Its amazing how quickly one week has gone by!
So far everything is going so well, Gwen is the perfect baby. She hardly cries unless her diaper is being changed (and that was only because she had a little bit of diaper rash!)
In this week, I have really had time to get to know her. I am so excited to see how much she changes and who she will end up looking like! Right now, she looks similar to Rhayn at that age, but she has her own features, too. I just hope she looks a little like me! Its weird that the first thought I had after looking at her was that she didn't look at all like I expected. Nothing about her face was what I had pictured. I am used to that lovely little face now. I still wonder why I had pictured a baby so different, maybe that baby face is the boy I think we will eventually have. Who knows!
This has been a busy week, even though I was supposed to be "resting" and being "Queen for a Week." Ha, what a load of crap that is! I really didn't get to rest, what with all of the visitors we have had. I also have had to do a lot, like taking her to the pediatrician and going to see dacheese at the hospital. Its been a busy week!
I can hope that next week will be a little bit better, since we won't have a house guest. Maybe we'll be able to spend some real quality time as a family. Just mama, daddy, Rhayn and Gwen! Ah- its neat to say that! My family!

While extended family is wonderful, it is nice to enjoy the closeness of just your husband and children without any outside interference. I know when my kids were little, I never left them with a babysitter. If they couldn't go then I wasn't going either. I didn't want to miss a single minute. I am so glad you are able to stay home with your girls and enjoy them. Have a wonderful weekend.
When you and dacheese were born I was hoping that one of you would have blue eyes, that one of you would look like me. It is so funny that you feel the same way. I can't imagine you looking any different than you do because then you wouldn't be you. So I guess we'll have to say - She looks just like her granma.....
I have left Rhayn with babysitters- but its always family. I am glad that I was able to have her for 4 years before Gwen, just because I really got to know her! I do feel blessed that I can stay at home with them, because it was the hardest thing I have EVER done to dorp Rhayn off at day care when I had to work for a little while. It wasn't so bad when it was us going to school, she loved that so much. I worry how I will feel when I have to take her to school for an entire day!
I guess, dacheese isn't going to wish her baby looked like her, since she does... I think I was pretty shocked to see our birthmark on Madison! No- astounded! I couldn't believe how much differnt those little babies look. Even Will, when showed the pics could finally see how Gwen looks just like him, and NOTHING like me... Oh well. I wouldn't change anything about these precious little girls! They are both so perfect.
