A start of a giggle...

So I'll do a week worth of events leading up to the biggest one. Last blog was about Kali getting her shots. Well surprisingly enough, she never ran a fever and did exceptionally well through last weekend. She did not even seem sore! Me on the other hand had a really sore arm for 3 days! I guess flu shots will do that!

Because Tyson has been working really hard, long hours over the past couple of weeks, his company gave them Thursday and Friday off. No daycare for Kali...it was daddy's time! It cracked me up when Tyson told me on Wednesday, "How hard can it be?" I laughed so hard inside and thought, you just wait.

So Thursday I called (a million times from work) to see how Kali was doing. Tyson sounded like all was under control! They even met me for lunch! Kali was fed, had a new diaper on, and in regular clothes, so I figured he was doing great so far! :)

When I got home that night, Kali was very happy, but nothing was done in the house...so I guess he truly might have thought it was easy! So I put my momma hands on and cleaned up the house while he still played with her. Friday, Tyson took Kali to Salida, CO for the day (about 1 1/2 hours from our house). They went and picked up a lot of meat at the butcher place (Tyson's company gave him a gift card to there). Then he took Kali to his work place (Moltz construction is based in Salida). All the ladies loved up on Kali and even the guys had fun with her! In the mean time, the ladies at my work asked me to go out for ladies night (since they knew Tyson was at home with Kali). I instantly said YES! I was so excited to have a ladies night again...it has been WAY too long!

I called Tyson and told him that I would be home later that night. He didn't seem very happy. Not that he didn't want me to have fun, but he felt that we haven't had a lot of time together lately. Needless to say, I still choose to go to ladies night since I knew Tyson and I would have the weekend together. I had a blast catching up with all my friends! I wanted a margarita SO bad, but I am still nursing, so I decided to get a virgin pina colada. When I took a drink, it tasted like metal...no joke! Not sure what was wrong with it, but I ended up with water that night! I got home and saw that Kali was in different clothes then she started with that day (whoops, blew out another diaper on daddy!). I also noted again that nothing was done in the house! haha!

He sure is good with her, but I do not think he wanted to put her down for a minute to do any chores...he really appreciates his time with her!

That night as I was putting Kali to sleep, I was changing her diaper and she was smiling HUGE at me. I started laughing because it was so perfect. And for the first time, she made a giggle!! It was only one giggle, but it was the start of her learning to laugh! She makes "coos" all the time, but this was so different, it just melted my heart! I woke Tyson up to tell him about it!

Needless to say, ever since that "giggle", she has been doing it more and more! It is always just one giggle, but she is getting the hang of it slowly! AWESOME! Can't wait for her to laugh!

On Saturday we had our family pictures taken. Of course we had our K-State stuff on for most of them! They turned out great! We did not get many pics outdoors because it was SO windy! Kali did great, she didn't cry once and we had her taking pics for 2 hours straight! The photographer had NO personality at all! We actually would have taken more pics, but we couldn't end our session soon enough. The photographer had no props and never suggested anything,so all the pics were our idea.

It has been a great week and this next week we are gearing up for Grandma Debbie and Aunt Cassie to come out on Wednesday night. They are going to watch her on Thursday and Friday and head home sometime on Saturday. We can't wait!!
