Grandma came down to meet her new little granddaughter! Grandma also came down to play with Amber. Grandma also made meals, cleaned the kitchen, and basically made survival possible that first week.
Both Amber and Taryn loved spending time with Grandma.
Who else lets a 2-1/2 year-old play with water on their lap?
We soooooo appreciate Grandma coming down for the week.

The Girls
Amber has been looking forward to baby sister for several months. When she finally arrived, Amber greeted her with a mix of excitement, ambivalence, and a little trepidation.
Amber likes to watch her little sister nurse. She often knocks on our door around 6:30 in the morning so she can be a part of it.
It's all good until daddy holds Taryn, then it isn't so good anymore. When I picked her up on Sunday morning, Amber got a little riled up and said that Mommy can hold Taryn but Daddy cannot. Her grandpa got the same reaction when he picked up Taryn.
All in all, Amber is doing quite well with the adjustment.

Taryn Mackenzie
Taryn Mackenzie arrived to our family on Friday, February 23, 2018 at 9:21 PM. At birth, she was 19", 7lbs-2oz.
She breezed through all her hospital exams and we were home the following night around 10:00 PM.
It took only a few days to regain her birth weight.
We love her and are so happy to finally meet our little girl.

Playing in the Snow
We had a cold week in February that brought just enough snow. Amber got out in the back yard and played in it.
