April

We have had some crazy weather here. It is 72 degrees one day and then the next day it is 54 degrees and rainy. Then today is back up in the 60's. We have tried to go out and enjoy it while it is here and before it gets too humid. Siena got lots of fun outside toys for her birthday that we have been enjoying. Claire got to sit out there for a little while too.
Sleepy Claire. This is her favorite spot to sleep and she sleeps really well when she is in the bouncer. I realized today that I am getting a little sleep deprived. She really is a good sleeper for being only 2 weeks. She went 5 hours last night between a feeding. She usually goes 2-3 hours between feedings. She loves to nurse and takes her time. She is a horrible nurser when we are out though which makes life hard. This bouncer chair is a life saver she loves to sleep here. I love spending time with her at night with feedings it is just when she is up and happy and wants to play in the middle of the night that is a little frustrating. I am trying to enjoy this time and take it slow.
Happy Easter. She is starting to get baby acne so we may hold off on pictures for a little while. poor baby.
We had a 2 week appt today and she is up past her birth weight. Yeah. She is still in the 20 and 30 percentile for everything but that is where all my kids are. They are all little. It was the first time also that I got pooped on and peed on. She was naked at the Dr.s getting weighed and then she just let loose and pooped and peed everywhere! it was disgusting! It took till my 3rd kid to have that experience and I hope it never happens again. Newborn poop is disgusting.
We said good bye to our good friends the Kuehnes. We already miss them. Morgan and family moved into the ward way back when Siena was a newborn. Tally is just a couple months younger than Siena and Ryann is a couple months younger than Ben. The kids get along so well we will really miss them. For the last couple of months Morgan and I have been doing a mommy swap during the day so we each could have a couple hours to ourselves. That was my favorite time. I will miss my Thursday mornings to myself. Hopefully they will be back again in a couple years. We will be waiting here for them!
Ryann. Siena. Ben. Tally. Adayla. Grant. Kennedy and Binx.
