Life as a family of 4

Well alot has gone on since the last time that I posted! We are living now as a family of 4 and it is just perfect. We can not imagine our lives without little A, she just fits right in.

She has been a great baby ~ pretty much the same as M when she was a newborn. She likes being held and that is pretty much the only way that she will sleep, she LOVES to eat (really loves) and she is content just laying around and taking everything in. She is getting up in the night about every 2-3 hours to eat and than on good nights she goes right back to sleep!

M is taking on the "Big Sister" role like champ! She loves her baby. She wants to know where she is at all time and wants to help mommy and daddy with helping A. She enjoys shaking the bottles, throwing away the dirty diapers and telling baby to "SHHHHHHH" when she is upset. Her favorite thing right now is when A is in her carrier, M likes to go over and say, "rocka baby" and rock the carrier. Every night before bed time M will tell everyone goodnight and she loves them, but she has to come over and give A a kiss!!! Just melts my heart everytime! She is such a great little girl and just growing up so fast :-(

We are enjoying the great fall weather ~ going to the park, pumpkin picking and yesterday we all went to the Columbus Zoo for Boo at the Zoo. M had a GREAT time and A slept the whole time.

We have been really busy, but are taking it all in and just can not believe how blessed we are to have 2 beautiful and healthy little girls. We just hope that all the couples out there still waiting for their little bundles of joy thru adoption ~ that it happens soon for them! Everyone needs to experience the love of a child and hear the laughs of a child in your own home!
