Day Trip To the City

Last weekend we drove into San Fran to spend the afternoon with our friends Curt and Melissa. They were in the area, and the city is normally only about an hour and a half from us. Normally being the operative word here. On this wonderful day it took us 3 hours to get there. Traffic was an absolute nightmare. Thank goodness the kids both slept a large part of the way, and we avoided any melt downs. We did make it home in an hour and a half though that evening. Go figure.

Aiden loved to watch and run at the "teet teets" (birdies). He wasn't quite sure what to make of the moving characters at the Ripley's museum.Me and my babies. 

Summer Fun

  If your at a concert in the park, it's more than appropriate to wear a flower in your "hair".

Flirting and playing "Peek A Boo" with the other ladies. Probably trying to make his girlfriend jealous.

It wasn't working, so he decided to make her pay attention........um, by grabbing her head. I will have to give him some smoother tips. HA HA.

Such a lover.

Best Big Brother

This is not a new picture, but I completely forgot to post it. Aiden loves to hug, kiss, and rub Harper's back. When she cries he runs to find her binkie and gives it to her. Then will say "Shhhhhhh.....bebe." When he hears her crying in her room, he looks at me and says "Uh oh, bebe?"

Sleeping Beauty

Milk ComaBathtime wore her out.Finds Regis and Kelly boring.Had nothing else to do, so she rested.

Harper K

Here's a video clip of the little chubby bubby. She is currently weighing in at exactly 9 pounds. Last night she slept for 11 hours straight. Oh and I think I got my first smile today, not just a gas bubble.

"You gonna eat that?"

Move Over Sponge Bob

Aiden discovering a moving Buzz Light Year doll at Target today.  He was completely mesmerized.

Bath time!

She's getting so pleasantly plump! : )

Update

I just wanted to give an update to friends and family that were so kind to reach out to me after I had posted about my PPD. It has been 2 weeks since I began getting some help, and I am so glad that I did. Everyday is better and a little brighter. I have a little ways to go, but the amount of support that I have received from friends has really been amazing. To those who took the time to call, write emails, and send comments, I cannot thank you enough. You really helped me out when I needed it most, and I was so incredibly touched by your words. To my momma also, who was there to listen when I felt like I was coming unraveled. This experience has completely rocked me to my core, but I will get through this and be better because of it. Thanks again to all.

Concerts in the Park

Every Friday night there is a concert in the park by our house. They are so fun, and a perfect way to relax with friends at the end of the week.

The 4th in Tahoe

Harper at 1 MONTH

When I look at these pictures, I cannot believe how much she has grown already! Her actual body must have almost doubled in size. She continues to be such a sweet girl and absolutely the most perfect addition to our family. Last night was her first night in her own room and she was only up twice. She grunts all night long, so even though she doesn't cry often, the grunting is enough to keep you up all night if she is in the same bedroom. She made her first trip to Tahoe last weekend for the 4th, and slept on the beach the whole day. That's my girl .......
