The Candler Family: Let's Try This Again

Ok. So I'm not a very good blogger, it's just a fact. I don't think about updating it, I get annoyed trying to make it look pretty, and by looking at it you wouldn't even know I was expecting a second child, much less already had one; but nonetheless I'm going to give this a go...AGAIN. That being said, I have a lot to catch up on to get to a place where I can move forward and try keep up.

For starters, we were blessed with our sweet Zoe Elizabeth on October 26. She has been such an awesome addition to our family, and two months in I can't imagine our world without her. Evan has adored her from the start, and not much has changed. I know it won't always be like that, so I'm definitely enjoying his love for her while I can.

Day One. Still crazy about her.

Evan continues to be such a joy and a little stinker all at the same time. He is at such a fun stage and is constantly saying things that make us laugh. I have posted a video that really highlights who Evan is right now. So silly.

Zoe is a growing girl. We just had her two month check up on the 5th, a little late, and she is a healthy baby. For those of you that don't know, we spent 10 days in December in the NICU at Texas Children's with Zoe. She had a bacterial blood infection that she had to receive intravenous antibiotics for. No fun. Fast forward to today and she is one happy, smiley, cooing baby. She actually gave us her first "real" smile in the hospital once she started feeling better. At 10 weeks she was 11 lbs 4 oz (50%) and 24 1/4 in long (95%). She is one tall girl!
