I apologize. I've been a slacker. I'm going to blame that second kid. Suddenly life gets much more complicated when there is more than one munchkin to look after. I would love to catch you up on everything that has happened, but that would take forever. Looks like I left off where Lucy was born. Fast forward to today, she is a fat and happy baby. To look at her, you would never know she was a preemie. Sure, she's small for her age... (she wears 12 months outfits, even though she'll be celebrating her 2nd birthday next month)... but she's got a huge Buddha belly and chunky little thighs, so she's doing just fine. Here are some pictures of her since birth ...
5 days old.. 1lb 9oz
the NICU became our home for 4-1/2 months
so tiny ...
Luke wasn't allowed to come into the NICU, so he had to watch from the window ....
She's finally home ... heart monitor, feeding tube and all!
Such a good brother!
Her first Halloween! (5 months old)
Such a sweetie.
7 months old
Even at 8 months, she still has the feeding tube, even though we'd stopped using it long before.
9 months old
1st birthday! (I have over 100 photos from this day alone ... yeah, I'm more than a little behind)!!
Easter, 2011 (also took more than 100 pics this day too... maybe that's a post for another day...)
It's so hard to get a perfect picture from both of them
At Joy's wedding June, 2011 (took over 300 pictures this weekend, so maybe I'll post those another day)
She's a good hiker .... (slept most of the 11 miles)!
14 months old
I think this is a good place to stop for now .... Yeah, I'm going to leave you hanging. :) Don't worry, it only gets better from here! And I promise to be a better blogger from here on out.
