We are so blessed with amazing friends and family! I am so thankful for everything everyone has done for us since Makenna's birth. The day Makenna was born my sister ran a ton of errands for me including picking up and taking care of Kylee. She picked up Kylee as soon as she got off work at 4pm and didn't get home that night until after 11pm. She brought Kylee to the hospital to meet her baby sister and also brought tulips for me and a musical, glowing seahorse for Makenna. My mom was there for me during labor. She stayed at my house and took care of Kylee and the dogs while I was in the hospital. She also ran tons of errands for me, stayed with me our first weekend home from the hospital (Robert went out of town for army stuff), and has been amazing with helping occupy Kylee and easing her through some of her meltdowns. Vickie was also very helpful in the hospital. She came and checked on me each day and brought me daisys in a gorgeous vase. She came and stayed all day with me our 2nd day home from the hospital. She brought us breakfast and then entertained and took care of Kylee while I tending to Makenna. Our awesome playgroup friends (Rikki, Alycia, Christina, Traci, Joanne, Lara, & Tara) have been providing us with meals so that I don't have to cook. Christina watched Kylee while I was in labor. Rikki took her to a birthday party a few days later, and several other friends have offered to watch Kylee and/or take her places if I ever need them to.
We've also received some more baby gifts including: hand-me-downs from Rikki, stuffed animals from Charli (her very own!); socks, swaddle blanket, grooming kit, and 2 sets of matching dresses for the girls from my Aunt Debbie; 3 outfits from Lt. Ayala; 3 outfits from Michael & Donna Wright; 168 diapers and a case of wipes from one of Robert's co-workers; and a dress and teething toy from Joanne and Gavin.
