We're American! We don't plan, we do!

The title of this post is a quote from the movie Midnight at the Museum 2. The boys recently saw it, and Luke has been spouting off that quote for days. I'm waiting for him to shout it out on the tram one day. It is also an appropriate title for this post, which really has no rhyme or reason to it.

I'm starting to really appreciate having two girls in a row. I have so many dresses which Afton was only able to wear once. Now Clara gets to wear them once. Darn those babies for growing so quickly!

Afton (around a month and a half)


Clara (2 months)


On the Clara front, we are head over heels in love. She is just about as sweet as a baby can get. The best part is that she is sleeping through the night. ALL of my other babies woke up about every 2-3 hours to eat. It was hellacious. This baby? She eats at 7:30 pm, goes to bed around 8:30 pm, wakes up at 4 am to nurse again and then sleeps until 7:30-8 am. Angelic.

The other kids are not so angelic...but we are head over heels for them too.

LOVE,LOVE,LOVE these babies! The coloring between the 2 girls is so interesting. So happy to hear that Clara has settled into a good night routine.

ps.....the previous deletions were by me due to typos.

When we found out this one was a boy, that was my first thought- "What? You mean all those dresses will only be worn once?"

I'm 100% okay with having 3 boys and 1 girl. But really, it's hard knowing that those dresses won't be worn again- at least not by my girl.
