Tuesday Tidbits!

--First and foremost, DEREK IS HOME! Yay! And the even better news is that last night was his last night of night float at the hospital, so starting tomorrow we'll have some semblance of normalcy around here again. Since mid-March, we've added a new baby to our family, had lots of visitors coming & going, Derek working nights, and Derek out of town. So almost a month later, things will finally start to settle down! Thank goodness!
--Well, things will settle down for a little bit at least. ;)  Because next week, we are going to Disney World! :)  I just ordered matching Disney shirts for the girls to wear next week..so excited!
--Hopefully I'll get Derek to do a post about his time in San Francisco sometime this week. :)
--Shelby is very into bugs, and she LOVES it when Derek finds ladybugs for her. I love these pictures of her with the ladybug on her arm. :)



--Newsflash: having a newborn & a toddler in the house is HARD work. And I'm worn out. I seriously can't thank my parents enough for coming to aid when Derek was TDY last week. I don't know what I would have done without their help.
--Last week, I had my very first outing by myself with both girls in tow. We went to Chick-Fil-A to eat lunch & let Shelby play for a bit. Hadley cried the whole way to Chick-Fil-A. I was a frazzled mess trying to order our lunch b/c Hadley was still crying & Shelby thought we should either be playing or eating instead of standing in line like schmucks (in other words, she was whining). Just as I was about to lose my cool, I turned around to see Shelby rocking Hadley's carseat back & forth while singing "Rockabye Baby" to her. I seriously love that girl, and that is definitely a moment I won't forget. She is already the best big sister to Hadley.
--Hadley will be one month old on Friday..how is that possible?!
--The other day I needed to change both Shelby & Hadley's diapers at the same time, so I had them lay down side by side on the floor. They were both cracking me up b/c the TV was on behind them, and both girls were straining their necks to watch. ;)


Happy Tuesday to you! :)
