Finally...

Soo sorry that it has been so long since my last post... been busy, but here are some photos for you all to enjoy in no particular order at all!!!

On my own....

Since Monday, I have been on my own with the girls.

Let me tell you...it is NOT easy! I am adjusting, but even adjusting is hard. Learning to juggle all of the daily doings and making sure that Brookelynn is still getting all of the attention she needs is sooo hard! Not to mention Brooke is really good at CONSTANTLY testing my patience. She absolutely adores her new baby sis and just wants to be the biggest helper ever, but sometimes, most of the time, she is a little too helpful so I feel guilty because I am constantly telling her "no" or "leave her alone please" or "she doesn't need that right now, because she is sleeping". So I am hoping that soon, I can have a good schedule down and have a good equal balance between my girls and all of the things I would like to get done in a day. So I am hanging in there, hoping that all of this falls into place sooner rather than later!! Cross your fingers for me!!!!!

Adyson is two weeks old.

Just a quick update for everyone!!!

Today we had Adyson's two week doctors appointment and it went well. She has gone from 6 lbs 9 oz to 7lbs 1o oz and from 19 1/2 inches to 20 inches. According to the growth chart she is in the 75th percentile for height and the 50th for weight. I was surprised that she had only gained a pound considering what a little porker she is! The sad part of her appointment was when they had to prick her foot for her PKU test....she was sleeping sooo peacefully and then the nurse pricked her foot and she started whaling...man, what a rough way to wake up?!?!?! As if that wasn't enough..the first prick didn't bleed enough so she had to have a second prick. Talk about rough, it was rough on me too. Other than that, all is well!

It's amazing how they sleep like this

Woke up the other morning to Ady sleeping like this! I thought it was too funny!Then later that same day, Brooke went down for a nap, and when I checked on her this is what I found. Apparently she wasn't totally ready for her nap when I put her down, and figured reading a story would help!! Looks like it did the trick.

Water fun on a hot day!

On Saturday it was really hot, near mid 90's, so we took Brooke to a fountain that they have at the Gateway mall for kids to play in. She had never been, but took to it really fast and had a BLAST!!! Definately something we will do again, especially now that it is sooooo bloody HOT nearly every stinkin day!

Lazy Day

Today was a lazy day at home with the girls. We had plans to take Brookelynn to the fountain at the Gateway to play in the water, but that plan was ruined when I woke up this morning having an allergic reaction. I had hives all over my body and my hands and eyes were very swollen. I went to the doctors and found out that my allergic reaction was to the Loratab I was prescribed after delivery. I was miserable most of the day, but am feeling better tonight after a dose of benadryl. We are hoping to make it to the fountain tomorrow, so hopefully I will have some cute pics of that to post tomorrow!!!

Caught Brookelynn trying to be the helpful big sister!!! Too cute!

Adyson's first bath at home

Well, Adyson's umbilical cord came off a couple of days ago so I decided it was time to give her a "real" bath. She is going to be a water baby just like her big sister. She LOVED the water.

Brooke enjoyed having her sister in the bath with her as well, but wasn't so sure at first.So content after her bath!
