We welcomed one of the sweetest and prettiest little girls into our family 2 short weeks ago! Lyla Jay was born on Friday, August 18th at 9:05pm. We are all so excited to add another precious girl to our family. Enjoy a few photos of our party of 5!
This is Lyla. She has already been such a blessing to us all! Babies are an incredible miracle! It is so overwhelming to go through the pregnancy and labor and delivery process….to witness a tiny little life come into the world is something else! We are so thankful for the gift of life and for the privilege of being her parents!
Lyla is pretty chill so far. She sleeps like a champ and is pretty happy most of the time! Jocelyn and Halle are already awesome big sisters. Halle is super helpful and kind and gentle with Lyla. I love watching her “shoosh” and comfort Lyla. She talks to her in the sweetest little voice and is always begging for another turn to hold her! Jocelyn has also been so excited to be a big sister! She asks often to “hold it” and loves to point out her body parts-eyes, nose, cheeks, ears, etc.
Of course we had to have a few “jump on the bed” breaks during our photos. 🙂
Denny was able to be home with us during Lyla’s first week! It was such a blessing to have the extra help during the day, but it was even more rewarding to watch this awesome Daddy in action. Denny truly is a selfless person. He loves us all so well. I was blown away by his patience with the big girls and his ability to manage everything while he let me rest and take care of Lyla.
For the next couple of weeks I will be hanging out with these girlies full time and soaking in all of the baby snuggles I can! My posts will probably be limited and you won’t be hearing much from me until the end of September-I’ll probably be napping or staring at this sweet face!
