Happy July!

May and June were busy months in the Mitchell household! I am not going to lie when I say that being a mom of two has been much harder than I ever thought it would be. It has been tough to deal with Addie's crankiness and Caden's sensitivity all at the same time. Caden was the center of attention for so long and now we are trying to still make him feel special while so much of our time has to be given to Addie, too. So I may be drinking a few more classes of wine to calm my nerves than usual, but things are beginning to get better and we are starting to develop somewhat of a routine at home, too. We just love both of our kiddos to pieces and are blessed to have them in our lives. Addie is now 6 weeks and a few days old. She is growing quickly. She just started smiling at us recently. Now if she could just sleep through the night, we would all be much happier. Luckily Caden is such a good sleeper that he barely ever wakes up to her crying...thank goodness! Enjoy some of our favorite photos from the past two months.

Addie with Grammy Pammy at our friend Mikey and Carla's wedding this past weekend. I took her to the ceremony but luckily Auntie Kara was around to babysit for the reception so Jay and I could enjoy a night without the kiddos. Thanks, Kara!!! We love you!

At Mikey's wedding with Daddy...isn't her dress just too cute? Thank you Auntie Kelly for buying it for me!

Our little man is growing so fast!

And so is our princess Addie!
