It's always a little bit of a struggle at first, to add another baby into the mix. Trying to figure out where they fit and how to juggle everything; all of your responsibilities. There was a cheer leading camp, done for little girls; by the university here. The girls get to go learn cheers, dance routines, and gymnastics, from the cheer squad and dance teams. It's always a lot of fun for them. So we didn't want our girls {Little Miss R and Little Miss K} to miss it, even though Baby H was really really new. So Mark {being the amazing Daddy that he is} took our girls, and our niece G to the Cheer camp. He stayed the whole time and even took pictures for me to see. Later in the evening, he took them to their performance {at half-time of the University Basketball Game}. And he, with help of Little Man E, took pictures and video of the Girl's performance. We feel very strongly, that we should keep our newborn babies, home for the first month of their lives. But especially with it being cold and flu season, we were planning on keeping her home for the first 2 months of her life {Plus I was still recovering as well}.
We love having the kids dress-up {and us a lot too} and reading and performing the Nativity Scene together, during Christmas time. I love this picture of my children, all dressed up like the Nativity. Love. Mark playing in the snow with the kiddos. Me opening one of my Christmas presents {we didn't get to do that {Mark and I} on Christmas day. The kids modeling their fruit loop necklaces; that they made. My friend Nette, taking me out to lunch. Love her.
My parents came to visit with my little brother Joe. We really enjoyed having them come to visit; especially since we don't get to see them all the time. Joseph got to hold her, before he left on his mission. So proud of him. Also, Mark's mom {Grandma} holding Baby H.
My kiddos love spending time with Grandma, Grandpa {my parents} and Uncle Joe.
