Weight Gain!

Well, I am proud to say Miss Kendall is gaining weight. Her appetite has really come full circle. She loves the Pediasure and has been eating everything without any fuss. Kamden and I have been "puree junkies" putting anything and everything we can think of into the food processor to give Kendall a variety. I wouldn't be surprised if they take her off the Pediasure since she is gaining weight. Guess then she goes straight to whole milk. Yep, that's right. She's officially weaned. She's only nursing at night. I feel better now too. It's been nice to go head to the gym or store without thinking...hmmm, will Kendall need to eat first!? I feel like I'm getting my independence back....somewhat!

Sad to say...my grandfather passed away on Friday. Just a few days short of his 95th birthday. He lives in DC, and my dad flew up on Friday morning, but got there too late. His memorial service is on Tuesday. I won't be able to go to the service, but my dad, Granny, and aunts are in my thoughts this week. I miss my dad so much. Its been a reality check for sure having him out of town! My sister and I have been blessed to have our Grandparents as long as we have. My other grandpa (who I was REALLY close to) passed last summer. So I'm fresh out of grandpas now:(

Kam and I made a trip to the bookstore yesterday and loaded up on books. We're reading Twilight together right now. (don't judge me! Kamden is a very mature 8 year old...and I need to see what all the fuss is about) He got some Magic Tree House books, and I was successful in getting a book that didn't have anything to do with Special Needs, or Therapy or Self Help! Actually, I'm embarrassed to say I bought a book called Bitter is the New Black. Totally mindless read! But I've been enjoying it!

Hope you all had a peaceful and relaxing weekend like we did! Have a great week!

Sorry to hear about your Grandpa. Both of them, actually. Yes, you and your sister were truly blessed to have them for so long.

Glad that Kendall is gaining weight. She is absolutely adorable.

Yay for Kendall!! Yay for you!! The Twilight books are AWESOME!! Guess who suggested them to me???? Give up? Aunt Connie!!! Enjoy your mindless read also, we all need one of those every now and then. I recently finished The Glass Castle. It is pretty fasinating (just in case you need another book to add to the mix)!!
