finally got internet at our house so I can blog whenever I want to. I am thrilled. I had blogging withdraws then eventually got over it so I have to get back in the hang of things.
Lets see.. where to start. Things are goin great around here! The first 2 weeks were the hardest and I wasn't sure that I was gonna make it through... but I did! Thanks to the help of my mom and mom-in-law. Yall's help was amazing!! And of course Nat... he was Mr. Mom every day when he got home from work. This week has been so much fun for me! Just soakin this life in and enjoying my 2 kids. I know... sounds cheesy, but its the truth. Payton is still as good as ever. She only cries when she has a dirty diaper or wants to eat... and to top that off, she only wakes up one time in the middle of the night... cant beat that in a 3 week old. Her (and mine... but who cares about the momma) :) 2 week check up was good. She weighed 8lb 3 oz which is exactly 1 lb from how much she weighed when we left the hospital. There is no doubt that she is a good eater!!
Madelynn... oh my dear sweet First born child... still not walking or caring about walking... I thought for 2 seconds we were goin somewhere with it but I was wrong... and lemme tell ya, going out without a daddy to help is not easy but I have managed to be able to carry a car seat, a 13 month old who lets you hold ALL of her weight and a diaper bag the size of Texas that weighs 200 pounds... Anyways... she is absolutely 100% in love with her little sister. Every time she cries Madelynn crawls as fast as she possibly can over to her to try and help her or give her her paci its soooo sweet! She gives her kisses every chance she gets.. ever so often she gets a little rough and pokes eyeballs and pulls hair and sticks her finger down her throat, but I think that that is more curiosity than being mean. We have not had any jealousy issues with her. Its been wonderful.
she likes to go for the more serious look...
I had some kind of stomach bug on Sunday so I was stuck on the couch all day feeling like crap. Started feeling better that evening so yesterday, I went with my mom and sisters to Midland for Micaelas volleyball game (with my bottle of pepto in hand.) It was fun. Madelynn was pretty much the star of the show when Micaela and her friends were done playing their game. It was quiet funny. They all wanted to hold her and every one of them kept telling me how cute she was and how I had such a sweet daughter. Anyways... It may have been a little to soon after having the bug to go outta town and eat foods you shouldnt eat when your stomach is upset cuz this morning I woke up feeling that way again.. so i'm not feelin to great today. But its definitely not as bad as it was Sunday.
Here are some pictures of Madelynn with all those girls. It was so funny.
Madelynn took off and they all crawled along with her
And here is just some of life...
This is Madelynns way of giving kisses. She does this any time she can reach Payton. Soooo sweet!

I dont know why this is showing up sideways but I love this picture!!

Anyways.. hope that gives you some update on our life. We did manage to get some pictures done... a one year old session and a newborn session all in one day. :) They are absolutely beautiful and i cant wait to share them with you!
