and then there were two...

Hello!  Man, have things changed since I blogged last!  We added a little peanut to the mix on September 18, 2012!
 
Kinley Ann Stevenson

 
 
 
I will admit that I was a little nervous to add another child into the mix...so excited but a little nervous.  I swear as soon as they put Kinley in my arms it was like she had always been part of the fam!  She just fit right in!
Luke was a little unsure at the hospital which was hard, but I kinda expected it with so much going on there.  Once we got home it was just a matter of minutes before he wanted to be with her, read to her, hold her, etc...

 
Talk about emotional!!!! Seeing my "two" kids interact was so awesome...words can't even describe...i'm even feeling a little choked up now just thinking back ;)
 
 
Well time has flown since then...Kinley is now 5 months old!  What??? I can't believe it myself! 
here is a little recap...



 
 
Like I said before...its like she was always a part of us...just can't imagine our life without her!  Being a mom is honestly the best gift god could of given me!
 
Kinley is such a happy baby!  As long as you don't take too long to give her a bottle she is a happy camper ;)  She does suffer from acid reflux...which was new to me...so she was put on baby prilosec for the first few months to help with the pain.  She is now off the meds and doing great, but still a spit-up queen :)  She is really starting to get such a personality!  She loves the bath, loves to smile, and LOVES her BIG BROTHER Lukey!
 
Luke has been amazing with Kinley!  He really is an awesome big bro!  He is always giving kisses, talking to her, and giving her toys!  I am so glad that he loves to help me out so much!  He is always willing to grab a diaper or put the finished bottle in the sink...he just seems so proud when he helps out...its adorable!
 
 
Our house is definitely busy and I wouldn't want it any other way!  We have recently started potty training Luke.  It will be great if I can just have one child in diapers :)  We tried it a few months ago and he really wasn't into it so we didn't push.  This time around he has done great!  He gets skittles when he goes on the "big boy potty" and of course that helps :)  He seems to do great at our house...still working at the babysitters but it will come!
 
 
In other news...Luke had his first dentist appt!  He seriously did great!  Got them all shined up :)  I was so proud of him!
 
As for now...both kiddos have pretty nasty colds...I am so ready for the spring!
 
Bye for now!
