Thank You Grammy!

I am not sure we would have survived the first 2 weeks of Baby Dee's life without Grammy.

Not sure that I can put into words how much we appreciate it!!

She made dinners, did laundry, woke up every morning with Ballerina and played all day!

She attended Ballerina's Valentines Day party when I could not!

 Grammy was around to witness that we are not just telling people that our little girl is crazy, 

 she really is!

Ballerina trying on ALL her new clothes at once. 

 I truly believe that without Grammy being in town, Ballerina would have had a much harder time adjusting to her new sibling. However, she was still the center of attention for 2 whole weeks!! 

Thank you Grammy!!

We love you!!

The Little Prince!!

On Wednesday February 12, 2014

We welcomed our son, Baby Dee, into the world!!

Weight: 8lbs. 20z.

Length: 19.5 inches

 Look at those chubby cheeks!!

 It was truly love at first sight!! What is it about little boys tugging on those Mommy heartstrings?

Ballerina arrived at the hospital after her nap at daycare. She came in the room and immediately said "Baaaa-by" Which was then followed by her holding her arms out and saying "I hold it", " I hold it". Music to my ears!!

 Ballerina was immediately smitten with her baby brother! And look at Daddy! He loves his kiddos!!

 Blurry shot of my with my kiddos. Ballerina was not exactly fond of Mommy hooked up to IVs and things. She preferred staying in the chair with Daddy or running around the room while trying to push all the buttons.

We could not be more blessed. 2 happy healthy children!!

Only Chld No More!

Well, the weekend before Baby Dee was set to arrive we pampered Ballerina a little. 

It was her last weekend as an only child, so we thought she could call the shots. Ha!

 

This kid loves the vacuum. Hopefully, she will continue to love this in her teen years! 

So, a little house keeping in the morning! 

Then for lunch we headed out to Ballerina's favorite restaurant in town, Ray's BBQ.  

(Mommy and Daddy like it a lot too!)

 

 After Ray's, Ballerina was treated to a Classic 50s Milkshake. Considering we normally go as sugar free as possible around here... this was a BIG deal!

 When we got home, there was a big sister gift from Cousin Krissi! She sent tattoos! 

Ballerina was a little scared at first but then she was happy to get Tinkerbell all over her arms!

 While Daddy and Grammy made some dinner, Ballerina and I got to play all by ourselves. 

She loves to Facetime with relatives but we cannot call them all day, everyday. When trying to avoid her making phone calls... I turn the camera on and we "photo shoot!"

You know you are getting spoiled when you have full control of the iPad! I am amazed at how well she can work it! Finds her own folder and everything!! It's crazy!!

We had a wonderful weekend spoiling the Ballerina!!
