It was such a blessing to have Grandma (Christina's mom) to come visit, especially when we were sent back to the hospital with Ariana for a few days. She had a high fever and after many tests and careful watch, it was determined to be a virus and we were able to go home again with a healthy baby. We didn't get to do much sightseeing while Grandma was here, but we were all thankful for her help and Bella especially enjoyed playing with her Grandma.
Since Grandma has gone back home, I have been adjusting to having two girls to watch and love. Thank God for Bella's afternoon nap...may it remain till she is at least 4. Overall, Bella is doing great and we are really proud of how well she is adjusting. She acts up a little when she feels she is not getting enough attention and the other day she might have thrown a spoon at her little sister (Ariana is pretty tough, thankfully) but most of the time she wants nothing more than to hold her and kiss her. She can't wait till she can play too, but for now, is satisfied playing with her baby dolls...nursing them as mommy does and changing almost as many stinky, stinky diapers. Ariana is an expert eater, pooper and sleeper doing all three several times a day. She slept 6 straight hours last night and likes a long, late afternoon nap just like Bella...hooray! We are planning a trip up North this weekend...our first with 2 girls , so we will have to update you on how that goes. Hope all is well and we shall blog again soon!
