brother and sister.

three months old

Valentine's Day

four weeks old.

 

 

 

She sleeps for 3 to 3.5 hours at a time at night, but stays awake SO much during the day.  I'm glad she doesn't have her nights and days mixed up though.  

She still likes to keep her hands tucked close, and near her face.

She loves being on her tummy and can lift her head up pretty well to look all around.  She also loves her boppy pillow and when Bray lays down on his tummy and talks to her.

Her hair is already starting to lighten up.  It was SUPER dark, almost black when she was born, now its a dark brown, almost looking as light as Brayden's.

She finishes her bottle like a pro.  Never much of a problem with eating.  With Bray, he always fell asleep while eating, and would never burp or want to finish.  Lyla, does much, much better.

These are pretty much some of the first good photos I've been able to get of her.  Every time I've decided to take some, she either starts a fussy fit or spits on her fresh, clean clothes, or decides to not lay still.  It's funny though, because she's hardly ever cranky, unless I pull out the camera.  Hopefully she'll grow out of not liking the camera. :)

brother and sister.

So many people told me that he'd be jealous.  That it would take him a while to adjust. That he'd feel left out.  That he'd beg for attention. Not Brayden.  Not at all.

He clings on to her all day long.  He is always asking to hold her and help feed her.  He randomly goes over to her and kisses her forehead and talks to her.  She just stares at him when he's near by.  She hasn't quite figured out how to smile at will, but her eyes light up when he's talking to her.

Giving her "essmo" kisses... aka Eskimo kisses.

and hugs. :)

She fell asleep in his lap, and he moved on to color on the floor next to her where I laid her down.  He really is such a good and helpful big brother.

 lyla, on the other hand, was not a happy baby.  i've been attempting getting photos of these two in their christmas jammies for a few days now, and every time i try, she gets all fussy on me. :( will have to try again on christmas day.
