Mermaids
Elle has really taken off with her swimming. She is a little mermaid girl and proud of it. She kicks and moves or flails her arms to bring her back to the side of the pol or get her from person to person.She prefers to swim the lazy river at Schlitterbahn. She is wearing a puddle jumper the whole time, which makes all of this possible! She even floats on her back, all by herself.
Lily hasnt' gotten into the pool yet but loves her bath time. She turned two months old yesterday. She had to get 3 shots which made for a long day for her. She just didn't feel to well after that. She is weighing in at a little more than 12 pounds and quite the eater. She is full of smiles and coos and all things sweet and cute. She is just a happy happy girl. She is the perfect fit to our family of four.
Got to run, our adventure today will be storytime at the library and signing up for the summer reading program. IT IS GOING TO RAIN TODAY, SUPPOSEDLY! Got to dress and feed my girls.

Lily Grace
Slow your role sister. You are already six weeks old! I can't believe it. You were just born last week or so it seems. We really really really love you. You are such a sweet girl. Born with a head full of blonde hair and tan skin (thanks to jaundice). You are such a cuddle buggy. Sweet as sugar. You go with your flow and let your sister run the show, for now.
I already can't imagine what life was like before you were here. You are growing so fast. Last week I took you back to the doctor to check on your jaundice. The corners of your eyes still have a tinge of yellow and I wanted to make sure that you were OK. Your bilirubin level was a 7.8, which is fine. They took some blood from your heel to rule out some scary stuff and diagnosed you with breastfeeding jaundice. Basically, keep doing what we are doing and it will go away eventually! You did have 4 heel sticks in a row, in the first week of life. Your bilirubin level was high and we were fighting going to the hospital. We won, finally. At your appointment last week you already weighed 10.9 lbs and were 21 inches long. That is a 3 pound gain and you grew a whole inch. You nurse like a champ!
I had forgotten how much I love this newborn age. I adore it and you. Some nights you sleep really well in 4 hour increments and some not so much! Your poor tummy gives you trouble but I am hoping this will go away soon.
We love you so much my Lily Girl!!
