We are still here!

I have not been very good about updating the blog. We have been busy getting adjusted to having two sweet girls. Reese is doing great. She is 6 weeks old now!! I can't believe it. It definitely went by a lot faster this time. She is such a good baby. She can roll over from her stomach to her back and is smiling a lot now! We just love her and can't believe that she is she finally here with us. Reagan is doing a great job as a big sister. She loves Reese and wants to check on her all the time. It is so sweet to watch them together. Reagan definitely pushes limits with us but I think that is just part of being two!! I will post some updated pictures soon!!!

Final Snow?

It seems like it has snowed so much this winter. As a teacher, I have certainly enjoyed the days off but I am ready for spring. Maybe this was our last snow storm of the winter. We can only hope! Reagan does love to play in the snow and luckily this time Jason was home to take her out in it. It was super cold and she was ready to come in for hot chocolate!

All bundled up! 

YAY for snow!

Time to play!

Hot Chocolate!! 

Crazy Weather

This weather has been so crazy! One day it was almost 70 degrees outside and then the next day, we had several inches of snow. I am definitely ready for spring to come. We took advantage of the one nice day and played outside on Sunday. I took Reese out but she wasn't too happy out there. Reagan had fun driving her Barbie car, which hasn't been driven much because of all the winter weather this year!  

She finally figured out how to steer! YAY!

So cute

Home with Reese

We are getting adjusted to being a family of four. It has been much easier this time around. Oh, we are really tired but at least I know that part doesn't last forever. Reese is pretty good. She sleeps for long stretches and doesn't scream too much. She is such a sweet little baby and I love being the mommy to two beautiful girls. I just can't believe it!

Reagan the Big Sister

Big Sister 

I was so worried about how Reagan would react to her new sister. One week in, she has been pretty good. She is really into helping with Reese. She is so cute and says the cutest things. In my hormonal state,  her comments have brought on a lot of tears for me. Recently, she said " I think baby sister is really gonna like me." She seems so grown up now and I am so proud of her for being such a great big sister to baby Reese. I can't wait to watch them grow up together! Sisters are so great and I am so happy that these two girls have each other! 

Meeting Reese for the first time

Welcome Reese

Reese Virginia Pruden finally arrived on Tuesday February 25th. It was quite a long process, longer than I had imagined. Jason and I went to the hospital on Monday night. I was having contractions but nothing else was happening. The doctor ended up breaking my water on Tuesday around 2pm and Reese arrived very quickly, about an hour later. I honestly can't believe that we have been blessed with these two beautiful girls. A few years ago, I thought I would never even have a child of my own and now we have two! It really is a miracle. We are so blessed to have two beautiful and healthy girls!

Waiting for baby sister

So, we have been waiting for baby sister to arrive any day now! I am feeling miserable and so anxious. We have been trying to stay busy and Reagan definitely helps with that!
