2 months!
2 months old! i feel like she should be much older already. 2 months doesn't seem that long to have had her in our family. anyways miss adley is growing bigger by the day and changing all the time. she hates belly time, but loves the swing. my mom used to say my sister and i were different from birth, so are these two! i do hope adley has some of the spunk kinsley has, we will have to wait and see. she cries when she is hungry and tired, but other then that she does pretty well. we are starting to have happy awake time. kinsley loves to hold adley whenever she can, i get asked 100 times a day. we are still working on what gentle and nice touches actually means but over all it is going well. i don;t flinch as much as i did, i have been waiting to see how kinsley does before I jump at her.
back to adley she is eating well, and sleeps pretty good thru the night. usually eats about 9, sometimes at 11 and then not again till about 5. thats most nights not every night!!! nursing still sucks and hurts like crazy. the shield helps some but doesn't take all the pain away like it did with kinsley. but we will push on!!
i love sitting with adley and making her smile. she seems to giggle every once and awhile too ,but not enough to for sure say it is a laugh. super cute tho and she already has a lot to say!
so far so good. we just love this little girl! i know already i am going to miss these ages and times with the girls. they are so cute together.
still has those cheeks!
sleepy girl!!!! too hot to swaddle!

the 4th of july
the 4th was alot of fun! we went to the next town over for their fireworks and met up with the tonies. the show was really nice and the crowds were good. we got there about 8 and easily found parking and a place to sit. kinsley was a little startled at first and wanted to sit in my lap the whole show but watched and seemed to like them. adley didn't mind at all. we thought she would cry but she didn't, i think she slept thru most of it.
K and A! so stinkin cute!
all the kids!!! Kinsley, Rece, Lochlan, Carmine, Adley, Tierney. what a crew!
family photo! couldn't get a good one for anything, this is the best we could do!
kinsley and mommy!! she is watching the show!
car ride home! out cold!

big girl
well kinsley is becoming such a big girl!!! she is no longer using a highchair. she climbs up into the table chair and sits like a big girl!!! she can finally get herself down too! we are using a kaboost under her chair that just makes it a little higher so it is easier for her to eat. so far so good. she is still super messy tho!!!!
kinsley is also in a big girl bed now!! her crib changes into a day bed, so we went ahead and tried it the other night and all went well. kinsley would have stayed in her crib just fine but she is just getting to heavy and my back can not handle getting her in and out all the time, it will be a few less times i have to lift her in the day. tonight will be night 3. so far she stays in the bed and sleeps fine, she even waits in the bed till we come in the room when she wakes up. that may change as she gets used to it so we will have to wait and see.
i will posts some pics of both later!

MRI
kinsley had her MRI today. we are home and she is sleeping off the meds. she did great and really didn't cry to much for the IV or the meds. i thought i wanted to be in the room with her but i changed my mind quickly. brandon stayed in with her and i went out and waited by her recovery bed. we won't get any info for awhile, probably a week or 2. they said she did well and handled the meds just fine, she will just be very sleepy for awhile.

neurologist
awhile ago we went to the pediatric neurologist for kinsley. brandon really wanted to get to the bottom of her left side issue and just have an answer. i was fine either way. so we went! in the first minute in the room he asked what took us so long to come see him, which was nice that he right away validated our long time concerns. i told him honestly brandon had wanted to come along time ago, but i wasn't interested, to me a diagnosis doesn't help me, it is just a word.
so after a long appointment where he asked a ton of questions and played with kinsley he told us that he feels she had a stroke when i was pregnant. nothing to do with labor or birth or anything i did at all, just a fluke. he has no way of telling why it happened, but since no monitors ever went off during labor it had to have been before hand. he recommended a MRI to verify, but told us she has caught up nicely, we did all we could do and to continue with it. the MRI will just prove the theory i guess. he seems pretty confident he will see something. so she will have that done on july 7. she is not allowed to eat for 6 hrs before hand so that day will suck!!!
the dr also said that this could definitely be the reason for the breastfeeding issues, swallowing, choking...basically every issue we have had with her.

1 month appt
ok adley finally had her 1 month appointment. the dr had been out of town so we had to wait an extra week.
anyways, she was 11lbs and 22.5 inches. in the 75-90 percentile. i just have big kids!!!! she is all around healthy, but does have some cradle cap and acne. he said once we get her head cleared up her face will also clear up and be fine, i hope so. other then that he said we could try some gas drops to see if that helps with her fussiness at night. we will see if that works, i wanted to try them but wasn't sure if she was too young.
nothing else was really discussed, she got one shot and cried..but not too long.
all in all we have a healthy baby!
