One Month old!

They say time flies...but you don't realize it until your second child! Today is Madelyn's one month birthday! This last month really flew by! I'm going to try and be more diligent about taking pictures. I've been slacking lately! Here's a few of the "birthday" girl and one of Payton for good measure!

Snow day!

We woke up this morning to about 4 inches of snow! Payton was excited to see the white stuff, so after breakfast we headed out to build a snowman.


Madelyn didn't last long, so I missed most of the action. Payton decided to follow us in a few minutes later, leaving Erik to do all the work. But the end result was very cool :)

Hold baby!

"Hold baby?!" That's all we hear all day long! Payton wants to constantly hold Madelyn. Then as soon as he holds her, he's done.

Alphabet!!!

One Week Old!

I can't believe it's been a week since Madelyn was born. I've been trying to enjoy every minute because I know how fast they grow up! She's still proving to be a mellow baby. She sleeps for 2-3 hours at a time, hardly ever fusses and is very tolerant of her brother loving on her!

Meeting Cousin Mason.

Payton was nice enough to share his baby with sister. They're practically the same size!

Being a baby is exhausting!

Payton enjoying the Moses basket. (Kind of ironic b/c he hated it, along with everything else, when he was a baby)

Meeting Pat and Emma.

Home sweet home!

It's SO nice to be home! It's hard to rest in a hospital when the nurses are in every hour or so to take vitals, give meds, etc. After 3 pretty much sleepless nights it was nice to be able to rest uninterrupted (except by Madelyn). She's such a different baby than Payton was. He was up and nursing every 45 minutes for the first 6 months. Madelyn nurses about every hour during the day, then every 3 hours during the night!! I hope she keeps this up!!

Enjoying morning snuggles!

My little thumb sucker!
