Lots to report!



The past four weeks of having Kelsey in our lives have been such a blessing. We just could not be any happier. She has been doing better with sleeping during the night. I think she is starting to get her day and night clock figured out. Let's hope it lasts!
We have been so fortunate to have had many visitors in the past few weeks. My college roommates and best friends, Kristen and Liz, came to meet her last weekend. They even brought her a UW-Eau Claire onesie--how appropriate :) My brother and his family also came down last weekend as well. We all had fun at the fair. Between feeding Kelsey, taking Lauryn and Miranda potty, changing diapers and the heat, it was quite the adventure.
This past Tuesday, my Aunt Cathy and Uncle Jim from Waukesha were here to meet Kelsey. Thanks for the making the long trip! In between these visits, Kelsey has also seen her Ginskey cousins, Uncle Nate, and Grandma and Grandpa Skala.
This weekend is also filled with visitors! My Aunt Evie, Uncle Dennis and cousins, Katrina and Nathan, will be here from Green Bay. We are looking forward to more family time!
Kelsey has started to giggle in her sleep now. It is so adorable. She just randomly laughs while she is sleeping. She also follows things with her eyes now. She continues to get stronger as well. Her most recent weight was 7lbs. 9oz. She has quite the grip and is able to push off with her legs to turn her body. It is amazing how quickly she is learning to do things!
Matt goes back to work on Tuesday, and we both start our masters program this week as well. I am in my second year and Matt will just be starting. Plus, Matt had his first football games last night. His B-squad team, which he is the head coach of, won. Varsity lost in a close one. Matt coaches the running backs for varsity. It should be an exciting season for Owatonna football! It is always busy in the Skala household--and we love it! Happy Labor Day :)
