McKenna's Valentine's Party!


On the 16th we celebrated McKenna's 4th Birthday with an all girl Valentine's party!

Our little social butterfly would have invited everyone she knows or meets so I made her limit her invite list to only girls and only a few!

The Invite...


McKenna brought these balloons to her friends... they had to pop them to get the invite and candy out of them :)

It was a little on the crazy side throwing a party 2 weeks after a c section but I couldn't let my little McKenna down!  She LIVES for birthday parties!  Haha!  Thanks Angel for taking pics at the party and everyone that came and spoiled our big 4 year old!!!!!!!

Home Sweet Home!


On Sunday we checked out of the hospital and came home!  We were greeted with the cutest welcome home pics from the girls!  They were so excited!  Adyson had a fever so she was pretty much banished to her room.  She was sad because all she wanted to do was snuggle her new baby!







Reagan meeting Papa and Maddie for the first time on skype!



I tried to show Adyson as much love as possible even though she was banished... :)
 



Reagan's first bath!!!
 
  

Tuesday Nana had to go home to go back to work... I HATED that she had to go... she did EVERYTHING for us and kept the girls so happy.  I think she should just move in :) It was a sad afternoon but a super happy evening when my mom came INTO town!  


Chris setting up the tent Grandma Dalby brought!...


Reagan's first walk outside!...







Bath time with the girls!
 




Adyson was finally feeling good enough to hold Reagan!
 



Chris made these AMAZING cupcakes for my 29th birthday!
 


My mom left Sunday on my birthday.  I had to just not think about her leaving and put it out of my mind so I didn't lose it.  It was SOOO amazing having her here and to allow me to recover from the c-section while taking such great care of the girls.  I love her so much and want her to come back!!!!

 
The first 2.5 weeks of Reagan...

  • The girls LOVE LOVE LOVE her!  
  • McKenna for some strange reason calls her Reagan Ali... um... that's not her name :)
  • McKenna also nicknamed her Reagy Baby :)
  • Adyson says about 100 times a day "I love my baby Reagan!"
  • Both of them will do ANYTHING that I ask them to do if it is for Reagan... i.e. get her diapey, binky, or anything else :)
  • Reagan loves to sleep. 
  • She so far is SUCH a good and easy baby!  
  • She sleeps often for 5 hours straight in the night which is very helpful!
  • I usually wake her up throughout the day just to get her to eat!
  • Reagan REALLY responds to mine and Chris's voices!  It is so cute!  One time she was upset and Chris came home from work and as soon as she heard him she turned her head and completely calmed down!
  • She is just PERFECT and we love her more than anything!
 Reagan had to go to the doctor the day after we got home because she had lost too much weight in the hospital.  Her 4 day old stats
  • 20.5 in. 79%
  • 7 lbs 11 oz. 49%
  • head = 34 cm 25%
Her stats at her 2 week appt. on Valentine's Day!
  • 21.5 in. 89%
  • 8 lbs 11 oz 63%
  • head = 35 cm 27%
