other kids. They had the nasal vaccine instead of the shot, so we got that, and I didn’t realize at the time that the nasal one is the live vaccine. So I hope he doesn’t have any problem with that. As much as I hate getting him shots I feel a lot better about a dead vaccine than a live one. The shot is dead. Boo. Oh, well. Too late now. Hopefully he’ll be fine. Kate’s too young to get one and I doubt John and I will. Dash is the one who licks toys and stuff.

And for comparison…

2 weeks…

Kate smiling at her Daddy…

Dash being a cheeseball…

I was playing with the white balance setting on this one, and it’s way off, but I still like it. And I’m pretty sure he was about to whack me with that frog behind his head…

Happy Friday everyone!! Thank GOODNESS It’s Friday!!!

My BFF from Bentley made Kate THE most adorable baby blanket…. See?

And the DETAILS… oh the details…

Yes, that’s a crocheted bunny. And there are like 6 of them.

As Dash would say “teeny… tiny… baby flowers!!”

Kate: “Don’t you like my blanket???”

Now head over to Debbi’s blog and see how ridiculously hard this puppy was. It makes me even MORE appreciative. You rock Debbi! Fair Isle crocheted bunnies aren’t easy!!

Thank GOD for grace periods.

So for those of you that don’t know, while I was on leave my domains came up for renewel and I didn’t realize the credit card was invalid so the shut down both of my websites!! I had to pay a fee to get it back up but I freaking don’t care. I did let cakesbycolleen go though. It wasn’t worth 120.00 to reinstate it.

So in the meantime, I made Kate’s Blog non-private and started posting over there. Really, I need to have a blog not tied to my website. But for whatever reason, I just can’t let this one go. So I’m just going to post to both blogs. Same info on both, follow whichever one you want. It might be gay, but I can’t help it. I love this blog.

Here’s the link to Kate’s blog if you want to follow it on blogger…

2. The youngest Dixon…

3. Kate will be 6 weeks old tomorrow… I don’t know where that time went. I’m sure that’s the story of the rest of my life though…

4. I go back to work tomorrow. I think I’ll be ok. I’ve liked being home for the past 6 weeks and I’m not sure how I’ll function tomorrow without a nap but if working is going to continue being my normal then I kind of feel non-normal without it. If that makes sense.

5. There’s an assistant teacher position at Calhoun that I think John’s going to take. It works with his schedule and will bring in some extra cash.

6. I’ve been thinking a lot about Halloween costumes. I can’t believe it’s so close.

7… it’s the new 10…
