The only thing I had planned for today was to go to the doctor in Corydon. Erin & the girls live there & anytime I'm in that area - I always invite myself over for a visit.
Erin & I have a running joke. I tell her she's my favorite niece & she tells me I'm her favorite aunt. This is funny because she is my only niece & I am her only aunt. That's just how we roll.
Would you just look at this face?!
Madelyn was a very good girl. She held her babies & would hug & kiss them.
So I played with her before I held Payton - ya know - make sure she had enough attention & all... then things turned ugly. While I was holding Payton, she threw her baby dolls. Then when Erin was changing Payton, she took the stroller & rolled it very forcefully into me. Eh - sibling rivalry has to start sometime. It's a tradition after all...
Whenever I'd get the camera out, she'd start saying "cheeeese". So I told her to pose in front of the tree. I put her there & said, "Stay right there & look pretty & say cheese!"
And here is Miss Payton! She got to come home from the hospital Tuesday evening. Brad & I got to see her for just a quick minute when they came to pick up Madelyn.
How precious is this?!?!?!
Of course I had to hold her too!! And everything went a-ok. Her little left arm doesn't move right now. So when you hold her you have to be careful to not let it hang down or anything. So of course, that made me nervous. I told Erin, "if I do something wrong, TELL ME!!!"
Payton never made a sound while I held her. So I asked, "Does this kid cry?!". And Erin said, "Oh yea she does. And when she does, Madelyn tells her 'hey, hey heeeey!" And then she told me how she hasn't really spit up or anything. Weeeeellll, I was holding Payton & Erin was changing Madelyn & we were talking & Payton made a funny noise in her chest. Then her face started to look funny. And then her mouth opened. And lotsa stuff came out. And I just stood there & said, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!" (I'm such a lightweight...) Then we just stood there looking at each other 'cuz I was holding Payton & she had Madelyn on the changing table. Now what do we do?! So I walked over to Madelyn to keep her from falling off the table while I was still holding Payton so Erin could run & get a rag. Yeah-I'm a multi-tasker like that.
