Our Chirstmas Holly!

We couldn't resist this face! So here we are with our second pup (yes we are crazy) our 4 month old lab mix...Holly. We adopted her through a local rescue Paws and Prayers...She is SOOOO stinkin' sweet. Sawyer and Holly seem to be getting along pretty well.

  1. Oh my gawd! I couldn't resist that face, either. She reminds me a lot of Cassidy, who also has that white spot on her chest. Sawyer is so cute, as well. He looks huge! Love your hair! You look great.

    Thanks for the talk this morning. :)

  4. You all are crazy!!! But if you are, then so are we. We adopted a second puppy about six months after we adopted Sierra. :) Having two dogs is wonderful--four times as much work as one, but wonderful!

I can't believe it happened to me!

Sometimes I am in complete awe that we have a baby. I am so in love with River and I feel very fortunate! River is a really good baby; She eats great, sleeps well, smiles tons and is easily comforted when cranky. I am really happy to have her here. On the flip side, I am learning all of the beautiful things I missed out with Zoe. Bath time, reading books, cuddling, smiling, cooing, bites of new foods, so on and so forth...the list could go on forever. I still battle with postpartum depression, but I do feel like I am coming out on the other side. My sad days are fewer apart. I still feel terribly guilty that I battle depression. We have tried so long and so hard for a baby that it seems selfish of me to be sad when we have a perfect baby in our arms. HOWEVER, it's not the kind of thing I can control.

Breastfeeding or bust

Since the moment I was pregnant I knew I wanted to nurse. I love the idea, I love the thought of holding my baby skin to skin...I love the concept of nourishing my child and watching her grow. Immediately after River was born, my BP dropped when they were stitch me up (i had a 3 degree tear). So when she was wide awake I was not feeling so wonderful. I tried to nurse during that time, but it just wasn't happening. We were able to get a good latch at the hospital...but my nipples were bruising and man-o-man did it hurt!! BUT...it was what I wanted and everyone tells you breast milk is best. Once we made it home, we had an appt with the ped the next day. River was losing weight...normal for a nursing baby. So...we went back 3 days later for a weight check. Still not gaining weight. The doc told me to nurse every 2 hours...to wake her up if I needed to. Okay...I can do this! Back to the doc...still LOSING weight! At this point I had been calling the lactation consultant at our...
