LOL Moment with Mr. B

First the good news...BG is a month old and already weighs 10 lbs and 7 oz!!! She's two lbs and two oz bigger than her first pediatrician appointment after her birth! WOW!!! In just four short weeks she's gained a lot of weight. She's doing great!!!

So Ms. BG gets a little cranky sometimes...the joys of not being able to tell mom and dad what's wrong!! I was trying everything....rocking, bouncing, patting, burping...you name it. Mr. B was sitting close by trying to watch the latest Backyardigans episode, when I plainly stated, " Well Mr. B what are we going to do with your sister?!" He said "Take her back to the hospital." I nearly wet my pants laughing so hard....the love of a brother!

Have a nice day!

Happy Birthday MB!

Today is MB's 33rd Birthday! We had a Batman birthday (yes, Mr. B picked it out). And mr. B helped with the cake!!! It tasted good!!!!!

BG is 3 weeks old and doing well. She's getting a little fussier, but she's also staying up more during the day. We've all been getting good sleep at night so far! I am so glad. I don't know what I'd do without my sleep. I think I am sleeping more now than while I was pregnant!!!

Here's some cuties of the kids. Mr. B sure loves his sister.....


Everyone have a great day! Thanks for checking in!

WHAT A WEEK!!!



Hi everyone! Things are going much better......just for an update to those who didn't know, I went back into the hospital on Saturday night with a 105.5 degree fever!! Some sort of infection wiped me out completely and I spent a day and a half in the hospital. I am back on the mend. Feeling much better and ready to get myself back to normal. I've lost 30 lbs (only gained 25) and getting my energy back.



Thanks to everyone for the prayers and all who helped out around the house with the babies. I couldn't have gotten through it without you!
On to the stuff you really want to know....

BG is great. she's growing and eating great! I missed her Monday appointment because I was coming home from the hospital, but her Dad and Aunt took her. Dr. "Glub" (as Mr. B calls him) said she was great. She already weighs close to her birth weight at 8 lbs 12 oz. Overall she's an awesome baby.

Mr. B is slowly trying to test out what he can and can't do around her. He loves to help with the paci, but is starting to jam it into her mouth instead of being gentle. He's just testing the waters I know....I took BG to school to drop Mr. B off and all the kids in the class had to crowd around her. Of course Mr. B elbowed his way into the front of the class so that no one would touch his baby. He's very proud of her.

Off to cuddle with a crying baby!!! She's very vocal...especially when her Dad's not around!!! He can cool her down in a second...rascal!! Take care and I will try to be better getting pics and posting here!

A Quiet Moment....

After a pretty rough week...I've had spikes in fever and have pretty much been on my back since Monday....I found a quiet moment while both babies are sleeping. There's no sound in the house except the bird chirping outside my bedroom window...how many more moments like this will I have today??? Not many.

BG is still doing great. She has started sleeping five to six hours at a time at night. What a blessing. She did that several times at first and I thought it was just a fluke...but that is her trend. We feel very blessed because she's a good baby. She's also a grunter and makes these hysterically funny sounds when she moves around and when she eats. I still can't believe how pink and perfect she is.

Her brother, Mr. B, is awesome too. We have a hard time convincing him that he has to go to school in the mornings. He desperately wants to stay home...but he's been pretty agreeable so far.

Gonna try to get some rest before the day starts. Will try to post some new pics soon. Everyone have a great weekend!
