Just another day in paradise
I love this baby!! She is 2 months old today!! I feel like I have this little doll that I dress up and carry around!! I didn't think there would be that much difference between a boy and girl newborn, but they couldn't be more different!! She makes such girly sounds and movements and is super mellow. David was a very active baby and made grunts!! We have been lucky because both of them love to sleep....and we love our sleep around here!! Our friend Natalie introduced us to the miracle blanket and it seriously is a miracle. It swaddles the baby so tightly they can't get out!! I took a picture because they look so funny in it!! Mackenzie is doing great, she is such a happy baby. Both kids go to bed at 8, I feed Mackenzie one more time at 10pm and she'll go until 4 or 5am, then back to sleep until 8 when her and David both get up.
And David...what antics has he been up to??! Well, lets see...
He has started to hide/throw away his food in the trash....seriously kids just learn these things!!! I guess tim and i get so engrossed in conversation during dinner, we hadn't noticed it. If he has a clean plate, he gets dessert! So, he started making his plate clean by sneaking it to the trash. I found it one day and now we have to keep our eye on him, what a smart little guy!
He also doesn't understand why Holly (our dog) doesn't eat our food. He will go into the pantry and get her food. Unfortunately, he found frosted mini wheats and fed her a bowl of them. This makes a dog quite "regular". Ahhh, i get so tired of dealing with everyones poop around here.
Oh, and the pockets....David loves his pants pockets and has become a little bit of a klepto... I have to do pocket checks regularly. The other night before bed I found 7 small reeses cups.
Another day, another diaper......thats my life right now :) Don't let me kid you, I love all of it.

we love the miracle blanket around here too!!
Unfortunately, Maddie's started hiding things as well. We're finding deflated balloons and unused diapers in the toilet now!
Yeah for miracle blanket :) Glad to see someone loves it as much as me and my friend Holly. David sounds hilarious! Him and Caleb could get in some serious trouble together!
and I love how you love all of it.
you were made for motherhood and I just love reading about all of your family's escapades!
She has beautiful skin! I can't decide if she looks more like you or Tim. What have you been hearing? David...what a BOY! He sounds like a lovable handful. You're my hero. :)
Haha! Jenn, I LOVE reading your blog! You are sooo funny! David sounds hilarious! :) Hope you are having a great weekend! :)
