Happy Valentine's Day

I know Valentine's Day is still a couple days away, but I had a free moment now so I thought I would post early.

We did a mini photo shoot the other day that didn't quite go as planned (why do I even try to plan things with toddler and a newborn?).  We did get a couple decent photos out of it though.

Such beautiful eyes
Beautiful girls in hearts
Daddy was off to the side trying to get them to smile
Cute Evie

Evie even got in on the fun!
 Evelyn is also 2 months old!  I can't believe I have been a mother of two for 2 whole months.  It feels like Evie just came into our lives, but then there are times where I can't remember life without her.  She has grown so much in the past two months.  I don't know her exact weight and height as she doesn't have her 2 month well visit until closer to 3 months due to scheduling conflicts so I will just have to wait till then to see how big my baby is officially.

There have been a lot of changes for us recently.  We started officially working on potty training yesterday with Lily.  Yesterday went great, today has not.  She has decided that she likes that the design on her pull-ups disappears when she goes in them, so she is refusing to go in the potty.  I think I am just going to buy underwear and deal with whatever messes come with it because right now she is finding diapers and pull-ups to entertaining.

Evelyn is starting to get on a schedule a bit more so that is helping with my sleep and there for sanity.  The main problem with the schedule she has come up with is that her afternoon awake time is at the exact time as Lily's nap time.  I would love to have a little bit of time to myself to get cleaning and such done.  I have heard about different ways to put your child on a schedule that works around your family schedule so I am going to have to research it a bit more.  With Lily we didn't put her on a schedule because the one she came up with on her own worked with our life at the time.

I haven't started my new job yet, but hopefully will soon.  Right now I am enjoying all the time I am getting to spend with my girls.  Also, I have taken up the hobby of sewing.  I have made an apron for myself, and just today started a dress for Lily.  I will try to post some pictures of things I make as I do them.
