Well things are going good in the Kotter household, just busy as usual. McKinley has continued to grow. Her next doctors appointment isn’t until the end of this month so we decided to weigh her on my postage scale and she was 9 lbs. 1 oz. So she is gaining weight really well, a lot better than Lucas ever did. She isn’t the best sleeper at night but it could be a lot worse. She usually likes to be up late, around 1 or 2 am. She then sleeps really good the rest of the night. The last few nights have been better so hopefully it is a sign of things to come.
We were finally able to get Lucas off of his pacifier. It actually wasn’t that hard once Kryssi and I actually buckled down and stopped being pushovers. He cried for maybe an hour or so the first day, during nap time, and then about an hour that night, and since then hasn’t needed it. So now we need to work on potty training.
Lucas still loves McKinley a lot. He always wants to hold her or lay with her, and he is always giving her kisses. Too much love for one little girl!
We have to be extra careful whenever she is on the floor, as Lucas is constantly running around, jumping, diving to the ground, basically always in motion. He has hit her a few times, on accident, and she hasn’t complained much. I think she is already used to being the little sister.
