Well "fun" might be an overstatement.....the last 5 weeks have been great getting used to our life as a family of 4.....but the sleep deprivation you experience with a 5 week old isn't the most joyful of times. Reese is a sweet baby, she barely makes a peep BUT she does like to eat every 2-3 hours still. Every once in awhile she will surprise us with a 4 hour stretch but those treats only happen about once a week still. Feedings every 2-3 hours make for a loooooong night for a nursing mama. Lucky for us, we get to wake up Reagan every morning and remember that the stage Reese is in won't last forever.....she WILL eventually sleep through the night and I won't always feel like a milk maid!!
Here's some pictures of our Reese at 5 weeks and a few pics of Reagan's adventures at the park with our play group. We've been as active as possible with a newborn and Idaho-spring weather!
Also, Great-Grandma Betty (G-G) has been here this week. She spent the morning with us yesterday and I got a couple pictures of her giving Reese some snuggle time.

Lynne, they are so cute! This stage will be over in a heartbeat! Please get all the support you can, rest, and enjoy your little ones. :) You'll have so much fun as Reese gets older. I think she looks like a mini-you!
