Busy January!

We have been so blessed this month- I passed my state nursing boards on Tuesday, January 26 and got hired on with a Hospice agency and started working three days later! I have a friend in my ward that works there and offered me a position and started me as soon as she could! I think it will work out well for our little family because I can pretty much make up my own schedule and I won't have to work that many hours like I would if I worked at a hospital. We are very excited to finally reap the rewards of all the hard work I've done over the past three years!
I can't believe that Paxton will be four weeks old on Monday! For the first two weeks after the baby came home, my mom and mother-in-law came to help out. Mostly they played with Caiden and kept him entertained so that I could attend to the baby, but it was a HUGE help to have them here! I also was studying for my state nursing boards during this time too so I really appreciated that they were close enough to help out.
My mom had a craft for Caiden to make every day that she came. This picture is one of Caiden wearing his fancy tool belt that he built! They were playing a game of dominoes to keep him busy too.
This picture is of his cute pasta hat. They glued pasta noodles to the plate on top but Caiden kept trying to take them off and eat them. We told him they wouldn't be good because they weren't cooked, but he tried anyways.

Caiden and grandma ViAnn made sugar cookies and heart shaped pancakes! What a fun way to spend time with grandma!A big thank you to both moms for spending time with Caiden and helping make dinners and clean my house and so on... I love you both and I am glad you were here to help me!

The following pics were taken just a few days after we came home from the hospital. I love the little wrinkly skin that newborns have. I wanted to take some good pictures of it before the wrinkles disappear. I think Paxton is so sweet and he reminds us so much of his brother! I can't believe they had the same birth weight and height too--6lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long!
