An Update

I took Little Miss to the doctor on Friday for her two month checkup. She was 12 lbs. 4.5 oz. Once again the doctor was surprised at how she is growing. It is amazing to me how she has gone from the 7th percentile on ultrasound to 90th percentile on her weight. Her length was in the 75th percentile. She is eating constantly and has started cooing real well. She turns her head when she hears my voice, and smiles when she sees me. It is the most wonderful feeling. Here is a picture of my little porker.

On the other hand.... When are children suppose to have their first dental visit?

One month visit

I took Eden to the doctor today for her one month check up. She is growing like a weed. She has grown so much that her doctor said I must have industrial strength milk. Eden was 6lbs. 5oz. when we left the hospital. Imagine my surprise this morning when I put her on the scale and it read 9 lbs. 15 oz.! That is one ounce from 10lbs. Yes she has gained over 3 1/2 pounds. I will try to post new pictures soon.

We took our first family outting as a family of four. We went to the see the "animals" at Pine Mountion Animal Safari. Noah had a blast until the "cows" kept putting their heads in our window. Not to mention he did not have a nap and was extremely tired. When we got home, he and David were out in the yard catching frogs. He loves "woggies."
Eden slept the whole trip except for the times she decided she was hungry. She is also beginning to lift her head. I put her on her stomach for naps because she seems to sleep better that way. When lying on her stomach, she has started lifting and turning her head. She is really beginning to fill out. I can't wait to find out how much she weighs.
When you look at the pictures they are in order from last to first. Sorry for the confusion.

Our ride through the park. It was disgusting, but better than our car getting slobbered on.

Happy Fourth of July

I hope everyone had a great Fourth of July. We were able to relax and be lazy in the morning. Then, we went to David's parents to celebrate his mom's birthday. While there all the kids and most of the adults went swimming in their new pool. Noah had a blast. He wanted to jump off the side into the pool, and then he wanted to get out when he wasn't allowed. After the birthday celebration we went to the high school to watch the fireworks. I was a little nervous about how the kids (it feels weird saying "kids") would react. They did fine. Noah was thrilled and loved it. Eden started to fall asleep. That was until she decided she was hungry. She may be a little thing, but she has a BIG appetite. Last week we went to the dr. to see if she was up to her birth weight. She was up to 6 lbs. and 14 oz. I can already see her features starting to change, and I can tell she is really putting on some weight. This is good because her big brother doesn't yet understand that he doesn't have to lay on top of her to give her love. (Side note: At his 2 year check up Noah was 36 lbs.) Noah is still in love with his sister. Whenever we go somewhere he says, "Where Sister?" In the morning he always rolls over to kiss his sister and says, "old er." When she cries, he tells me to pick her up, and loves for all three of us to sit in the rocking chair and read. So far he has been a great big brother. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

I'm Going Home

We were actually able to take Eden home yesterday. As you can see, she barefully fits in her car seat. Not a problem we had with Noah. We got her home and all Noah wanted to do was play with his little sister. He even threw a ball to her but did not understand why she didn't catch it. The only problem was that Noah's first words to his sister was "Hush" because she was crying. When we asked him what he said to her, he said I said hush. At least he is honest. It is hard to believe that we have two children now. I haven't quite gotten used to looking in the rearview mirror and seeing two heads instead of one but both of my children are the best Father's Day gift I could have gotten.
