Kitty just send me a text so I thought I check in and let you know that I am alive. Viva I saw your post below- thanks for checking!
Things are great in my house. Summer is a fantastic baby. She is very sweet and sleeps a ton. While I am on leave I still have a little work to keep up with and I try to exercise at least 1 hour while she sleeps. I have no idea how we have so much laundry ) My goodness. I am trying to be a good housewife by having meals everynight, get the shopping and errands done during the week and keep a neat home- whew! I don't know where hours go. So I don't nest from home or I will never get anything done. I miss everyone though.
The weight is harder to get off the 2nd time. I have about 8 pounds to go and I only gained 23. So I have become best friends with my treadmill, free weights, and ab ball.
I hope you are all great. Viva, I popped on for a second and saw that you might need a version, but it is resolved- nuts!!!
Hugs, Janet

P.S- Annabelle is an amazing sister. She loves Summer soooo much. We had one weekend early on of 2 year old behavior but since then she has been fantastic. She is such a little mama and take care of Summer and helps a ton. My husband is fantastic and helps a ton. We are super happy and I feel that we are even closer now with two kiddos. We are much more confident as parents since we actually know what we are doing.
And Summer isn't collic like Annabelle was. That makes things much easier. Summer is starting to get cranky in the evenings and eat like every 30 minutes, but she sleeps all day, so I don't blame her for being hungry. She nurses well and is gaining perfectly.
XBG- are you pg or trying yet? Please tell me yes!
OMG look at that sweet baby!
How's A enjoying her little sister?
lol I guess you knew what I was going to ask!
NO and NO
Oh boooo!!! Brookie needs a sis or a brother. I can't believe she is 3! I can remember when you posted her babies pics and she was the most beautiful baby!
Aw, thanks for checking in! Your family is beautiful and I'm so glad to hear that things are going so well.
Yes, version was thankfully avoided due to a self-turning baby (nothing like torturing me until the last minute!) and we were excited to find out that we are having another girl - although I'm certain we would have been this excited about a boy too.
Friday is my last day of work and then hopefully I'll have at least a week to unwind before the baby comes. I feel like I've been in overdrive lately getting the house ready for "Jillian" and for Mia's b-day party.
Take care!
Tara
I know she does need one!
Thank you, I can't believe it either.
Your girls are just gorgeous!
Ditto.

Tara, I am glad you will chill for a while. Oh gosh birthday parties kill me. I hope you have a great week off and I will be checking in to hear about Jillian's arrival. So exciting!
