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!

I love the commentary along with the pics - it really does take us through your week and we love it! It is good for Dad to see these too.

Oh my goodness! Your girls are so cute!! I love that Reagan has enough hair for a ponytail. I'm so jealous of the green, green grass in all your photos!

I have to agree with you... staying home is by far the best job! Crazy as it is some days, I wouldn't trade it for the world.

The pics of Reagan smiling nice and big are adorable... both girls are getting so big. Can't wait to see you guys at the pool again soon! :)

I can't imagine doing all of those projects AND taking care of two girls...you are my current inspiration!

I agree-you are doing a great job of multi-tasking. I have always been impressed by all you manage. We had a great time on our playdate, let's do it again!

Wow, busy lady! It sounds like you had a fun couple of weeks! I loved seeing all the pics of what you've been up to. Oh, and staying at home is great, most of the time!
