CATCHING UP!!!!

Okay so I'm finally caught up!!! Oh and I forgot to mention that we are moving into a house next week. oops.LOL but we are still living here in Vernal YAY. So Mckinley is now 6 weeks well will be on Tuesday but anyways things are starting to calm down and I'm less stress. Gosh it really is hard going from having one child to two but I love it. Mckinley is a very cuddly baby where as Takoma wasn't so much and Takoma was sleeping through the whole night by three weeks and Mckinley is still waking up once every night.Bummer. Hopefully that will change in the next couple of weeks. So I know I'm way late about this but our Christmas was good except that we had to take Takoma to the hospital since basin clinic was closed. She was going nuts Christmas afternoon like banging her head against the walls and hitting her hands on her head so Cameron took her in and i guess she was in the process of having an ear infection. Yuck. and then two days later Cameron had to take me to that building next to basin clinic(can't remember the name) and I had mastitis. But other than that we had a great holiday. Takoma will be 18 months on the 29th! I can't believe it she is growing up to fast for me but she is such a great big sister. She loves giving Mckinley the bink when she's crying and has to be the first one there if she starts crying. She is going to be so protective over Mckinley it makes me excited to see what the future holds for the both of them. This was taken today. Kinley just chilling out.

Takoma got her first hair cut a couple of weeks ago and it was long over due. Thanks mom!!


My handsome sweetheart

My parents came out the week after Christmas to see the baby and they brought Takoma her xmas present which was a toddler rocking chair and she loves it. She reads her books and watches movies in her chair. Thanks Mom and Dad!!!

Everyday Takoma looks forward to getting a bath. I can't wait to put her in swim lessons again this summer.






Mckinley 3 days. You totally forget how small and light they are when you have an older child.
Well hope you all are doing really well have a good week and weekend.

Mckinley Raegen Ruppe!!!

So yes we did finally have our beautiful baby girl but I've just been way to busy to post about her. I have a few min. to spare so I'll give it a go. Mckinley Raegen Ruppe came to us on December 14, 2010 (2 days late) on Tuesday at 9:25 p.m. Weighing at 7lbs 8oz and 19 1/2 in. just like Takoma she was born with dark hair. YaY. My delivery was amazing! I decided to get the epi when I got to an 8 and an hour to an hour and a half later I started pushing and I only had to push 3 times!!! One hard and the other two were little pushes. Weird. It was seriously a 3min. delivery and it was so easy. Having Mckinley out is the best thing in the world. I love not being pregnant anymore and I don't miss one thing about being pregnant. It is very difficult having two babies 16 1/2 months apart but I know it will pay off when Mckinley is 6-9 months and starts playing with Takoma. Takoma loves Mckinley so much she gives her kisses all the time and tries to pick her up and feed her the bink when she's crying. If Mckinley starts crying Takoma is the first one to get to her. It's super cute! I love my two little girls and I know they will be the best of friends. I'm so grateful that Mckinley is healthy and there were no complication during my delivery. Well Mckinley is calling to be fed so that's all I have time for but I will try to keep everyone updated. I have more pics to put up that are more recent but that will have to wait for tomorrow or Saturday. Hope everything is going well for everyone. it's time to push!


she's here! Our beautiful girl is finally here!
