When I found out I was pregnant with RJ...KA was only 5 or 6 months old. I got a lot of shocked looks when I told people I was pregnant and heard "Are you crazy?" and "What were you thinking?" a lot. This is why it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made...
The girls being only 14 months apart...don't know life without each other. They are extremely close. After explaining to them that I had a baby in my tummy when I was pregnant with Cole, I had to explain to them that they were not in my tummy at the same time...they assumed they were. They remind me so much of me and Joanne. When I walked in my room the other night and spotted them sharing a pillow and blanket to watch TV...I just about started crying...but I grabbed my camera instead. Their closeness has been a complete blessing these past few weeks as we have adjusted to life with Cole. Speaking of Baby Brother...we had our first official bath tonight! We have FINALLY had everything fall off that is supposed to fall off of a newborn baby boy...we won't even go in to how weird getting used to a boy has been! AND it was nice that our nightly spontaneous T-T fountain was contained inside a bathtub...and completely missed me! We have not been so lucky during our sponge baths the past few weeks! Cole did really well...I thought he would scream the whole time...but he held off to the very end...he's such a good boy:)

hel-LO? would it be obnoxious to comment on every single sentence of this post?! because i totally want to. having a little boy for the first time too, so much of it i can relate to!
i was so happy for all of our boy's "attachments" to finally fall off! and though i don't get showered on during diaper changes too much anymore, he still does shower me at bathtime often. luckily, he's been turning to the side lately so it stays contained in the tub and not all over the wall! ha! it's a whoooole new world.
