We are getting into the double digits… week 10. Okay so we call our newest little princess Ali more often the Alison. The other day at the doctors office they called her name and it took me a minute to say “Oh that’s us” I sorta felt silly, but its true we call her Ali.
Alison has been getting a bath at night this week, that is what I did with Gracee so I thought I’d try it out with Ali and see if she would sleep longer in the mornings. 5am makes for a very long day for mommy! She woke up at two once this week… ate and went back to bed and slept until I woke her at 7.
Ali is really more a fan of nursing then the bottle, we try the bottle often but she would rather cry it out and wait until she can have me… she is very stubborn (like her dad – wink wink) I only pump once a day.
Alison is growing up to be such a big lady… I can not believe how strong she is, she may start walking very soon! LOL
Ali is such a happy baby… she just started laughing out loud this week. And when she is cooing or talking she says HEY it is pretty cute.
Jared can not wait to teach Alison how to play with his blocks… and he wants to teach her to be nice to people. He asks each day “is she big enough to play yet?”
I have to remind myself to drink more water, I make just enough milk for Alison each day but I haven’t put any in the freezer for weeks.
Daddy and I put “Sisters are different flowers for the same garden” on the girls bedroom wall this week. It looks so good ~ we love our little flowers and can already tell they are going to be two totally different personalities.
The newness still hasn’t wore off for Gracee… she loves to get in Alison’s face when she is laying on the ground then Gracee says “Mommy baby Ali hit me.” This is going to be fun as Alison gets older!
I have already looked back to the first picture I had ever taken of Alison and she has changed so much, its not sad but it does touch my heart to know what has already past and what we get to look forward to.
What was life like without Ali? I can’t even remember… she is a healthy wonderful addition to our family. I love to look at her and imagine if she is as excited as we are to have her be a part of our family… she is a perfect beautiful baby that will grow to be a gorgeous little girl then on to a woman (not ready to start thinking about that one!)
