Our ONE day of summer in Rexburg!!!

We went to the splash park today and the kids had a blast. I went with Melanie and Addisyn and then Abby(the family that lives in the basement) and her kids. It was so nice out. It was a little cold when a cloud came but the kids still had a good time. It was so nice to get out and do something in the nice weather. I hate that there is no summer here. I miss the sun! It is supposed to rain the rest of the week :( But i will be thankful for the ONE nice day.

Yellowstone National Park and The Girls

We finally got up to Yellowstone. IT IS BEAUTIFUL!! I cant wait to go back. We went with some friends and made a camp fire and had hot dogs and watermelon. We had a blast. It was the first time we have done something where i could take advantage of this great camera i have. There was so much to see and most of it to hard to do with a newborn but here are some pics of our adventure.

 I have been so bad of taking pics of the girls. I realized that we have hardly any pics of Sydney in the hospital or the 1st month so i have been taking alot of pics during the day. They are both growing so fast.

Sydney's One Month!!!!

I can't believe it! Sydney is already a month old.Time has passed so fast. She is so big already! When we went for her 2 week check she was almost 9 lbs. Who knows what she weighs now. She is growing like a weed. She loves to be held and Addyson loves to hold her. Things are starting to calm down and we are adjusting to life with 2 kids. I went back to work this week. I am just working a few hours a day until i get used to it again. We are doing great and we just love our new addition. Here are some pics.

At the Park with Gangy!!

I forgot about these pics we took at the park when Gangy was here. One of the last days she was here we all went to the park. It was nice to get out of the house for a bit and it was so nice outside. Addyson loved going down the slide with Gangy. They had such a good time. Here are some pics of the event.

She's Here!!

Sydney McKayla Paul was born on May 4th 2010. She was 7 lbs 14 oz and was 19 1/4 inches long. She has dark hair and blue eyes. She is just beautiful! I am hoping her eyes stay blue but i seriously doubt they will. She is a great sleeper so far. She only wakes up once a night right at about 3 am. Addyson had a rough couple of days getting used to her being here with us but she loves really loves her little sister. She is constantly wanting to hold and kiss her and every time she hears her cry or make a noise she says "baby". She is so cute and is learning to adapt very quickly.

My mom was here with me for 11 days and it was so great to have her. She was such a huge help. She stayed in the hospital with me the whole time and let me sleep all that i could. Jason had school so he came home with Addyson at night. I was really sad to have her leave. She did so much for me. She bought a sewing machine and was busy like a bee making covers for my rocker/glider and for a swing we had for Sydney. I will post pics of them cause they are amazing!

Jason's parents and little sister also came in for the blessing, along with Grandma Pat and Papa Dean. It was so great to have everyone here. We did the blessing here at home and it was so great! Jason did a great job and Sydney slept the whole way through. It was really neat to do it here at the house. Jason's mom and sister are staying till the 19th to help out and let me tell you how thankful I am. They have been great! I don't know what i would have done with out all this help. It has really been a huge blessing.

I am healing fast and feel great. I sometimes try and do too much and end up paying for it later but Jason is really good at telling me to stop and take it easy.  He takes very good care of me. That is all i have for now. Here are some pics of the past week events.
