The Aftermath


I finally feel like I am getting into some sort of routine and stable lifestyle with two kids now. It's about time right? It did take a while for me to get used to an extra kid but now I couldn't ask for anything else. It has been so much fun having a baby in our house and watching Aylee interact and take on small responsiblities to help out. It has been good for our whole family and brought us closer together. I am really thankful for the health of both of my darling kids and wonderful husband.

Malekai's Changes


Doesn't he already look mischeivious? He really has changed so much in the last month. It's amazing how fast little baby's grow up. He'll be two months in a week. Time sure is flying by. Malekai really is such a blessing in our lives. His spirit he brings to our home lifts us and reminds us to be grateful for our blessings.

Aylee's Got Attitude




Aylee's sassy attitude keeps getting bigger and better! I might really hate this when she's a teen!


Halloween




Halloween was such a blast this year. I stayed in the general area of my house but did wander between neighbors homes to see thier creative pumpkin carvings and haunted houses. Aylee dressed up as a cheerleader and loved every minute of it. She went around the neighborhood with a couple of her friends from St. George. She only got scared once and went screaming into the house but seemed to get over it pretty quick! Malekai was a pea in a pod and Andrew and I were too lame to dress up. Oh well, there's always next year!

Big Sis!


Aylee is still getting used to being the big sister. She has occasional meltdowns (as do I!) which I suppose is normal but for the most part she is really good with Malekai. She tries to make him smile all the time because she doesn't really understand that he can't smile right now. I felt bad the other day when Malekai was crying and she burst into tears and said, I don't want him to cry anymore mom! I think she gets frustrated by his crying sometimes but mostly she just doesn't like to have him upset!
