Lucky Seven Months

***DISCLAIMER*** 
Well Mr. Kai, I am truly sorry your blog is not, and may not ever, be quite as detailed and lengthy as your sisters. In my defense, I am spending almost every single waking minute trying to keep you two alive and mostly happy, (which of course is an incredibly awesome job but doesn't leave much extra time now to blog). Sorry little dude. Hope you won't hold it against me for your entire life. 
Love, Mom

At seven months, Kai still has no teeth. BUT he is eating rice cereal, sweet potatoes, and other baby foods like he's starving! I'm fairly certain his daily caloric intake is higher than Cora's.  He's also still breastfeeding throughout the day on top of his three or so meals of baby goop so he is chubbing up quite nicely. 

Kai is sitting well and also starting to army crawl He is a fast, and strong little guy! He mostly loves trying to go after cords, electronics and lamps. He also crawls after Tanner and giggles when he catches him, which is totally adorable. 

Kai is still such a sweet, mellow, happy little buddy (although he still never sleeps through the night, but oh well ... ) and I feel like the luckiest momma in the world. 


My little hiking buddy. We hike a lot together and he loves it.


Opps. Diaper blowout mid-run/unprepared mom.

Of Being Five Months

At six months on Saturday, little 15 pound Kai is getting stronger and sweeter everyday! 

He is proving to be a true Campbell- his rolling adventures have already unexpectedly lodged him under a rocking chair; a pursuit after a plastic car landed him in Cora's closet full of hard shoes with a suprise Princess Else dress entaglement, and he discovered (to his delight!) his Daddy's stinky ski gear after scooting and rolling many feet across the living room into a ski bag. 

He is grabbing and holding onto anything he can before trying to eat it, so the war on little toys is full on! 

Kai is communicating through bubble blowing, ear piercing squeals, giggles and grunts. He really doesn't cry too much, which I am so thankful for!

Besides rolling, he is sitting and standing with assistance, and I have a feeling he will be an early walker like Cora. His favorite game is peekaboo, and for some reason he loves it the most when he's holding onto a couch (probably because he is distracted by the game, loses his balance and falls which he thinks is hilarious).


In conjunction with being a breast feeding monster, Kai is also eating solids now a couple times a day.  He loves sweet potatoes and carrots - I'm hoping he doesn't turn orange like his daddy did from eating too many carrots when he was a baby!

Month five of Kai's beautiful life has been incredible. He is just a dream and it keeps getting better. Such a lucky momma!
