Christmas Season

I can't believe how much Abbey has changed in the last 3 months, she has become such a good sister, and really a funny girl! She has been watching Kung Fu Panda, and now thinks she is a ninja.. watch out cause if you see her she might karate chop you while saying hiya! She is either a ninja or chasing you around the house saying "I'll get you, you dirty pirate" Where she came from I am not quite sure, but this little girl likes to play with the boys! She is so sweet and lovey though too.. every night i get big hugs and kisses and she tells me she "loves me sooo much"
These are just some pictures i have taken this month!







Pete Severinsen and Zoo Lights

My sweet sister Ashley had her 2nd little boy Peter Severinsen!! He is such a cutie and he was a big boy weighing in at 8lbs 15oz!! Her and her babe are doing good!!




We went to Zoo Lights while the same day we went and saw Pete, I was holding Lucy while my brother was taking pictures thats why there is not very many!! Most of them were retarded.. thanks to my teenage brother!!
He was a great help in keeping track of Abbey cause the zoo was jam packed with people! It was fun though!


A Beautiful Blessing

We blessed Lucy the weekend after Thanksgiving, it was such a great day, the weather was so perfect, and we had alot of our familys come, and it was such a good day:) The men who stood in the circle were Laner, Landon, Ron (Lane's Dad), My Dad, and my Grandpa Cowley (which was so special to me!)

Then & Now

Abbey @ 6 Weeks

Lucy @ 6 Weeks


Lucy has more hair:)

6 Weeks




I can't believe it's only been 6 weeks our world is totally adjusted, and we have the sweetest little girl!! She is such a calm baby, i can count on one hand how many times she has had a freak out last longer than 4 minutes.. she eats good (she is 12 lbs) sleeps good and is all around a pretty happy baby:) I have to say that I have gotten really lucky, both Abbey and Lucy have been really good babies! I am really enjoying this stage that both my girls are in! Its so fun to see them change! Lucy is starting to smile and she loves to stare at Abbey!

2 Weeks

2 weeks ago, our little world changed and I feel like we are really getting adjusted, it has been a really long 2 weeks, but we have survived, and things are really good, Abbey is doing really really good with Lucy, her little temper tantrums are slowing down, and I feel like she is back to her normal self (at least for today) The picture below pretty much sums up the last 2 weeks, except Lane has been at work since I got home from the hospital :( so it has been just me for the most part (I have had a lot of help from my mom, my grandma and Ashley) I feel like i can now take both the girls out and we can go places alone!!



We went to a pumpkin patch just a couple minutes from our house on Monday, its so fun, its a bunch of old guys who run the place, not a woman in sight helping out and they are so great, they love taking all the kids out and its so fun!! We grew our own pumpkins this year, so we didn't pick any, but we loved going on the wagon ride, and they had a little train that the kids could go on, Abbey didn't want to get off!! She kept looking all over for tigers and monkeys with her "binoculars" (see the picture above)

Lucy is doing awesome, she is sleeping for about 4 hours at night, and I feel really great!! We went to her 2 week check up and she gained about a pound and a half since we left the hospital, she was born at 8 lbs 11 oz.. when we left the hospital she was 8 lbs 3 oz, and today she was 9 lbs 8 oz!! She is doing so good!! She is eating like a champ, and for the most part is such a happy baby!! We are all loving her!

Lucy May Owens

Miss Lucy May is here:) She was born October 6 weighing in at 8lbs 11oz and 21 inches long! It was a long day, but definatly ended in a great way! I was induced at 7 am and dialated pretty quickly, when it came time to push, she just wasn't coming.. so they tried the vaccum that didn't work, then they tried the forecepts, that didn't work so finally my dr said we were going to have to do a c-section!! It was not so fun, hurt much worse then when I had Abbey, and the meds they gave me didn't last the whole time, so as they were stitching me up i started to feel it! But at the end of the night we got a sweet little girl who is such a happy baby, and sleeps pretty good.. 4 hrs. at a time, I am a happy mommy!! Abbey seems to be adjusting pretty well, she loves her sister and thinks she is so cute!
