Kyla is 2 months old!

Kyla turned 2 months old on October 29th! She is doing well. She now weighs 10 lbs 6 oz. She has gained almost 4 lbs since she was born! She went from wearing premie and newborn things to some 3-6 months already! What a growing little girl! *** This is the precise moment that Daddy starts blogging on this site. Mommy has a tendancy to use exclamation points to punctuate every sentence.

7PM...Mommy is napping and Daddy snaps this photo of her junior apprentice.

This is where I tried on my new favorite cologne...."Eau De Projectile Vomiteau".

Kyla started smiling at 9 weeks! The only thing better than our little princess cracking a smile at you is nothing.

Kyla has also been trying to hold her bottle for a few weeks now. She isn't coordinated enough yet to master this skill but she's about as good with the bottle as Daddy is with his after a long Saturday of watching football.

Uncle Chad finally got to meet Kyla.

The verdict is still out on whether or not Kyla enjoys the "Johnny Jumper". It's an apparatus that hangs from a doorway and suspends the child (bungee style). Give her 5 minutes in this thing and you can expect a range of emotions....joy, fear, sadness, confusion, sleep....

She has this reflex where she straightens her legs and can stand up. She seriously only needs a hand to keep her from toppling but the will is there.....honest!

This sleepy "Johnny Jumper" moment is brought to you by: "I crapped all over my clothes and all over Mommy earlier this afternoon and am completely worn out by all of my efforts....I can sleep upright if I want".

Here is the latest video of Kyla 'talking' to her Daddy....

Kyla is 8 weeks old!

Kyla is 8 weeks old! We are still struggling with the reflux and are trying to find the right mixture of meds to help her feel better. Hopefully that will happen soon.


This is what we've resorted to to clear Kyla's sinuses.... a steamy shower with the door closed. Plus she loves the sound!

Kyla and her friend Claire. Claire is 10 months old.

Kyla slept on Daddy through most of her first Halloween party.

Kyla is 7 weeks old!

Kyla is 7 weeks old and is doing much better. She is still having some reflux issues but overall she is improving. She is definitely a high maintenance baby but we love her to death!

Isn't she cute?!!!!

Kyla is 6 weeks old!

6 weeks was a lot like 5 weeks for baby Kyla but she started to feel better. Her pediatrician changed her formula to a hyperallergenic type due to a suspected milk protein allergy. FINALLY, her screaming has calmed and she has been sleeping again. Her "baby acne" or eczema (whichever it may be) looks worse but it slowly getting better....

Friday, October 12. Notice the difference from the last picture. Poor thing..... :(

Kyla is 5 weeks old!

The day that Kyla's grandma left she turned 5 weeks old. This started a bad few weeks in little Kyla's life. She developed what seemed to be baby acne the day her grandma left. She didn't sleep well the entire week and her face continued to get worse and worse. We did go to the pumpkin patch though and as you can see Kyla loved it as much as Mommy and Daddy!


Daddy likes to imitate Kyla......



Mommy playing dress up again. Can you tell how much Kyla loves it?

This is a close-up of Kyla's baby acne on Sunday, October 7. Take note of the difference less than a week later.

Kyla is 4 weeks old!

Mommy likes to play dress up with Kyla and take pictures. Kyla is VERY excited about it, can't you tell?

Kyla met her Grandma when she was 4 weeks old!

Kyla was sleeping like this and Daddy was just imitating.....hehee!

She was sleeping like this too..... ODD we know.

Doesn't she look like such a big girl?

Kyla is 1 week old

Kyla is 1 week old and we survived the first week home! She is a good baby and sleeps a lot. She only cries when she is hungry. We LOVE being parents!

The "new purple"!

Kyla is so little that we had to buy preemie clothes for her.

Kyla's birth

Baby Kyla was born on August 29, 2007! We were so overjoyed to have her become a part of our family. The pregnancy was long and difficult but it is so worth it now that she is here! Kyla got to meet her MiMi the day she was born!

"All because two people fell in love"

This is where it all began.........

For those of you who are NOT from the south....it is a southern custom to have a groom's cake in addition to the traditional wedding cake. Michael's was a rendition of the University of Texas tower.
