Nana with her 2 new grandbabies:
My first full day alone with both kids-I had to document that I had them both asleep (Mackenna at the top and Karlee at the bottom of the picture) at the same time:
Love those chubby cheeks:
Mackenna's first day of her new dance class was on Thursday, Oct. 8th. She's going to the same studio that I went to for 8 years. Nana bought her new tap and ballet shoes and daddy came home to take her (I still couldn't drive yet-bummer) but she did very good...until she pushed another little girl at the end of class!! I don't know what got into her (actually, I do know. As my sister says, "her world has been rocked" by her new sister), but she hasn't done that again and hopefully it stays that way:

One of my best friends from college (Megan) was visiting from Texas (she came to pick up her brother from his mission) and was able to come spend a whole day with me. It was so nice to have company and have someone give Mackenna a ton of attention all day. However, I'm a bit worried because every time she comes to visit me, I get pregnant 2 months later!!! That definitely will NOT be happening this time:

3 weeks old-loves her swing and the pretty crocheted blanket my mom's friend made her and still has pretty olive skin and dark hair:
4 weeks old-staring to focus on things and even smiled for the first time:
It's been a crazy month and life with 2 kids is definitely double the work, but it's also double the fun (I'm singing the Doublemint song in my head right now). I love my little girls! I'm so thankful for all of the family and friends that have helped me, brought me dinner, watched Mackenna, given me advice, called, droppped of gifts and treats, etc. I'm so lucky to have so many wonderful people who care about me and my kids.

She is adorable! Congrats again! I hope you are getting some rest! And seriously having 2 girls is soo much fun...I love it especially now that they are older!
My favorite part of the picture of me holding Karlee is that Hailey is walking on your counter behind us. HELLO! That just attests to how crazy our family get-togethers are becoming. I didn't even know she did that...good thing she didn't fall.
You are an AWESOME mother of two Britt. Karlee is so cute!
What an adorable little peanut!!
PRECIOUS! Honestly, Karlee is such a sweet baby.
So exciting! I can't wait to meet little Karlee. Xoxo
She's so beautiful! It's so fun to see all these cute pictures!! You're so on top of things! :) I'm way impressed!! Congrats on having them both asleep at the same time! That's quite the feat! :) I could use some tips - we're still not very good at it... :) Talk to you soon! Everybody says hi!
