Two months already??? Yep thats right!! I still can't believe how much our little girls have grown in just two months!! These pictures were taken the week Lyvia was born and I can't believe how different she already looks to me!
Even though I am sad that time is going by so quickly, I can't wait until Lyvia is a little bit older so that she can give back a little bit of the love that Andelyn has so "generously" given her. I always have to be so careful when I leave the room, because if I am lucky this is usually what I find......
...Andelyn snuggling up right next to her baby sister. However, more often than not I find Andelyn on top of Lyvia literally smothering her with kisses. She still gives me that look of confusion when I get so upset with her its almost like she is saying "mommy what's the problem I'm just trying to give my baby sister lots of loves and kisses." It's what every mother wants, right??
In all reality I am so happy with the way Andelyn is with Lyvia! She loves her so much and seems to be so patient with us. She has really never shown any jealousy and I am so grateful for that! They truly are best friends and I hope that lasts! Anytime we go anywhere in the car Andelyn grabs Lyvia's hand, no matter how awkward it is and holds it the whole time in the car. It just melts my heart!
Lyvia turned two months old so we decided to go to the zoo to celebrate. Lyvia didn't really notice much, but Andelyn sure enjoyed herself! It was fun to see her get so excited to see all of the different animals, however, I think the carousel was her favorite part!
These last two months have been absolutely wonderful! I never thought there could be so much more room for so much more love in our house, but there is! Lyvia is healthy and happy. I can't believe how much she smiles at her age, but of course she loves to give her daddy smiles and he can even get her to giggle.
Her blessing was last Sunday. What a blessing she truly is in our family. I am so happy and quite proud of our little family! Thank you so much to all those who came and supported us on this special day!
We have been crazy busy these last two months from Lyvia's birth to moving upstairs to birthdays and brazilian bbq's and a baby blessing and school starting to everything else in between including "kind of" potty training....don't let Andelyn's face of excitement fool you for going potty. She has the whole routine down, but for some reason she just doesn't want to actually go potty in the toilet, but she sure has some good fake out and makes you run to the bathroom with her at the speed of light. ( I think she really does know what she's doing and just gets a kick out of watching us adults) anyway, I'm sure it will come soon.
Now hopefully after my sister's wedding this week we might get a chance to relax for a bit, but as for now I am just trying to take it all in and enjoy the ride!!!!!
