Our Little Peanut

I took Lauren to the doctor today for a check-up. She weights a whopping 5 lbs. 15 oz. She'll be back to her birth weight in no time. I have a closet full of clothes that she can't wear yet because she's so small! I hope it's a long summer! I'm grateful for her small size though, because she came so fast my epidural didn't kick in until after the doctor stitched me up, and I felt everything. Things are going well now though. McKay loves his sister, and Danny and I are still trying to get our bearings. Thank goodness my parents are here for the week! Sometime soon I'd like to write the whole birth story, but I just too tired right now!! Enjoy the pictures for now!

McKay looks so big holding Lauren it made me cry... maybe it's the hormones but I can't believe he's a big brother now, what a sweetheart. The room looks great good thing you finished just in time!

What a sweet baby! Her clothes will fit before you know it, and then you will be sad she is growing! She is beautiful, congrats again

She's so cute! Wow, I'm so scared of not having time for the epidural like that. I love their room, you'll have to let me know how it goes having them share. Thanks for the post, go get some rest!!

Finally, Thank you! :) She is SOOOO cute- I think she looks like you. It'll be interesting to see when she plumps out a little. Aidan saw that she wasn't happy in one of the pictures and knowingly told me that she needs her pacifier. Duh. :) Hope you got some sleep last night.

She is a cutie! Aubrie was born 6lbs. 10oz, and went down to 5lbs 15oz too. Walmart has premiee clothes, and so we went that route. They usually don't wear premiee too long and so that is a cheaper route. Aubrie is 2 months and is just starting to wear her 0-3 good.

Sorry if this is embarrassing to post on your blog, but check out your clevage in the second to last picture! Way to go! Ha. Ha. Gotta love me. :) Miss you

Congrats you guys. It is quite the change having 2 now isn't it? I can't believe how small Lauren is...our Myah is a chunky monkey! She is 3 weeks old and weighs 10 lbs already! Of course she had like 2 lbs on Lauren to begin with. Way to go natural (not that you had much of a choice). Hope you're all feeling great!
