So it has taken me 4 and a half months to write a blog about my darling little girls. Well, life with 2 kids...it's both amazing and CRAZY...that's for sure. Abigail just had her 4 month doctor appointment and is doing very well. She just had her first tooth come through, which is always fun, and is almost sitting up on her own. She is very interactive these days; loves to giggle and talk to friends and, of course, her big sister Adelyn. Adi is a very good big sister. She is always helping mom find the baby's nuk or playing with her to keep her happy when mom is trying to get something done. Everytime I tell Adi we are going somewhere she always asks if Abby is coming too and helps me get her stuff together; it's very sweet. The bond they are forming already is truly precious!
Mom has been back to work part-time for about a month and a half now, and everyone seems to be adjusting well. We have a teenage babysitter who lives in the naighborhood who takes care of the girls for the few hours when both mom and dad are at work, and she does a really good job. It's also pretty convenient for mom and dad to have someone come to our house. All in all, two working parents really makes everyone cherish the time we have together as a family!
Late August we "celebrated" our 1 year anniversary in our Burnsville home. While we haven't accomplished all the projects we hoped to do by now, we are LOVING our home as it is and espeically our neighborhood. On any day/evening of the week with decent weather, you can almost bet that there will be about 5-10 kids running/riding from yard to yard playing. Adelyn is truly in heaven! She's definitely the youngest of the crew, but she loves it just the same. We are truly blessed to have wonderful kids, parents, and grandparents in our neighborhood.
We are not looking forward to the end of summer, but are loving this GREAT fall beginning. We are hoping this recent weather continues through November to make up for the "lost" summer. Hey, I can keep hoping, can't I?
That's all for now. I have to get some very important sleep when I can. We'll try to post a whole bunch of pictures soon so you can see how quickly our little girls are growing and changing.
With love,
Mommy
