My sweet Allie





I cannot believe our sweet little girl is 2 1/2 and now a big sister! She is great with Gabe and constantly hugging him saying "love you Gabe". She is doing better, but definitely still adjusting. I have tried to give her plenty of mommy attention, while also letting her see that I have to care for Gabe too. Susan has offered to watch Gabe for me tomorrow morning while Allie and I go to the zoo with our friends. It is hard to find a happy medium when it comes to balancing my time between the two of them. Hopefully this is something that I will get better at over time.

That is so hard..you give to who needs it most at the time! At first Bryce could lay and Addy got more...now I find myself having to be right over Bryce all the time! It works out and you will be great at it :)

Your blog is so beautiful. The pictures are wonderful. I cracked up over the dog. I remember similar feelings when my daughter came along. Thanks for letting a grandma enjoy your exciting life.
