Sleepy Girl

I wish I could still sleep like this...

Hide and Seek

Where's Mason?

Here I am!
I went in our room to put away laundry and I heard little chuckles coming from the pillows. While I went to get the clothes out of the dryer Mason went to our room, crawled up our bed, and hid behind the pillows. Shortly after the laughing he asked, "Where's Mason?" I just love his personality. Quite the jokester!

Pumpkin Patch

The pumpkin he liked.


We had to pull him off this to go home.

Must get his country side from his Papa.

My family after a day at the pumpkin patch...can we say "tired"?

Good Friends

Our good friends Jeff and Kristi brought dinner to us last night. They have a little girl that is just too precious. She and Mason had a great time chasing each other around the house. Below is the two of them sitting in the same chair eating brownies. As you can see, Mason is VERY happy!

Jeff and Kristi, thank you so much for the yummy dinner!

Addison's First Few Days.

My Beautiful Baby Girl

Life is GOOD! Steven and I love our family of four. It has been a very smooth transition so far. Much smoother than bringing Mason home. I think we are a lot more prepared this go 'round. Addie however, does not like her crib too much. She will sleep in it, but not very long. We are definitely working on that! Below are a few more pics of our new addition, and her loving big bro.Proud Daddy

I love her black hair! She looks funny with me, but fits perfectly with her daddy!

Mason LOVES his sister. He gives her at least 50 kisses a day!

Mason's was all about his sister at the hospital...look at those cheesy grins!

Lincoln or Addie?

As you can see Lindsay is still preggo, so it must be ours. I thought it was funny that she 'fits' a little better in pictures with her Aunt Lindz and Uncle Ne. A little odd to see the blondies (Mason and I) with Addison, but she sure does fit with Daddy!

Addison was born October 15th at 9:09am. I was supposed to be induced at 8:00am, but she decided she wanted to pick her own birthday! Contractions started around 3:30 am, and by the time we got to the hospital I was HURTING! They sure do come on strong with the 2nd child. I did however get the epidural in enough time to rest for about an hour before she was born. She was easy on the delivery part...three easy pushes and she was out! She weighed 6lbs 12oz and was 20 inches long.
We are all doing just fine...Steven and I a little sleep deprived from our first night home, but Mason had no problems sleeping through the crying! He loves his little sister very much and is so sweet with her. I'll post more pics later.

Slings

Does anyone have a sling that they love and is easy to get a newborn in and out of? We already have a Baby Bjorn. I love it once the baby is in there, but it's the getting them in there part that takes forever! Just curious to know what other moms love...
