Charlotte had her wellness exam and newborn photo shoot early this week. She weighed in at 7 lbs and 12 oz - which it great for her growth and wellbeing. But so sad because she will only be able to wear her newborn clothes for a couple more days, if that! And that means she is already growing up... I clearly remember her delivery (surgery was much easier the second time around for those who were wondering), only 15 days ago, and then mistakenly I blinked. We will blink once more and she will be running around and talking, just like big-brother Cade whom is already speaking with pronouns in his common two and three word phrases! "I patient!" is his new thing :)
We are LOVING our family of four and our experience, thus far, is that two are easier than one?! Of course, everything takes twice as long at this point but we knew this experience would not come without learning something new!
Cade is still doing very well with Charlotte. He has been very affectionate with HIS baby, mostly pressing his cheek to hers saying, "kiss Cha-Cha" and patting her hands. Today he asked to put "Cha-Cha in swing." He monitored her while she slept in the swing and babbled to her about the rattles that were attached. But I know that he was trying to teach her how to use them! Such a good "big bubba" to his little "sisa!"
We were able to celebrate Ryan's Mom on Sunday! Joyce's birthday was last week but we were all able to get together for lunch and cake this weekend. Our camera has been on the fritz so we only have couple of pics of the celebration. They have a Power Wheels John Deere truck. Cade loved driving the it around in the backyard before lunch and after cake! Happy Birthday, Mom/G'ma!!!
