Lilah




My, how fast they grow!




sleeping beauties






My brother, Adam, and his wife, Heather, welcomed Lilah Faye on July 27. Lilah weighed 7lbs 15oz and was 20 inches long. She is beautiful and we're so happy to have her in our family! I'm also thankful that Riley will have a cousin the same age. We went to visit with them on Wednesday. It's so funny so see Lilah and Riley side-by-side. It's hard to remember that Riley was that little just 3.5 months ago! Lilah was a little jaundiced and spent a few days under lights...hence her little "tan" is a stark contrast to Riley's snow white skin! Sawyer is in love with Lilah too and wanted to take her home with us.

How precious. Alexis has a girl cousin that is 4 months older then her and they are the best of friends. It is amazing how fast they grow. I look at pictures of my kiddos and it is hard to imagine them really ever being that small. Trying to cherish every moment since they grow up SO fast.

Soooo cute!! Friends of ours just had a baby in July also and it was amazing to see Gavin next to him. It IS incredible how fast they grow in such a short amount of time. Gavin looked so big compared to Kadem. I have been spending some time each day just holding Gavin while we play music and dance around the living room, because I know that I won't be able to do that forever! I really cherish those moments!
