Spring?

Hopefully this weather will break soon, I think the 50's are in store for next week. I'm anxious to get out for walks with the girls and shed some more of these extra pounds. We had a great time in TC last weekend for Easter with my family. Kylynn got to go on an Easter Egg Hunt in my parents' house and color Easter Eggs. She really enjoyed it. I was so bummed I forgot Addisyn's sweater at home so I couldn't dress them both in their Easter dresses. We'll have to try it this week. I'll post pictures once I get the two of them in their dresses together, if Kylynn will let me take a picture of the two of them. She hasn't been very good about letting me take pictures or smiling for them. Here are a few from our trip to TC.

Help, help, help...

These are the infamous words of Kylynn right now. She has been such a big helper around the house. Today I was cleaning the outside of our trash can, we have one of those stainless steel step to open ones, and she wanted to help, then she wanted to help me change Addisyn's diaper. She has to go get the Elmo diaper, she loves picking out the character on the front. After that she was so good at cleaning up her toys. It has been such an amazing transition with Addisyn and Kylynn. I really am blessed to have such a well behaved and even tempered little girl. Kylynn has been so much fun lately as well. What a character she is. Her dad says she is nothing like her mother, not! We've been having fun though!

The days of two little girls...

Our little peanut...
One last sled ride with Daddy. Kylynn really enjoyed her sled rides and loved going up the front snow bank that Jason made by plowing the driveway.
"Hold her." These are some popular words around our house right now. Kylynn loves her baby sister and loves to hold her. This time she actually held her for quite awhile and I was able to get some cute pictures.
Tummy time. We finally are doing some tummy time now that Addisyn is off the bili blanket. Kylynn thought this was pretty fun. Addisyn has quite a neck on her. She actually had her first roll over today, Sunday. Jason said we can count it because she put her arms down and pushed herself over, it wasn't gravity helping her out. One strong little girl she is.
We have had a lot of fun with the two. I can't wait to watch Addisyn continue to grow and Kylynn be able to interact with her more.

No more bili!!!!

Yeah, today Addisyn was able to come off the bili. Her levels were at a 12 yesterday and the doctor wanted her to stay on it through the night and then today we shipped the thing back:-) It is so much nicer to see her in a cute little outfit and not glowing. I'll attach some new pictures later this weekend. I just wanted to update the great news!

Adjusting to two little girls...

Things are going pretty well. Kylynn is adjusting and enjoying her little sister. She loves to hold her, she walks up and puts her arms out and that means it's time for her to hold Addisyn. I didn't post a picture of Kylynn's haircut from a few weeks ago and it is the cutest picture so I had to post it.

Addisyn is jaundice so she has been our little glo worm on the bili blanket since Friday night. We were back to the hospital today to check her levels and they went up so she is still on it. She is eating better tonight so that is good. We go back tomorrow morning to check the levels once again and then her appointment is tomorrow afternoon so hopefully she is gaining weight and less jaundice tomorrow. Pray for her to heal and be able to come off the bili blanket. I did capture her first smile on camera tonight though. How exciting, just gas I'm sure.


It has been so nice having Jason home and I am looking forward to our last two days together before he goes back to work. Kylynn is loving having him around. They had a daddy day yesterday and bought our double stroller which she loves, check out the picture, a camera, and some food from Costco. Just pray for me as Jason goes back to work and I learn to adjust to the two girls at home with the two dogs. I think that things will take some adjusting to and I just have to be patient but pray for patience with Kylynn and pray for her to adjust to having to share mommy and daddy.
