Seriously......







Seriously......could life possibly get any better then this?? I have the most amazing husband, two beautiful fun and very cuddly little girls and the best job in the world of being a wife and mother!

Brek's two month check up....

So i took Brek in last friday for her 2 month check up and she weighed in at 9 lbs and 12oz and is only 20 inches long. I think she is getting so big but everyone says she is so little still. She is in the 1 percentile of mostly everything. Her head is in the 5th percentile. So i guess she still is pretty little....i guess.

Two Months Old!

So yes...my baby Breklyn is two months old today! It really truly is sad how fast life passes by us. We are always so busy with so many different things in life....its really hard to take some extra time to just be a family and not worry about the other things.
Seriously it feels like i was just in the hospital having Breklyn. These past two months have gone by so fast...i just cant get over it!
Well Brek just sleeps all day still...and all night. Yes i am not lying...she sleeps from 10p.m. until 4 or 5 a.m. Today it was 6 a.m. Brad just keeps telling me how spoiled i am. But i agree...i got spoiled with a really good baby girl. Brek has started smiling more and making really cute noises. She is so fun and so cute! We are so blessed to have her in our family.
I love you Baby Brek!

Christmas...Brek and Hallie!

So cute!!
Wide awake
So stinking cute...and yes she has panties on!


So here is the low down......Brek has RSV! Hallie is still her little stinker self with and attitude and we had an amazing Christmas!
Yeah i know...RSV...sucky stuff. Atleast it has not settled to much in her lungs so she is home with us and not in the hospital. Ever since she was born she has always been really stuffy, which Dr. C says that most babies are until about 3 months. So i took her to the dr today to get her all checked out and he said that she has a secondary infection in her nose and sinus and so he put he on some antibiotics. He told me to keep a good eye on her and if i think its getting worse to take her back in. OH and guess what...they weighed her and fully clothed she weighed
9lbs 2 oz!! Wow my baby is growing. I just look at her and she still is so little, but some moms give birth to babies this size! AHHH....does not sound fun to me!!! Ouch!
Oh...next with Hallie. She is repeating everything i say to her. So for instance...when we had our really bad week after brek was born..i would get after her and i would say...Hallie dont do that, do you hear me?! So about a week ago...hallie and i were in the shower and i was washing her hair and was dumping a cup of water on her head. Well she turned around and gave me this really dirty look and said... Mom dont do that...do you hear me?! I thought i was going to die. I cant believe she said that to me! So since then...everything i say..she is repeating me! Time to watch my mouth i think!
So our Christmas was so good. We didnt do anything huge...we just spent tons of time with family! There is nothing better then being with family during the holidays. We got very spoiled and it was so fun to watch Hallie be so excited that santa came and brought her toys. But now when she sees anyone with a beard she thinks its santa! I think next year will be fun with Hallie and Brek being one!
I just love my little girls so much...there is not a greater blessing in life then being able to be blessed to have children. I am so grateful to beable to have my own children and have a family of my own. I dont think i would trade the way my life is for anything in this whole world.
I also am so grateful for such a wonderful husband i have. He is seriously so amazing. He is such a hard worker and will do anything for us. He puts up with so much and always has a smile on his face and is always making sure that i am happy and letting me know how much he loves me!

Breklyn's Blessing


Yesterday was Breklyn's Special day. She was surrounded by some very special people and her daddy gave her an amazing blessing. We were very blessed to have so many family and friends join us. We are so very blessed to be the parents of such a special little girl! She is the sweetest little thing in the whole world. I seriously could just snuggle her all day and it wouldnt bother me one bit! We are so blessed to have 2 sweet very healthy little girls to call our own. I dont know where we would be with out them. They are my whole world and i would do anything for them.
After the blessing we all got together and had a luncheon. It was so fun to catch up with some family and friends what we have not seen in a while.
Oh and Breklyn's blessing dress, was actually my dress that i wore when i was blessed. Hallie wore it to be blessed in also. It is such a pretty dress, i looks antique because its kinda going yellow, but it has so much meaning i dont mind. She looked so beautiful in it!
I love you little Brek!
