A Day of Firsts

Yesterday was a big day for our family...we actually left the house! Since coming home from the hospital, we haven't left the house very much. Of course Kristoffer leaves daily for work, but I am still not suppose to lift more than 10lbs, which pretty much makes me housebound during the week. Not only did we leave the house, the day was also filled with a lot of firsts for both of the boys. It was Kaden 1st time going to church, and he was perfect, sleeping through the whole service!
After church we went into Hastings to have some lunch, and Karter sat in a booster seat for the first time. He did really well and only got restless a few times!
Of course the whole eating out thing was Kaden's first restaurant visit! As you can see he really enjoyed himself...again sleeping through the whole thing! One of the main reasons we went to Hastings was because we needed to get some groceries. Kaden woke up hungry just as we were pulling in, so Daddy and Karter went shopping while I fed Kaden. All in all we were very proud of ourselves for surviving our first outings with two kids. We were even still early to church!!

In the evenings while I am giving Kaden a bath, Kristoffer has been working on teaching Karter to pick up all of his toys before his bath. I don't have any evidence of it, but yesterday was the first time that Karter picked up and put away all of his books by himself!!

we're not even early to church and we have zero babies (planned or existing). that in itself is quite an accomplishment.
