Family of Four

It's so hard to believe that our littlest princess has been in this world over 2 weeks already.  I have so much to say and so little time!  In short, our little family of 4 is doing well.  Welllll, not totally well as Adalyn was diagnosed with fifth disease yesterday, and this virus, combined with the early terrible two's, has made this last week a bit difficult.  There is NO WAY I could have gotten through this week without my mom's help.  There hasn't been a single day that I've missed a shower, and my parents even babysat for us last Saturday so Andrew and I could go on a date.  Life is hectic with the end of Andrew's semester in full force, but it's oh so wonderful.

And precious, precious Eloise is just that.  Thankfully, she is a super easy baby and really only cries when she is hungry.  She is a frequent smiler...and pooper, and I am really enjoying getting to know her.

An angel baby princess:

Adalyn continues to love to hug and kiss "baby", but definitely has been exhibiting some jealousy lately.  And it just about breaks my heart to not be able to hold them both together, but we are really trying to keep Eloise from getting sick.

Before we knew A was sick:

My friend Ute came by to visit on Saturday and of course brought her camera.  I'm so grateful for her friendship....and her pictures!

Just love my little monkeys.

Oh, and the cherry blossoms are out!
