The past few days have been pretty hectic at the Porter house! I won't go into details, but Kyhle and I have been taking care of one of my babies from work while her dad is in the hospital. My co-worker, Meaggan, works at the vet clinic, and I watch her two kids, Jayden and MaKenzie, at daycare. Jayden has been getting taken care of by another family, and Kyhle and I have had 10 month old MaKenzie since Sunday.
As if we weren't baby hungry enough, this sweet little girl isn't making it any easier on us! She is such a fun baby to have with us, and we have really enjoyed taking care of her. Kyhle has been amazing with her, even though she has been quite clingy to me. He will be the perfect daddy someday. Both mornings so far, MaKenzie has had a dirty diaper when she woke up. Kyhle got her out of bed, changed her diaper without complaning or making grossed-out noises, and helped changed her clothes. Isn't he great?
We have always loved on our nieces and nephews, and have enjoyed playing with them, but it's different seeing Kyhle with a baby we aren't related to. He really has the biggest heart! On our first night, we didn't have any toys or groceries, so we ran to Target after we picked up MaKenzie, and Kyhle kept wanting to buy her toys and yummy snacks to keep her happy and spoil her. When we were in the toy aisles, MaKenzie's face just lit up and Kyhle said, "Man! It must be impossible to not spoil your own children because I want to buy her everything!" He's too sweet.
I am so grateful for a husband that loves children, and is so kind and gentle with any child he meets. I'll never forget when we were dating, we were sitting on a bench at Hawthorne Park by the lake and he said, "I want 9 kids so I can have my own baseball team!" I looked at him like he was crazy. Luckily, he settled at four. ;) I hope and pray that one day, I will be able to give him half of the baseball team he so deserves.
