a mom of two

Wow, these past two weeks have been super busy! Being a mom of two is wonderful, but completely exhausting! Last week we had three doctor appointments (one for each of us), plus a not so happy trip to the lab for Reagan to have her blood drawn. On Friday our power was out for the day, so we went to Haslett to relax at Sue and Jack's pool. Skyler and Steph came over for a playdate, we went to the park for a playgroup, went to a birthday party for some of Reagan's friends, put in a garden, started painting the trim on our house, visited Dad at the hospital, and still managed to sleep a little. Here are lots of pictures of our past two weeks. Happy 7 week birthday tomorrow Kennedy!

My big girl, she looks so grown-up with a ponytail!

Reagan's surfer girl swimsuit!

She does manage to eat a little of her popsicle...

Being a big sister is tons of fun!

Our first attempt at painting. Our dainty girl didn't like getting her fingers dirty, so she opted to use a paintbrush!

Reagan asking to share Kennedy's blanket...

Kennedy said that would be okay...
She may be a little big to actually share the blanket, though!

My sleeping beauty!

She is a beauty when she is awake, too! Check out her crazy hair!

Reagan's playdate with Skyler. She really likes Skyler, she even shares her toys with her!

What better way to beat the heat than at Sue and Jack's? Reagan even got in the big pool and loved it! Hopefully we will be there again tomorrow, if the storms miss us!

I told Rick, I may be more exhausted than him at the end of the day, but my job is way better than his! Staying at home is the best!

blessing

On Sunday Rick was able to give Kennedy a beautiful blessing at church. We were fortunate enough to have some family and friends that were able to attend. Dad is still in the hospital, though, so he wasn't able to make it. My mom somehow found the time to still make Kennedy a blessing dress, so both girls have a keepsake from their blessings. It was a wonderful day!

Everyone after the blessing.

Our family of four.

grins and bubbles

Great Grandma came to visit last week and we spent Memorial Day with her. We had a wonderful barbeque at the Crosses, and the kids had a blast with the pools, water, and bubbles. Here are a few highlights...

Kennedy grins in her sleep! If you look close you can see her dimple.

Reagan loved the bubbles!

She couldn't get enough of them!
