Sisters

Guess who Audrey got to wake up to after her nap yesterday? Is there anything more special than sisters?

Can you tell Audrey loves Alaina? She's such a sweet big sister.
What a blessing they are to one another.

Let's Hear it for My Girls...

Alaina - slept from 9:30p - 6:30a! Yea for a great sleeper! She's usually anywhere from 6-8 hours. How about that 9 hours!

Audrey - surprises us daily - hourly - by what she can say and understand. Yesterday we ate mexican food and she was eating a chip and wanted some salsa. So I put a bit on and she tasted it and made a face. I said "is it hot?" and she said, "yes, spicy!"
Then last night I laid down with her in bed and I usually tell her to move over so I can lay down. When I started to lay down she said "move over bacon!" Hilarious.

What big girls I have.

Happy 2 Month Birthday Baby Alaina!

Here are a few pictures to celebrate our baby girl. We can't believe she's 2 months already. Such a big girl. She is smiling at us so much and loves to coo to us. What a sweetheart!

Saturday in the Park

We love Saturdays and we spent this Saturday in Landa Park here in New Braunfels. There are so many great, unique things about New Braunfels that we love and Landa Park is one of them. So we put on our sweatshirts, winter caps, and bundled baby Alaina in her blanket for a stroll in the park.

Audrey loved the ducks! We fed them some of Nettie's dog bisquits.

The geese were very loud.

The back of the park was very beautiful with the river running through it. We had a great walk.

Then we stopped to play on the playground. Audrey and Daddy played for a really long time while Mommy and Alaina cuddled on a bench (with Nettie there protecting us from dangerous little kids.)

A few family pics while we're out...

and then Mommy got to play a little bit too.

We ended our morning with lunch at Pat's (a family favorite.)
All that playing made Audrey hungry.

and Alaina sleepy.

What a great Saturday!

So Big

Wow! Our girls are getting so big! Alaina is almost 2 months old. We just can't believe it.

"I'm this big Mommy!"

so serious

and not so serious

Alaina is really starting to respond to us. She is smiling more and more.

look at those big blue eyes!

We're hoping she keeps her blue eyes like Aunt Sarah and Aunt Jess.

And then there's Audrey...

Modeling her winter coat and hat.

and reading to her sissy.

Audrey is so sweet to Alaina. She holds her all the time. Kisses her. Gives her her passy (or "zoie" as Audrey calls it.) And she helps us so much by telling us when Alaina is crying.

Audrey got big leggos for Christmas and absolutely loves them.

She works so hard at building things. The other day she built something, held it up, and said, "puppy." And it actually looked a bit like a puppy. :)

She loves for us to get down on the floor and build with her. I think Troy likes to relive the good ole leggo days a bit himself.

And Audrey got some new bath foam from her Aunt Jess. Troy likes to give her a bath hairdo.

What fun we are having at the Douglas house. Is it naptime yet?
