Jean Grandparents

Ninny & Kayla

The Jean kids getting love from their grandparents.

I love Ninny.

Girls shopping trip (Kayla is in the carseat behind us).

First dinner out since Kayla was born (to be more honest, since Avery started acting like a two year old!). Both of my kids were very well behaved! Avery loved the live music and cheered the loudest at the end of each song.

Mommy & Kayla.

Happy 3 Weeks Old!

Fun facts about Kayla's birth 3 weeks ago:
1) Kayla was born on the exact same date that Phil and I met in Panama City, FL at a bus stop on spring break TEN YEARS AGO!
2) Kayla was born at 6:23pm...my birthday is 6/23.
3) Kayla was known as Baby Girl Jean for over 24 hours because we could not agree on a name. Coincidentally, last week I was emptying out a purse to donate to Good Will and found the name, Kayla Elizabeth Jean, written in an old notebook. I have not used this purse since I was pregnant with Avery!!
4) Kayla did NOT want to come out to play on her birthday (OUCH). And she has yet to lose her umbilical cord stump three weeks later. Kayla loves Mommy.
5) Kayla Elizabeth Jean rocks!! We are so happy she is here!

Photos of My Children

Here are some random photos of "my kids" from this past week. It is funny...once you add that second child to the family, you go from having "an Avery" to having a family. Crazy.

This was our first family outing with our two kids together. Kayla was almost 2 weeks old in this picture, how sad. While I had no problem getting out and about when Avery was born (because apparently, your newborn needs to visit the beach twice in his first two weeks of life), we have been a little bit slower introducing Kayla to the fine world of South Carolina. The two year old in the picture makes things just a little bit more tricky this time around... :)

Our first family outing was to...The Walmart! How much more redneck can you get??

Our second family outing was to the outlet mall! Much to Phil's dismay, I am slowly introducing Kayla to the wonderful world of shopping.

Still living at home...freeloader?? J/K. We'll keep her. :)

Look at my chunky monkey filling up her carseat!

More please!

My children rock. :)

No matter how hard I try to position Kayla and keep her stretched out, within seconds she will curl herself back up into a little ball. Must not have been much room in Mommy's tummy for her!

Rocket Man

And the award for Father of the Year goes to my husband, Phillip Jean, for building a "rocket ship" out of an empty diaper box and decorating it with Avery. My favorite touch was the "bumper stickers" that say "I love Mom" and "Honk for Milk, Not Doggies". My boyz rock!

Avery Meets Kayla

Here are some videos from Kayla's first day home from the hospital. Avery was so excited and "talking" up a storm! You can not fully appreciate how quickly a two year old can move until you take him to a petting zoo or introduce him to a newborn, haha. For those curious, Avery's enthusiasm has worn off after almost two weeks. Kayla is lucky if she gets a "Hi baby" or "Ka-Ka" anymore...she hears a lot more, "No baby! No baby!!" I wonder if David was this way when I came home from the hospital as an infant to claim my rightful throne as Most Awesome Sattelmeyer Child? Most likely, yes!
