Superman and Princess

Life is a little different with two kids. I am still trying to adjust in doing multiple things at once and fitting everything in. I really love to blog about my family but blogging has been put on hold until I get things figured out. I know most of you are saying two is nothing just wait until three or four.
Taylor has been a fairly easy baby. She reminds me of Gavin in many ways. She seems to just go a long with the flow. She definitely likes to eat. She is already weighing over 11 pounds, probably close to 12 now. She weighed 11 pounds at 9 weeks, which put her in the 60th percentile in weight. Tomorrow she will be 3 months old. Her little rolls on her legs are so cute. She is smiling a lot and starting to giggle. She still has a ton of hair. I swear her hair has grown longer. Gavin's hair got thinner has he grew, I am sure she will do the same. Sleeping is doing awesome! She started sleeping basically through the night at about 2 months old. She will go to bed at 9:30 and wake up between 4 and 6:00. There has been a couple of nights she has slept until 7 AM. The poor little girl spits up a lot though, Gavin did the same thing. He didn't really stop spitting up until he was 9 months old. As long as her diaper is changed, burped, and feed she is a happy baby. Gavin still loves his little sister. I have said it before and I will say it again he is such a good brother!


Gavin is in love with his SUPERMAN costume. He is completely outgrown it and it has several holes but it's totally worth seeing him do his superman moves around the house. He loved me taking pictures of him in it. I am surprised he doesn't want to wear it to bed but he has SUPERMAN pajamas that makes up for not wearing his costume. Little boys are the greatest! I am in love with both our little super hero and now our little princess.

Glad to hear that all is going well. That little Taylor is such a doll, I love all of the hair. And I love the superman pics, they are priceless!

Oh my goodness, you have got some of the cutest kids out there! Seeing pictures of Taylor makes me so, so baby hungry. I love the little screw on hands and feet. I just want to kiss them!!!

If it makes you feel any better, I thought it was much easier to go from 2 to 3 kids than 1 to 2. The adjustment seemed much smoother.

Keep your fingers crossed Taylor keeps her hair. Katie's hair stayed thick. She was able to have her first pony tail at 6 weeks old. And my four months she had two pony tails. Taylor's hair looks thick enough for a short pony.

Keep the pictures coming! I love, love, love them!

Beautiful kids!!! I think it actually gets easier when they are older. They can play together and entertain each other rather than you doing all the entertaining. Good luck adjusting. It does come!

Wow you are right she has gotten so much bigger!

Oh my gosh she is so cute!! She reminds me of you so you know she is just going to get prettier and prettier. I understand the two kid thing and one of mine is in school and I still feel like I can't get anything accomplished. That would be why I can't seem to ever make it to the post office to send you your gift and now reading your post makes me think I might have to make her a bigger size. I will get it to you if it's the last thing I do!! Love the pics
