Life with two daughters


I never thought having two kids would keep me so busy. I can't believe it has taken me so long to post. I decided I'd better hurry before Cinderella ends and Addilyn gets sick of swinging. We haven't done much since my last post but Addilyn is now two months old and she is a lot of fun! I can't imagine life without her. She has started to smile and loves to show those gums after she gets a big meal. She is also gaining weight, a she is pretty cute pudgy.

Shelby still likes her, luckily. This morning I got out of the shower to find her in Addilyn's crib, turning on her music and trying to play with her. She also likes to give her toys and "share" with her (as long as it's Addilyn's stuff).

Addilyn was also blessed this month. I was told she stayed awake the entire time and looked around like, "what is going on?"

The last thing that happened was I broke down and said okay to getting a dog. His name is Toby and he is a Bichon Frise. He's cute and fluffy. He is still in puppy mode with bitting and Shelby doesn't understand that he is just trying to play with her. She has renamed him Stinky Pete after the Prospector on Toy Story 2.

It's been a fun two months and I am going to try to post more often!
P.S. We still love our house! It's been great having it before Addilyn was born!

Yay, a post. I've been wondering how you guys are doing. Great pictures. I love the one with the bowl on her head. :)

Is that dog the same kind as Jack?

See you at Thanksgiving.

Your girls are just too cute! Love the house!!! Jeff says "I really miss Jordan!." We might be comin up next spring to visit if all things work out for the next few months! Can't wait to see you again!

Kendra, come see us any time! We are always home. Andrea, Toby is a different kind of dog than Jack but they will probably be about the same size.

Ok, so how come you didn't tell me you were getting a dog? How did this happen? You don't even like my dog!

I can NOT believe you have 3 babies in that house! I don't know how you do it. Here's another fun fact about Bichon Frises: Their official dog show hair cut looks rriiiiidiculous. Hahaha!

Thanks for posting another picture of our new niece. Sorry we missed the blessing. Life is so stressful with AJ's work lately. We can never commit to being anywhere in case he can't come home, and then when he's actually home it's hard to do all the things we want to. <3
