London is 2 weeks old!

I'm not sure where time is going. I can't believe she's been here with us for two weeks already! These pictures are actually from the day before she was officially two weeks, but close enough! :)

She is so alert lately and is staying awake for much longer periods of time now!

Memom and Umpa are in Town!

Daniel's Mom and Dad were able to come visit us for a few days this week. We were all very excited to see them, but I think Dylan was most excited. Umpa and Memom were so sweet to bring Dylan several new toys and London the cutest play mat. London loves her mat so much, she played until she fell asleep on it today. Umpa helped Daniel put together Dylan big boy bed (THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!), so Dylan isn't sleeping on the floor anymore! A few more decorations put up... and his "big boy room" will be done! I'll post pictures later. While both kiddos were spoiled during the visit, Memom REALLY has London loving being held ALL THE TIME! :) lol! Memom did point out that London might have already been on her way to this point... hmmm. :D

We love you guys and can't wait for Christmas so we can see you again!! Dylan will be happy that he can stay at your house this time!



(Yep, Thats Umpa under the bed!)

Dee Dee and Reagan in Dallas!!

My big sister and niece came to visit us this past weekend. As always, we enjoyed their visit so much! Dylan loves them to pieces. He refused to stay at my house while they were here and stayed with them at their hotel instead! He had a great time. London also loved seeing them :) and really loves her new swing, high chair, and sleepers! (Thank you so much!)


Dylan was taking a much needed nap when we snapped these.

After 9 months of waiting, we finally have our beautiful little girl at home with us. I have to say, I was a little nervous about changing our family dynamic, but London really completes our family. Daniel said "Its like our family is a kitchen table and she's our fourth leg." How sweet is that!? It is true though. A table could be built with three legs, but is much sturdier with four, and that's how its feels with her here.

She was born on October 3 at 6:45pm. She was 8lb, 8oz and 20in long. She has a very sweet nature. For those of you who were around Dylan as a new born, I would say she isn't QUITE as laid back as Dylan, seeing as he NEVER cried, but pretty close. She's definitely a night owl, which we are trying to fix. I thought she might be, because night time was when she most active while she was in the womb.

We just took her to her 5 day check up, and our pediatrician just raved about how well she is doing. She did loose a few ounces after she was born, but is almost right back up to her birth weight and she's already grown and inch!! So now she is 8 lb, 7 oz and 21 in. That puts her in the 75th percentile for weight and 90th percentile for height.

We plan on her being our last baby and I know how quickly time goes by from Dylan, so I'm trying to squeeze out every moment of this sweet newborn stage! It also makes me appreciate Dylan and his sweetness just a little bit more! He is an amazing big brother and is handling the transition so well. My heart and home feel full and I feel truly blessed!
