1 Month Checkup!

Aiden Patrick Webber is offcially 1 month old! (and some change) ;)

Aiden hit 1 month on October 23rd, and we had his 1 month check up this morning :) Besides his cold/chest mess he got a clean bill of health!

At birth        1 month
W-6.8 lbs         9.2lbs
L-20 inches    21.5 inches
             Head Circ-12inches       14.8 inches                         

His pediatrcian said he looks great and his growth is right on target so im VERY happy about that, I told him that if it was possible for infants to have a tape worm, Aiden would have it simply because the little booger loves to eat, and when he wants food, ya better get him food. He thought that was great and it wasn't strange that my 1 month old likes to down 5 oz. of milk at a time. haha, Goooo Aiden :)
and oh yeah, I def cried when he got his shot. Don't judge me. ;)

Our only negative- his yucky cold. I had him at the ped. 2 days ago for it because he was sounding so junky when he was lying flat and I was nervous because he wasn't sleeping well, 2 days ago his lungs were clear but today they said they sound a tad wheezy... but it wasn't constant, so he's going back in a couple of days to have another look over, and if he's still wheezy he'll get a nebulizer treatment, :(

Look at my sweet bandaid dad!

Fussy britches


I thank God that he is growing like a weed :)


Pat,
   I love Aiden with all my heart but I would have much rather you there when he got his shots..When he got his foot pricked you handled it much better than me, Im such a weenie haha, You would be proud of your boy.. not so much of his mama. He screamed for about 10 seconds and then just made the carp face haha, he was just hungry after that.. go figure. You might get your normal wife back one day. (Dont count on it though) ;)
     I Love you with everything I have,
                xoxo Kelsey

Aiden Patrick's 1st Thanksgiving :D

Aiden woke up on the wrong side of the crib on thanksgiving :(

He had a bellyache pretty much all day and I've never heard him scream and cry the way he did... it was breaking my heart because I couldn't do anything to make him feel better.. So we watched the  Macy's day parade with me holding and bouncing him all around the living room haha, there was no way I could lay him down because he just started screaming like he was in pain, it was pitiful.

We went to my Aunt's for dinner and Aiden was looking pretty fly in his sweater vest and corduroys ;) There was amazinggggg food as always, My grandparents made the turkey and it was delish, and my Aunt is a pretty good cook too, I love the way she fixes green beans, mmmm. We had dressing,mashed potatoes,rolls, orange salad, mac and cheese and tons of other yummyness. Needless to say I was stuffed when I left.

From there we made our way to my MIL's and got to see more family :) Aiden started feeling yucky again so Sarah and I took turns bouncing him and rubbing his belly, Oh and thank goodness for her because she went and got him Gas drops because im a terrible mother and didn't have any haha but they did the trick I think :) that and his Uncle Damon the baby whisperer. As soon as he got him Aiden stopped fussing all together. Geez. My little love also got to meet his Uncle Zach for the 1st time! Im pretty sure Zach would have put him in his suitcase if I turned away for more than a minute, It was sweet seeing them together..and they look alot alike as well...well, they are both webbers so what do I expect haha. Def. made me miss my husband though..


Mommy and Baby

Kendall's first thanksgiving too :)

My pawpaw with his 2 youngest grandbabies. I love this picture.

Uncle Zach made him feel better :)

"I just don't feel good Mom, quit taking my picture"


All in all it was a good day, Im glad Aiden feels better.. well besides his snotty nose. but thats a different story. I thank God for having a day at all. :)

Pat,
Wherever ya are I hope ya had the best day ya could. I miss you bunches and Love you more. Can't wait until next year when we can spend the holidays with as a little family. <3 Happy thanksgiving love!,
    <3 xoxo Your wife.

Im thankful for....

Not to sound cliche, but my life.

Im blessed, what can I say? Im so thankful that God has given me the life I have. I never saw myself married with a son at this point in my life, but I am beyond thankful for both of those things. My son has given me more joy in the past month than I could ever explain, I truley feel that I was supposed to be a mom, it's completely exhausting.. but I wouldn't trade it for anything :) ...well, maybe some sleep ;)


Im thankful that even with my new little lovebug, I can still finish school... I know that not every gets that opportunity, but my family is making it possible for me. a HUGE hug for all of them.

Im thankful that I have the friends I do, Yes.. everyone says this, but I don't know where I would be with out them, especially the last couple of years..between  tears, late night phone calls, deployments,pregnancy, running off to get married, jumping planes to tropical islands, and who knows what else..they have supported my every single (almost) decesion. Love you all :)

Im thankful for my husband...
Don't get me wrong, Im super happy that I get to spend the holidays with my family and friends, but in a way I feel guilty that he is roaming around in a foreign country doing who knows what..I find myself being constantly torn between feeling an overwhelming pride and overwhelming guilt...I just wish he was able to see Aiden's 1st holidays, but I know he's here in heart. ... maybe once these crazy postpardom hormones calm down I'll be normal again haha.

Im thankful for so many more things, but those are some highlights..

I miss you handsome, Goodnight <3

Starting this

I randomly decided while driving down the road today that I wanted to start a blog, I figured it would be a great way to keep my husband updated, even if he can't read it now..which it looks like is the case, I think it'll be neat for him to look back on when he gets home. I want to keep up with Aiden's life on this thing, so he can see his milestones and watch him grow.

Another thing-I promised Pat I would learn to cook while he was gone (haha!) so i'm going to try to cook a meal a week and write about it :) Im pretty excited to keep this updated :)
