We had Kaelyn & Ben's wedding this weekend so the slideshow below is all pictures from this weekend. I'm also downloading a few I have of Levin eating cereal for the first time, Levin in his jumparoo and the boys visiting Santa!

Levin's 4 month checkup

Levin had his four month check up today. We definitely have another big boy on our hands! He was 15lbs 11ozs and 26 1/4" tall. That puts him in the 50-75th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for height. He's over a pound bigger and an inch taller then Cruz was at this age and we always thought Cruz was big! I sure hope my boys like to play football! Anyways both of the boys are doing great and its getting more fun every day to watch them interact with each other. I can't wait till they can play together even though I know I'm gonna be having wrestling matches going on in my living room every day!

Rolling Over

Levin rolled over once when he was 5 weeks but today he started rolling from his stomach to his back all the time. Here's a quick video I caught...

Happy Halloween!!!

I was transferring my videos to my computer and had to share a few...

2 month checkup

Levin had his 2 month check up on Monday, he's a healthy little boy and growing like crazy. He's already 12lbs 12oz and 24 1/4" long! I looked back and Cruz was only 11lbs 3oz and 23" long and we always thought he was big! Life with two kids is getting easier and easier everyday, mainly because Levin is happier on his new formula and Cruz is adjusting to having Levin around so he's not throwing as many temper tantrums :)

We've had a busy last couple of weeks so I have lots of pictures to share, click on the slideshow to see the pictures at full size...

Well Levin is 7 weeks old today and growing so fast. He's been pretty cranky in the evenings for us but we started him on some gas relief drops on Sunday and they seem to be helping alot. We spent every evening for the last 4 weeks walking around with him, bouncing him, pretty much whatever we could do to get him to be happy for a few minutes before he'd start screaming again. He'd eventually wear himself out with the screaming around 9 or so and pass out for a few hours before his next bottle. The rest of the time he didn't scream like that but he never was very happy and always wanted to be held. Well now that we've started these drops we have such a happy baby on our hands, he smiles all the time and I now get to rock him to sleep while sitting in the recliner!

I went back to work last Thursday, I'm still just working two mornings a week and then when I can from home. Levin seems to be doing really well at daycare those two mornings and I think Cruz likes having his baby brother there with him. We went to the pumpkin patch last week and we're heading there again next week, Cruz loves it there! I'll post pictures after we go next week. Also, my cousins will be here this weekend from Arizona and Jake's cousin will be here from California next weekend so I'm sure I'll have plenty of pictures to share from two fun filled weekends:) Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful fall weather!!!

I was going through some pictures I've taken on my phone over the past 2 or 3 weeks, thought I'd share them...




such chubby cheeks!

Cruz loves to help wash bottles

Just a few pictures...

Things in the Aufenkamp household are pretty good. We've adjusted to having a baby around and things are finally starting to settle down. Levin went through a phase where he cried from about 8pm till 10 or 11pm every night. It only lasted a couple weeks and I think we're finally over that, thank goodness! He's still more cranky at night then he is during the day but not too bad. Cruz has gotten used to having Levin around and now whenever he doesn't know where Levin his he'll ask "where's levin?" He still likes to help out too, his favorites are getting a diaper out for me when I change him, putting his bottle in the sink when I'm done feeding him and probably his most favorite is burping him, sometimes he burps a little too hard and sometimes Levin's head gets burped but I guess it's just Cruz's way of toughening Levin up:)



Stretch!









All cozy in his carseat










Getting so long!






Pretty cute when he cries till the crying lasts 2 or 3 hours :)

Levin had his two week check up today, he's 8lbs 14oz. He's in the 50th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for his height. Wanted to post a few pictures from the past few days. Levin got his first bath the other night, at first he screamed but then realized he liked the warm water and actually really enjoyed his bath. Cruz is adjusting to being a big brother and still loves to help with everything, he definitely gets jealous at times but for the most part he's really good. Hope everyone has a nice long Holiday weekend!!!
