Family Update

Elizabeth went in for her 2 week appointment and man has she grown. She now weighs 9lbs 8oz and is 22 inches long. She is just 2oz short of gaining 2lbs in 2 weeks. I told her Dr it is because I am producing cream this time around and with Victoria it was more water than cream. She is getting better at her days and nights. She still gets up early in the morning and stays awake for 2 hours. It has not been fun since Victoria gets up at 7am anyway. I am not getting much sleep but what can you do?! Elizabeth is a great baby and changing everyday.

Victoria got a bike and she likes to ride it. She has not been playing much because she wants to be with her sister all the time. I can lay Elizabeth on the floor and Victoria will go and lay by her and kiss her. Victoria will go to her play pen and touch her head. If I ask her to check on her sister she will go and look at her and tell me if she is awake or sleeping. I could not have asked for Victoria to be any better than she is to Elizabeth. I trust her 100% with her sister. I will have Elizabeth on the floor and go into the kitchen and know that Victoria will not hurt her in anyway at all.

It has been hard adjusting to two kids but we are doing it and it is working. It helps that Victoria is not jealous or hurtful to Elizabeth. I am enjoying my two girls and cannot wait until they grow up and we get to do mother and daughter things together. Papa loves his girls like there is noone else in the world. He has a hard road ahead of him with two little girls to look after and protect.
