First week of summer

It started off pretty rough for us,well for Ava I should say.Poor baby was so sick for a whole week!After 2 trips to the Dr. they finally diagnosed her with phnemonia.That was scary for me,I didn't know what to expect.She ran fever,coughed and felt bad for a whole week,there were times she would start feeling better and then the fever would always come back and knock her back down.The cough is still there but no fever.I'm praying it stays away.She is ready to start her summer break and so am I!
The 2nd or 3rd night she was sick in bed,I was downstairs and came up to my bedroom,there was a note laying on my bed from Ava:)It was a beatiful picture of a sunflower and said "look on th back",she had written me the sweetest little letter that said,"I love you Mom,Thank for taking care of me" with a side note that said,"come to my room". Poor baby was so sick and even so thought to write me a thank you note for taking care of her,these are the moments that make me so happy to be a mom,its the most wonderful thing I could ever do.I went to her room and she had written me several more I love you notes:)My sweet grl,I love her so much!

Eli has been going the whole time,he's stayed the night with his friend K.J a few times and they've been pretty much inseperable the whole time.I'm so glad he's got a good friend to play with that lives right here in our neighborhood.He's doing so much to help me wth Evelyn and I'm so glad he's wanting to be involved,he loves that baby so much.Now if only I could get him to stop picking on Ava so much!

This past saturday Evelyn turned 1 month old!Its going by so fast. She's changed so much.
She is still doing so good sleeping,I almost always get 5 or 6 straight hours of sleep in.I'm hoping she keeps it up!Ricky helps out by staying up with her and feeding her a bottle of formula around 10:00 or 10:30 and she's out! She's really alert now,always looking around wide eyed and she has started smiling,I love it!She looks so much like her daddy,she's his little mini me:) The kids are so helpful with her,they love her so much and I'm so happy they have her to grow up with.I'm so happy she has them.
She really is a good baby,I couldn't ask for better.We have not been able to get her out of the house much because she's so little and the heat is already horrible this year and its not even June!
Thankfully my mom has offered to come once a week to watch Evelyn so I can take Eli and Ava out to do something fun,we'll probaly go to my mother in laws a lot to swim.I look foward to doing that with them.
