Family of Four

Just getting ready to walk down to the O.R. for surgery. I'm hiding my pee bag on the other side of my belly. I was really embarrassed to be walking around with my pee bag, but obviously got over that since I am blogging about it right now!

Daddy's Girls


It's been one week and four days since Stella was born and we are all still adjusting. Sami is a great big sister, it just melts my heart how sweet she can be and how proud she is. She still has her moments where she retaliates the attention that her baby sister gets, but I'm pretty sure that's normal. Stella is a great baby, but also has her moments. Moments like the past two nights when she decided she needed to be up and ornery from about 2:30 a.m. until 5 a.m. Luckily my amazing husband does everything he can so that Stella and I can sleep in and take naps when needed.

A Few Of My Favorite Things About My Girls:

Sami: 1) She comes into my room every morning to give me and Stella a good morning kiss, and does the same before she leaves for daycare. 2) She calls her muscles "muffles". 3) She sings to her baby sister.

Stella: 1) You can tell when she is really passed out because she sleeps with her arms above her head in a 'stick 'em up' position. 2) She loves to snuggle in on my chest. 3) She has the most adorable little sneezes.

I could go on and on about both of them, but I will spare you...for now. Just one last thing: I LOVE saying "my girls." I'll try to post some more pictures and stuff tomorrow, but now I have to go snuggle with one of my girls!!!
