Now is the time of year we get to look back on the year and count our many blessings! I am thankful to have a beautiful family with 21 wonderful girls and a loving husband and an extended family who loves and supports us in all we do. The past 2 weeks have seemed to fly by and I can't believe Christmas is only 5 days away. Our baby Ivie is 2 weeks old today! Madelynn had a wonderful 2nd birthday on the 9th with her party on the 11th (Minnie Mouse Themed) and we had a few pictures taken of the girls at the house. We've also been busy baking for the neighbors, wrapping presents and even went to a baby shower at my office on Thursday. Our bad news of the week - Madelynn started running a fever (102.7-103) over the weekend and had to make a trip to the emergency room yesterday. She is on another round of antibiotics and seems to be feeling a bit better today. We are also working on potty training but are still having quite a few accidents. If anyone has some advice I would love to hear it! Ivie is settling in well. Last Tuesday she was 6lbs 13ozs. She is eating about every 3 hours and waking up about 2 times each night. We are looking forward to the week ahead.
