Past, Present, Changes

I wanted to compare the kiddos at around the same age. This is Bailee a day or so before Halloween, so about a month older than Maddox is right now. I think in these pictures they look quite a bit alike. Maddox does have more of Luke's looks though, and Bailee has more of me. This is Maddox's Halloween costume, it was so cute I just had to run out and get it. :) (You've already seen Bailee's, she's going to be a BYU cheerleader) There's a major difference in Maddox in these pictures compared to the last few posts. Did you notice??

Today I did a little photo session with the kids. I need some pictures for the cute frame in my bathroom (see below) and envisioned black and white of the two of them together. Now I just need to get them printed. Maddox adores his big sister, and I'm certain she feels the same. They both love to make each other laugh and smile. Priceless.

My most recent home project has been the upstairs bathroom. I've been looking for a shower curtain, and stumbled across this one at Target. It was love at first sight! Love the trees, love the colors, love the owls and squirrels. To make it even better, one of CTMH's newest paper packets, Twitterpated, matches it perfectly! (You can check out the paper on my ctmh website!)

This frame probably looks a little funny.... But I covered it in the matching Twitterpated paper, and am going to put some cute pics in tomorrow. Unfortunately, neither of these pictures does the color of the bathroom justice. It is a really pretty green, if your a CTMH fan, it's sweet leaf. The pics look dark, but the bathroom is really bright and fun. Love it! (almost as much as Maddox's room!)

So did you figure out the difference in Maddox?? Besides that he's gaining weight (he's up to 11 lbs 9.5 oz) and getting taller (23 1/2 inches).... No feeding tube! That has been so nice, and kind of stressful at the same time. I have to keep track of every cc he takes in so we can be sure he's getting enough to gain weight. So far, so good, but it's harder than I thought it would be. We also saw the cardiologist last week. Things are pretty much the same, though his heart function is down slightly. They decided to go ahead and put him on a med to help increase the function. We'll keep following up, and hopefully not need to make any major changes or have any surgeries until the first of the year. He's almost 3 months old!!!! It's hard to believe, but we really are so grateful for every minute we have him.
