A time for change!

Aren't they cute!

So Kameryn and I got our hair cut today. I desperately needed it. I have always wanted to chop it off but never had the guts because I love being able to put it into a ponytail but today I went for it. Kameryn wasn't sure she wanted to cut her hair either but she did and hers really looks cute!

Kameryn goes to the dentist on Monday to see how her gums have healed and hopefully they set up a time to get her tooth fixed. She is soo excited about that. I am not ready for her to be toothless yet..

Maddie and Kenzie are doing great. Smiling and laughing so much. It is amazing how fast they get to this point. They both absolutely love Kam. They laugh at her all the time. She just loves that too. Sometimes she is up in their faces alot and they let her know. I am really very happy the way that Kameryn has taken to them.
Tonight I went out for some much needed night out with some other moms. It was really nice to get out. I missed my girls but I think its great for a mom to miss their kids sometimes. It makes me a better mom. Plus it is nice to talk to other moms that understand where I am coming from. Richard is such a good sport for staying at home with the girls. They actually had a good night! I was so happy! I really appreciate him because he is soo supportive of me. But yeah, I had fun and the girls there all seemed really nice :)

This week has been a really long week... with Ryan (my brother in law)finding out that he had cancer, all I did all week is pray for their family and worry. I really hope that things turn out alright for them. My sister has been really strong through this even though I know it has been tearing her up inside. But one thing I have learned from all of the fertility treatments is that we have a strong family. And the power of prayer can get people through things. God has plans for everything and even if we don't understand them they all are for reasons. You just have to keep faith and continue to pray even when you think no one is listening. So anyone reading this please keep him in your prayers.

A crazy day!!! 2 months old!

































Today the girls are two months old!!! They have changed soo much. They are growing like crazy. At their appointment today Maddie was 9 lbs 7 oz and 22 inches long and Makenzie is 10lbs 1 oz and 21.5 inches long. Both girls are smiling and laughing like crazy. It is so much fun now to have them respond to me when I talk to them. We found out today that Makenzie has acid reflux that isn't too bad but they gave her meds to take for it. She also has a birth mark on her bottom that looks like a big bruise. Doctor said it would fade. But other than that the girls are doing great, sleeping great, and loving big sister Kameryn!
Kameryn gave me quite a scare today. At the doctors office with her sisters she tripped and knocked a tooth out. Went to the dentist and they can not put it back in. So we can either let it go until she gets her big girl tooth in 2-3 years or put in a partial. We are going to put in the partial so there is no chance of it messing up the alignment. It is expensive but we don't want her to be uncomfortable about it. We have to wait until the gum heals up in aproximately 2 weeks to get this done. My little girl looks so grown up with a missing tooth :( Other than that she is doing great. She is taking dance classes and loves it. She had a smile on her face the whole class. I really think this is her thing. Unfortunately it isn't the cheapest thing but whatever makes her happy!
