TWO WEEKS...

What have we ben up to these 2 weeks??? GROWING!!! no joke. It seems like little melanie has ben with us for ever and a day...
Adrien seems to love her more and more everyday. the other day he woke up in a really good mood and was hugging and kissing her and telling her that he loved her "a million" =) He seemed to grow over night this first born of mine... Somedays i miss him being all tiny and cuddly, and other days he'll say or do something that makes me wonder where the heck did he got that from??
Little Mellie is a true blessing. I honestly didn't think I was going to have enough love left in myself to love 2 children, but its amazing how a person's heart can grow.
How can I NOT love this face right here???

or this one right here???

Life has ben (almost) back to normal around here...except for those sleepless nights that this princess has ben sending our way. but even in the middle of the night when Im tired as heck and honestly cant think straight I always remind myself that pretty soon she'll be all grown and Ill miss these moments with her. So I literally treasure every single day (and night). And its kind of upsetting that her newborn clothes are begining to be to small on her...where has the time gone???
But Im thankful to God that she's growing and is very healthy and (most of the time) is a very calm baby.
We have lots of fun with her, and she is loved down deep to her bones!!!=)
This is little Mellie at 2 weeks...
I would put a bow in her head but daddy thinks that its going to make her head all funny shaped, so we're letting him get away with it now, but when we'll be out and about more often...he'll just have to deal with it...after all she is a GIRL!!!

This was her first bath. She's a smart little girl, loves to take baths. she'll be screaming the whole time we're undressing her and as soon as we put her in her little tub she looks like she's in heaven=) she just chills...

And this is Adrien playing his drums...I seriously wish I knew how to post a video of him for you all to see... The guy is a true rock and roller!!! haha=)
No, seriousely? I think he's going to be a musician of some sorts, he loves to sing and knows so many songs, and everytime he sits behind his little drum set or picks up his gutair to play he always asks for us to sing so he can play for us.
anyways thats what we've ben up to these days, its ben really nice out so we're thinking of packing up our little family and heading out to the park sometime in the near future. Little Mellie needs to meet the sun!!!

Our Little Girl...

My little Melanie
You have no idea how proud of a momma you made me on that evening of May 6th, when I finally got to see your pretty face and kiss your sweet little nose!!! From the moment you took your first breath I could tell that you were going to be loved by many from the tears on your daddy's eyes to the smile on your grandma's face.
You stole our hearts the moment you came out.
It was such a long journey with you. You, my little love, decided to take your sweet time coming out into this world. You had so many people waitting for you it was unbelievable.
The moment you were born, you instantly became a daddy's little girl. No one could calm you down for a long while except for him. He would tell you how beautiful you were and how pretty your eyes were and how much he loved you and you seemed to quite down for a bit and turn your face towards him. When you smiled in your sleep he would say that your dreaming of daddy (we'll just have to talk about that when you grow up a bit).
Im ashamed to say that even I didn't know what to do with you. You came out so tiny I was scared to hold you at first, but then my love, you and I, we connected. Now im scared to let you out of my sight. You've ben with us for a week but it seems like we've spent a lifetime together! There hasnt ben a moment that you weren't on my mind.
I cherish every single minute with you, cause pretty soon you'll be all grown up, and I won't be able to hold your tiny body and have you fall asleep on my chest... I have a feeling my darling that you'll be an independant little girl=)
And your older brother? I don't think he quite understands that you're ours forever, but he loves taking care of you. he runs to you when you cry, and everytime he leaves somewhere and then comes home he asks "where's baby?" He holds your bottle when we feed you, and throws away your diapers and always asks if he can hold you! And he seems so proud when someone asks him who you are he says that your his sister! Do you see my little baby, how someone as tiny as you are changed our family so much?
We still have a whole lifetime of adventures together my love, there's so much that I cant wait to teach you and show you. Ther's so many stories that I would love to share with you and we have so many things to talk about! But dont rush growing up dear, take it one day at a time, enjoy every moment and remember to always find the good in the bad.
My sweet baby, your a blessing from Above and a dream come true,
I have a feeling we'll be the best of friends...
I love you with all of my heart and more,
Your momma
