Yes, I know...what happened to Gavin's 3rd month? - Here it is in a nutshell - wah, wah, poop, wah, wah, smile (finally!). And several many bottles too. So today is his official 4 month birthday!!  And all of a sudden he has gotten a personality, is smiling, is cooing, and is more fun...even for Gabe!  We have seen some 6-7 hour stretches of sleep in the last couple of weeks...not all in a row...but at least twice a week he sleeps through the night.  And tonight I started him on a new sleep schedule to see if we can all get some more zzz's around this place. Wish us luck...we need it.  And as I'm writing this I can tell you it's working...at least the last 15 minutes it has :o)   KEGG family update ~ Ken turns thirty something this upcoming week, Gabe is 20 months and is still a sweetheart (mushed in with some silly tantrum outburts), Gavin is growing leap and bounds and has beautiful eyes and super chubby cheeks and I just got a huge haircut ~ super short and I love it!  We took a gamble on a day trip to Friday HArbor a couple of Saturdays ago...and I say gamble because it was a 13 hour trip (7 hours RT on a boat and 5 on land - with no car...just our feet and a stroller).  And thank you Jesus...we all did great and there were no meltdowns...not even from Ken!  It was a beautiful trip and the sky and water were a perfect color blue.  As boring as that sounds...that was our summer vacation.  With a newborn and a young toddler...we just didn't have the energy to plan much else this summer. We did make it to the zoo and also Pike Place market. Super low key, huh?  Oh well...there was a lot going on otherwise to keep us busy (work, my parents, my parents, my parents...j/k...kinda). A special KEGG shout out to Grammy Lorraine for coming up in August. I can't really say she was visiting, since the poor thing hardly left our house because she was helping watch the kids while I went down to LA for work for several days. Thank you thank you Lorraine!  Well...there is probably lots more I can write about..but you get the gist of it. Kids, work, little sleep, messy house, starting to rain in Seattle, need to lose baby weight, still driving the minivan, etc. We're here...give us a call!
