Lee-La

By -
Our pretty little 'Lee-la" (as Kyla calls her) is 4 weeks old today.  I am working on adjusting to life with 3 - it is getting more manageable each day! 
Taylor and Kyla adore her and want to give her a little more attention than she can handle, but I'm glad that they are so excited about their baby sister:


She likes to be held...all the time.  As much as I would love to just sit and cuddle her all day long, thats pretty difficult with 3 kids age 3 and under. :)
Yes, I am one of "those" moms - as David says.
Sometimes I have to strap her to me to get anything else done!  (Don't Judge...)
We just absolutely adore our cute little baby girl!!!
At 3 weeks she was 7lbs 6oz and almost 21 inches long. 
She has also had more sickness than my other two babies - a full body rash, a rectal tear, thrush, a stuffy nose, and an eye infection - all in 3.5 weeks of life!
She's strong!  She got so mad during tummy time last week that she flipped herself over already.
 David bought this outfit (minus the bow...) for Taylor - love it!


We sure do love our sweet Lil' girl!

Lilia deserves one of "those" moms who can hold her close and who she can snuggle with constantly even if it means being strapped on :).

She is adorable...it must be so much fun to watch your kids interact (though I'm sure it's exhausting at times right now too).

That picture of her and Tay on the bed is so cute!!

She is darling, and I'm glad we got to see you and all 3 of your cute kids yesterday.

She is such a doll. I was so glad to hold her for a while last night. Poor thing to have gone through all that so far! And what sweet older siblings she has.

I was one of "those moms" too, but it was just because I had to carry Violet everywhere to protect her from Eddie. She looks very cute and I promise to come see her sometime soon when I don't have germs to spread!

I didn't know she had been sick- poor thing! She is adorable though!! (And I'm impressed you can get anything done, carrying a sweet baby or not!)

Brooke is the same way. She NEVER wants to be put down. It is very hard getting anything done. I'm still adjusting to having 3 kids. Let me know if you have any secrets to help me out :)

She is so cute. That is so sad that she has been so sick. Poor little girl. I'm glad her brother and sister love her so much.

She is BEAUTIFUL!!!! Glad you are adjusting with three kids!!! It is a rough transition! Love the outfit! Poor little girl what a rough 3.5 weeks with all the sickness. Hope she gets well! She looks happy though :) So sweet. Love the picture with all three of them!!!

oh and yes you have to be just "one of those moms" especially with THREE under THREE. There is no other way :) ))

Can't wait to meet her in a few months! She looks perfect. I love all the matching outfits with Kyla. Sorry to hear she's been sick. Every time I call mom all she talks about is how sweet your little girl is. Love it.

You shouldn't ever feel bad about being one of "those moms". Might I suggest a Beco baby carrier - it is the best one on the market in my opinion and soooo comfortable.
