Beautiful Babies!!

People have been asking who Jessie looks like so I thought I would put this together so you can see for yourself.
(click on the pictures to enlarge)

Our Jessie has been growing by leaps and bounds. Dr. Stewart says that she's perfect and you can't tell she ever had any problems. Rylee loves her and she's always hugging and kissing on her. I love this little family with all my heart. God has truely blessed us with these beautiful girls.
Dr. Stewart and Jessie Kate
God bless him for taking such good care of my babies.

Back to business as usual...

Well, it's back  to business as usual... chasing a 2-year old and learning how to do everything one handed again. My husband and I had forgotten all about our newborn days with Roo but we're getting with it!!
Thank you to everyone who brought us dinners- it was very much appreciated!!

RooBear's baby sister, JuicyJuice

Here are a few pictures of our new addition. We had a check-up with Dr. Dan yesterday and he said she was perfect!! Thank you all for you thoughts and prayers... Y'all will never know how much they meant to me. We're so happy to have our new baby home.

A hard hard week for the Dixons


Our JuicyJuice was born  Monday, May 3 at 7:25 am.  She weighed in at a whopping 7lbs and 4.4oz with a head full of dark hair and the chunkiest cheeks you've ever seen.  Shortly after she was born she was taken to the NICU at HMC because she was having difficulty breathing. She developed a pneumothorax (a small hole in her lung that lets air leak into her chest and causes pressure) on the right side and we had to stay at the hospital for a week while her doctor tried to wash it out with oxygen.  I don't think your ever ready to see your little one hooked up to all the IVs and monitor leads and a tube down her throat.  It was a hard week but our youngest daughter came home Monday morning.  She's just as perfect and beautiful as her older sister and she truly completes this family.  We love you, JuicyJuice!!

Peaches In The Spring

On the way home today RooBear and I stopped by the peach orchard and snapped a few pictures. I love spring and flowers and warming weather and the feeling I get when I pass by one of these orchards. It's kinda hard to explain unless you're from around here because it means so much more to us Peach County girls than just peaches and pretty flowers. It sends me back to when I was young and when I only rode with the windows down. I hope my girls have the same fondness of where they come from when they get older (just as long as their memories are a little less wild than mine).

Here comes Peter Cotton Tail...

My RooBear LOVES the Easter Bunny. I tried to get one picture of her with just her barrette in and she wasn't having it- she wanted to wear her bunny ears to show him she was his #1 fan. Well, Easter Bunny, we're waiting for you to fill up our basket with goodies and toys and next year you'll have 2 baskets waiting on you...

I posted pictures of her previous Easters so you could see how much our little princess has grown.

My brand-new baby. She was 3 weeks old and never opened her eyes to look at him.
1 year old. She LOVED the Easter Bunny!!
2 years old. Mommy's big girl.

RooBear is 2!!

At the last minute (literally, we decided that morning) we changed our minds and carried our shindig to the park. It snowed only the week before but that Saturday was so warm and beautiful that we couldn't make the children stay inside!! We loaded up and moved it out for fun in the sun and we had a blast. I can't believe that my baby is now my little girl. God blesses us every day in every way. Thank you to everyone who came out and shared the day with us and made our little one's day so special... all 40 0f you =)
