coo

23 February 2007

Julia still sleeps a lot, but she also can melt your heart with her talking. She can really coo up a storm these days, and especially does so when in her daddy’s arms gazing up at his face.

Juila gets lots of love from her sister as well and will sometimes even giggle.

Daddy working

21 February 2007

Yesterday was Tim’s first day back to work after a month home. He and Kayla had really bonded while he was here, spending lots of time together. Today Kayla seemed to realize that daddy going back to work was not just for yesterday. Here she is up at the crack of dawn insisting that she go to work with Tim. She had purse in hand ready to go.

swinging away

We had a nice visit this weekend with grandma Delores, grandpa Wayne, Kelly and Jennifer. They came up to meet Miss Julia, and once Kayla warmed up she reveled in all the attention. We took a walk up to the playground and were treated to a four generation swing.

There were of course many hands to help hold Julia which was especially helpful on Sunday as I came down with a flu bug and needed my own rest. The girls are so lucky to have such loving family around.
A special happy birthday to Wayne as well!!

newborn love

1 February 2007

Julia weighed in at 8 lbs, 4 oz today. She has successfully gained back her birth weight. Way to go! Julia is reminding me about how amazing a newborn can be. I love all the funny faces she makes, especially the “O” mouth and surprised looking eyes when she works on something ,hee hee. Don’t forget the blessed “milk smiles”. She has very beautiful eyes that are fun to gaze at when she is in her quiet alert state. I also get my kicks by pretending she is giving me a kiss when she is actually rooting. Gotta have some fun of my own, can’t all be about them, now, right?
