July 2011: Makenzie Joins the Family

Well, as promised, here are some more cute pictures of my girls. Taylor is a VERY good big sister. She helps me change Makenzie by picking out which diaper she will wear and, get this...she throws away the dirty diaper for me! Talk about a dream child.

The only thing we struggle with is that Taylor wants all of mommy's attention whenever I am nursing Makenzie...which just happens to be all the time! Makenzie enjoys her meals, often eating every 90 minutes, which means mommy has a lot less hands for taking care of big sister. That's been the hardest adjustment...feeling like I have to put Makenzie's needs over Taylor's wants. Overall, they are still cute little playmates :)

The girls playing bubbles together. Taylor insisted that Makenzie hold a bubble wand, too (the green thing in her hand).



Taylor's version of a smile these days :)

Kisses for baby sister

Notice a pattern? Taylor LOVES to lay down next to Makenzie and often asks, "Is this a good picture?" reminding me to break out the camera.

Okay, I am OBSESSED with her dimple. I always wanted my kids to get Blake's dimples, and Makenzie managed to do it! Way to go, baby.



Taylor enjoying her presents from Makenzie...a lollipop (since she kept insisting that Makenzie was going to bring one home from the hospital for her) and some bracelets.

Grabbing a handful of that feathery, dark hair.

I think she kind of looks like a monkey when she's awake...a very cute monkey, of course :)


Love the peaceful sleep of a newborn :)
