Weekend fun

We spent the weekend on the west coast and had a great time...minus when I got mastitis (starting to feel better). Saturday we had a nice visit with Grandpa and Grandma Barber. Audrey fell asleep in their arms and Addison enjoyed her new Disney princess dolls! On Sunday we went to Grammy and Poppy's house to visit:

Movie Night!

Andrew and I started movie night with Addison about a month ago. Every Saturday night we will all watch a movie together! Addison loves it, but Andrew loves it more. He wants to get her ready for Magic Kingdom! We want to take Addison to Disney for her third birthday. So far she has seen Cinderella, Dumbo, The Tiger Movie, Winnie the Pooh, and Finding Nemo. We are having a hard time finding all the movies in Blu-Ray/Digital copies because of the darn "vault". We looked up all the rides we think she could do at Magic Kingdom so we can figure out what movies to see. We still need to watch: Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, The Little Mermaid (which we just pre-ordered!), Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin.

2 months old!

Audrey is 2 months old today!!! She likes to smile, to roll up on her side, to suck on her hand, to take baths, and she loves to be outside.

 

a little smile and dimples

 

I had to beg Addison to do this for me, she is not always in the mood to be close to her sister! Notice her band aids. I let her play with an empty spice jar in her water table and she dropped it and it broke. Parenting failure.

 

 

My favorite time of the day: bath time. Both girls really enjoy it.

This was taken last month, but I forgot to post it. If you look closely you can see that Addison is also carrying her baby...in her shirt. 

 

Thursday is Audrey's 2 month well visit...she will get a few shots too.

 

A hard week

Last week was a little rough (or as my Dad would say, a little rough around the edges). Monday and Tuesday I felt very achy, weak, and feverish. I could hardly walk. Tuesday I went to the doctor and he found that I was anemic which was most likely why I was feeling so badly. My Mom came to my rescue and helped me with the girls and housework the rest of the week. Thank you Mom! She also filled me up with spinach and meat at every meal! I've been taking an iron supplement too and will continue to do so for two months. So far I do feel better. I have moments when I still feel a little weak or nauseated. Andrew had a rough week too...working late every night and working all weekend. Audrey went through a growth spurt...eating every two hours and taking very short naps. Addison went through some emotional two year old moments as well...we are starting a new reward system tomorrow (filling up a jar with marbles for every good/nice thing she does).

 

Glad to start a new week!

 

7 weeks old

 

Fourth of July Weekend

We had a nice long weekend! Andrew had to do a little work, but was free for the most part. We went to a coworkers house on the fourth for a BBQ then we watched the fireworks from our balcony. We let Addison stay up to watch them for the first time!

 

 

Aunt Tiffany made Audrey some Audrey onesies!

 

she is starting to like being rocked now

Addison is really into her Legos these days...I love that she plays with them in her dollhouse.

 We went to the beach after dinner tonight. Audrey's first beach experience.

Addison loves the sand so much!

June

June was a month filled with family!

 

This weekend we got a visit from Grammy and Poppy, Scotty and Amanda, and Bradly and Madilynn! We were also able to eat a quick lunch with the Ritter's on our way to visit Andy and Alex!

 

Grammy took everyone swimming (of course!).

Last week we went to visit Uncle Tommy and Aunt Heidi!

 

Addison loved their animals!

 

she also got this boo boo on her face

 

Now we are all exhausted and fussy! : )

 

Thank you Aunt Tiffany!

Thank you Aunt Tiffany for visiting us and for all the help! I wish we had more time and energy to do more, but it was still nice doing day to day life with you! You are a great aunt and sister!
