What an adjustment it has been, going from one to two, really not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Caili is an amazing baby as was Mckenna and is already sleeping 6 hours at night. I am blessed that way. She sleeps on and off during the day, but I'd rather get the sleep at night with her. She is almost smiling at us already and can hold her head up when on her stomach like I've never seen a baby do before. She has actually been doing it since birth, but the strength continues. She hates being on her back, so I have to sleep her on her stomach. SSSHHHHH, don't tell all the doctors, or I'll hear the lectures about SIDS. I know, I know, but we all slept on our stomachs as children and we are all okay. I might try her on her side as the Dr. suggested today at her one month check up. Still don't think she's going to like it.
She is weighing in at 8lbs, 8oz already. Not too sure if she's grown length wise though.
Mckenna is as amazing as I could of hoped her to be as a big sister. She loves watching her and I can see the anticipation in her eyes waiting to be able to play with Caili as she gets bigger. She has started only having one nap a day though will sleep 2 hours or more, which gives me a nice break just when I need it. She is also sleeping 11 hours a night which is great too, as I can feed Caili and still go back to sleep for a few hours before Mckenna hops into bed with me.
Ryan is doing well since his episode with the Caterpillar. His allergies are terrible right now due to this terrible Hayfever season we are having and being out on the lake surrounded by trees and forrest is not helping.
Our house is coming along well and we have the chimney all fixed and no more leaking into our bedroom. The excavating should be done after this weekend, enough so that we can get the jacks and concrete under the house. It will all come in time and I am thrilled to watch the house unfold to it's true potential.
I wanted to attach the recent photos my girlfriend Liz took when she was home last week. They are beautiful and these are just a few. She only started a couple of month ago and it a true natural at it with an amazing eye.
Hope everyone is well and enjoyed their summer. Fall is quickly approaching and I am so looking forward to watching the new season change out at the lake.
I will attach the house photo's next time....I promise!
