Loving life with our 2 boys!!

H and D are going to be best buds! They have already been so cute. Especially H. 

He loves giving kisses to D!

And D doesn't seem to mind the kisses either. 

I can't believe how easy the transition from one child to two has been. The first few weeks were very difficult trying to recover from the C-section and having H come down with a nasty fever while we were in the hospital and then develop a double ear infection after we got home. Luckily baby D has stayed healthy and avoided sickness and has been such a good baby. He is so mellow. He only fusses if he is gassy, hungry, poopy, or tired. Compared to H as a baby he's super easy. I know a lot has to do with he fact that I'm a little more experienced at this mom thing, and also that he doesn't cry non stop like H did as a baby. 

The best thing that has helped with avoiding post partum depression is getting out of the house. We walked around Walmart one time just so I could.

When the weather permits we go to the park. 

Home Depot is one if daddy's favorite things so we go together as a family to get home improvement stuff with "dada" H loved the car cart!

We also ride the 4-wheeler with "mam-ma" and the cousins. H had so much fun he fell asleep! 

Free day at discovery gateway was a blast! H loved the balls in this exhibit!

The water was also a hit with H! 

Having 2 youngins requires a baby backpack. (I need a double stroller)

H loves the weekends when we spend more time with dada. He loved the motorcycle arcade at boondocks with dad.

I'm really enjoying having a little babe again! He's growing up way too quickly though.

H is getting too big too! On rainy days we just look out the window! 

We are so happy and blessed with these two darling boys! There are more adventures to come!! 

Baby D has arrived!

We are excited to announce the new arrival and addition to the Ballard clan

@5:45pm on 02/06/14 weighing 8lbs5oz and being 21-1/2 inches long. He couldn't be more perfect! 

Has a lot less hair than his brother did but very big hands and feet. This boy won't be in newborn clothes very long.

Thanks for the warm wishes!
