Kempston Catch-up

Shaun, Finn, and I serendipitously traveled down to Sacramento last week to attend my college roomate's wedding. It was fun to see old friends and have everyone meet Finn. He did incredibly well on both plane rides (au natural of course-they banned kid cold medicine, remember?)- Shaun and I beyond thankful. Here's a brief moment of Shaun and I enjoying dinner while Finn was sleeping during the reception. Today was also my cousin Mary's baby shower. Baby Caseley is scheduled to arrive on April 14th and we are all so excited to meet our new boy or girl cousin. Mary looked beautiful and had the glow of an expectant mom awaiting her new baby. Finn joined the party a little late but was still able to take a picture (although asleep) with his new cousin-to-be. Two grammas for the price of finn.

Learning how to stick out my tongue and talk. He's very verbal right now (like his dad). I'll be posting video's soon of his 'talking.' He usually tells a lot of jokes.

I hope everyone had a fabulous Easter! We were lucky to spend it with both sides of the family and Finn had a great time showing off his smiles. Happy Spring!

8 weeks old



Finn is 8 weeks old today and we did some tummy time on the floor with a big mirror (see below). Then I put him on his back to see if he could start reaching out for a toy. He hit the toy with his hand so many times! Mom was very proud. :) Look for the cute smile he gives me at the end of the video.

SLO-MOTION sleep tips: the one-two punch

We've taught Finn how to put himself to sleep. Baths. During which he gives himself a Haymaker uppercut. His left hand does not know what his right hand is doing.  However, his face clearly knows.

Actually, he is simply trying to eat his hand—unaware of the paparazzi (dad).
