Well it has been quite a while since my last blog. It has been crazy around here, and that is putting it mildly. Taylor Rae made her entrance on September 15th. She weighed 6lb 8oz and was 18 in long. Totally opposite of her sister who was 7lb 5oz and 21 1/2 in long. I can already tell that they are going to be totally different. So heres an update on the past 3 weeks. Lacie is starting to adjust pretty well to having a baby sister. She is actually quite helpful sometimes, almost too helpful lol! Everytime I change Taylor she wants to throw the diaper away(which is fine with me cause its one less thing to have to do). We have to watch her pretty closely though cause she doesnt understand that she cant hug too hard or squeeze too hard on her. She is constantly wanting to give her hugs and kisses. It is really sweet though to see them together. I am so grateful to have two beautiful and healthy daughters.
On the down side to all of this, I got the flu last week and it was HORRIBLE! I woke up sick Tuesday morning. DJ had to come home from work and take me to the doctor. His mom and my mom both came over. His mom took Lacie home with her so we only had to take one child with us to the doctor which was very helpful. Needless to say, I needed backup for the next two days because DJ had to go back to work. My mom came over Wednesday and his mom came over Thursday. I am so grateful to both of them because there was no way I could have took care of two kids feeling the way I did. Thank goodness it only lasted a few days because poor DJ was about to become a nervous wreck. He got thrown into full "mommy" mode with the girls in the evenings because I was so weak. But he did a great job and I am proud of him. I have a wonderful husband.
Anyways, so that is an update for now. Here are some pictures from the hospital and of Taylor.
