7+ lbs

Our LITTLE Cora has gotten so big!! she is almost 3 months old and is now 7 + lbs. I know thats not that big but she seems so big to us! She is starting to smile and be so much fun. Its funny because the last 4 years of trying to get her here and the pregnancy all seem like such a blur. Im so greatful for my girls.

I WILL survive!!!

Nellie had her first day of Kindergarten today and she did GREAT!! I did NOT!! I wore my "big" sunglasses so she would not see me cry. I was standing next to a lady watching the kids play on the play ground before school started and she asked me if I had a pen, all I said while crying is..."no but I have a kleenix" IM A DORK!!! I thought about her all day long and I boohoo'ed all day long but she did great and she loved it and cant wait to go back. Im sure tomorrow will be easier and I will be...OK...I also took Cora to the Doctor today for a check up, she is now 7 lbs!!! WOOHOO!!! but she got 3 shots...tonight is going to be a long night!!

School day blues......

Wow!! I am NOT looking forward to tomorrow!!! I havent been able to stop crying all day. everytime I think about Nellie being at school all day I loose it!!! You'd think Im never going to see her again, its crazy! Im sure she will have so much fun. She told me that she probably wouldnt ever want to come home again because she would have so much fun. I laughed...then she left the room and....I cryed. To bad I cant blame my emotions on pregnancy anymore. I dont like the thought of her being at ALL day kindergarten in a portable in the very back of the school. The bathroom is SOOOO far away from her classroom that her teacher told us to pack an extra pair of pants and panties. Im sure that in about 3 weeks I will be fine and she will be fine I just dred the thought of leaving her tomorrow and not being able to go into her classroom with her. I CANT let her see me cry. I AM SUCH A BOOB!!!!

Nellie and Cora

My little Nellie is now 5!!! she had a birthday on July 24th. She starts all day Kindergarten in 1 week and Im soooooo scared!!! Its a good thing I have Cora or I think Id sit in front of her school all day!!! I cant belive how old she is getting!!! I guess I should probably start growing up soon!!! Cora is 8 weeks old now and weighs almost 6 lbs. It sounds silly to say but...she seems so big!!! she has grown so fast. she isnt doing the things a 2 month old should do, she is just starting to act like a newborn. she will be behind 2 months until she is 2 years old. Its kinda fun because I have and extra 2 months to cuddle a newborn. She is doing great!!! I love being a mom!! I am soooo gratefull for my children and I feel so blessed to have both of them! Hopefully some day I'll have more! If not, then at least I know I have 2 miracle babies!!!!
