It is hard to believe that one week has already flown by! In some ways I am glad cause that means not much longer and the nursing bit will get better. Little miss is like clock work. She nurses every 2 hrs...will be glad when that is more like 3-4 hrs! She can get a bit fussy when she doesn't want to be awake and for some reason confuses me with the pacifier. We will definatley have to work on that one! ;)She has plenty of ready and willing hands to hold her. The kids all ask for her daily. Even Heath has warmed up to her and now gets excited to see her when he first wakes up in the morning. Chad is a great big brother and loves to hold her. After we got back from the hospital he was begging that we watch a movie together while he and the other kids took turns holding Laney.
Heath is so excited to show people his baby that if I am nursing he has no qualms about lifting the nursing cover to show his baby! We have been having talks about not showing Laney's bottles to others! :) So far it is getting better and he is respecting mine and Laney's privacy.
Alyssa has been trying her hand at changing the diapers without complaint. She asks to do it! Why can't they all be like that!?! :)
Bria loves to rock and sing to her and to help pick out what she is going to wear.
She already has two nicknames. The Lanester...dubbed by Chad and Laney-bug, something Aunt Chel helped think of!
The dog knows her as baby and every time you say "Come see baby" or "Where's the baby?" his tail starts wagging and one time he went to the swing to try and find her, but she was in her bassinet. He was a little disappointed.
We also had Laney's first photo session with my friend, Amy. You can get a sneak peek here. More to come soon!
