Long time, no blog














So I realized it had been 6 weeks+ since I had posted anything. I've been feeling guilty about not taking the time to put new pictures up to share with our friends and family! So here I am!

What's new in the last 6 weeks... I started back to work August 31st. It was good to get back to work, and good for our family to be back in a regular routine. I am still working MWF 12 hr shifts, which are long, but the schedule works for us. Addy and Livy go to a new babysitter on Mondays. They are the only two girls with three other boys that are right around Addison's age. The girls seem to do very well there, and its gotten easier for me to drop them off on Monday mornings, knowing they are in good hands!

The girls are both growing and changing so much. Addison makes us laugh all the time, she is a very funny little girl. She has such a great personality! She is very smart and we feel she speaking very well for a two year old! Addy is a very active little girl. She won't sit still for more than a few minutes. She LOVES to take care of her babies and stuffed animal friends. Trouble is, I keep running out of diapers for Livy because Addison has diapered every baby and animal in the house! (she's very good at putting them on too, they look better than my diapering job on Alivia!) Addy is such a good little mommy, she'll make a great babysitter someday!

Alivia has turned into a very active girl herself, very wiggly. She rolled over for the first time a few weeks ago, which I think was at about 16 weeks old. (I have really lost track of the weeks) Which was the same time that Addison did. Alivia is such a sweet girl. She talks and coos, blows raspberries, smiles and giggles. We feel very blessed to have had two such wonderful babies! Alivia definitely has a different personality than Addison. I can't describe exactly how, but it will be interesting to see how they are as they get older. Alivia tried rice cereal for the first time a couple weeks ago. She does alright with it. It seems most of it ends up all over her face and hands, but she'll get the hang of it.

Last weekend we went and picked out pumpkins. Addy wanted to take ALL the pumpkins home I think. Not sure what she is going to be for Halloween yet. I'll be sure to post pictures post-Halloween though.

I guess thats it for now. I'm very tired and need to head off to bed.
