Shad Mecham Family

We have been having a bit of a hectic summer, or maybe it seems that way because I am trying to cram things in between Capri's feeding sessions. I am happy to report that she is doing much better with her nursing. I am not going to say she's mastered it until we visit the Dr next week and her weight is good. She has been nursing exclusively for the past few days and most of the time will go at least an hour and a half before acting hungry again. It has us hopeful. I can't believe that she will be two months on Sunday. I guess time flies when you are having fun. Capri is a really good baby, as long as she is being held during her wake time. This puts a damper on what can be accomplished during the day. At least she does well at night, once she falls asleep whether it's 11pm or 1 am.
Brenden has had all the adventures this month. He spent a week out at Grandma and Grandpa's in Roosevelt, and had fun playing with his cousins and helping Grandpa. It made our house quiet because Ainsley didn't have anyone to make lots of noise with. She missed Brenden that week and wouldn't go to bed on her own. Brenden is also looking forward to his fifth birthday, that is quickly approaching. His birthday wish list keeps growing. Brenden is also enjoying his summer Smart Start class.
Ainsley loves to help with Capri. She is always asking to hold her. Ainsley is also very willing to fetch items for Capri, like diapers, blankets, and burp cloths. Her other favorite activities include picking on Brenden and jumping on the couch.
