Life With Two Children

Life with two kids has been great! I worried how I would handle it and if it would be too stressful. There are stressful moments, but overall it is very easy! Kayla loves Tessa so much and is always trying to help me. She is quick to give her a binky when she is sad and showers her with kisses. Sometimes I worry for Tessa's safety because Kayla loves her so much. I am just crossing my fingers that one of the times that Kayla gives her an affectionate hug she doesn't crack one of Tessa's ribs or something. Tessa has been such an easy baby to take care of. She has been sleeping somewhere between 5-7 hour stretches at night and she is so happy and pleasant every day. I don't mean for this post to be a brag post, I am just vocalizing my thankfullness and my blessings. There are definately some difficult moments and sometimes some difficult entire days, but overall my life is so much better with this new addition and I am so thankful to have two beautiful little girls.


Kayla loves her cute friend Kallie. They have so much fun together.
We went to the park and Kayla had fun throwing rocks into the pond. Brandon and I would find the rocks and then she would throw them in.

Brandon with his two little girls. He photographs very tired looking. He is very tired actually because he stays up until 2 or 3:00 a.m. every day. Poor guy!

17 Again!

I have a new favorite movie! Some friends and I had a girls night out and saw the movie 17 Again. It is so funny and entertaining. Zac Efron did a great job. Somehow the movie demoted our maturity level about 10 levels. We felt like we were 17 again and then next thing we knew we were cruising around in my friend's mini van singing and dancing to music and acting like teenagers. We went to Walmart and discovered that they don't like it when you climb into the shopping carts. Jessica found that out the hard way :) It was such a fun evening and the funniest part about it was that no one observing us would have guessed that we all were mothers.
