Kaylana's Firsts

Kaylana's First Bath!
Kaylana's First time in her carseat other than the hospital ride home.
Kaylana's First Babysitter! T.J. did an awesome job taking care of Kaylana so Rigo and I could attend the sealing of Doug & Luz...she just loves her Uncle T.J.!
Kaylana's First Time at Church! She got hungry even though we were only there for less than an hour so I spent more time feeding her then actually attending the service! But afterwards she was a happy girl! Can you tell? Love my baby girl...she's my everything!

Kaylana's Firsts (continued)

Kaylana's First Sleepover! with her friend Lacey knocked out! Hahaha. We love spending time with our friends the Browns!
Kaylana's First Wedding! Well, she wasn't able to be at the sealing so the newlyweds came to us! Congrats again Doug & Luz you guys are awesome! We had Family Home Evening at their new place on Monday and they served us a delicious meal and an amazing lesson...they are already filling their home with so much love!
Kaylana's First Tummy Time! More like lazy time if you ask me. Hahaha...but it was so cute. I think she was just tired, I guess Mommy wore her out!

T.J.'s an Elder!

I am so happy for my little brother, T.J, who received the Melchizedek priesthood last Sunday! I'm super excited because now he'll be able to take part in Kaylana's blessing! T.J. is growing up to be an awesome young man, and I love him tons. Even though he's already bigger than me, well actually he's been taller for a long time now, he'll always be my baby brother. Congrats again bro!

4 Weeks Old!

Well I have wanted to update but haven't quite found the time since I've been adjusting to life with a newborn! Kaylana is now 4 weeks old, she'll be 1 month on Monday! This girl is my everything, she brings so much joy and love into our home and we just can't get enough of her! Despite the lack of sleep and the constant feeding, burping, changing, she is sooooo worth it. I was looking through my pictures and noticed that I have over 100 pictures from her first week of life, and over 200 from her last 3 weeks. I just love taking pictures of her and cherish every single moment that I want to capture everything on camera! Hehehe. She has been smiling more and started making those adorable "Ooohs..."

My 4 Week Old Happy Kaylana...love those smiles!!!
3 Weeks Old!

Mommy and Kaylana at 2 Weeks Old!
1 Week Old Kaylana!

She already looks so different than she did when she was born! Actually when I was looking through the pictures of her I realized she has changed every week! We have been blessed so much with this little girl and I thank Heavenly Father for this beautiful child every day. I strive to be the best mother to her that I can be and hope that she feels loved and cherished because she sure is! Both mine and Rigo's families have come to visit at least weekly...they just love their granddaughter/niece!

Lola & Kaylana at 5 days old

Uncle Rojohn & Ashilene stopped by for a visit! Ashilene is 3 months here and Kaylana is 1 week old.

Labor Day! The cousins were staring at each other! Hehe so cute! It is so exciting to have girls the same age! I can't wait to get all 3 of the girl cousins together...they are gonna have so much fun growing up together! Rojohn with his baby girl and my baby girl! Now you can see the size difference...Kaylana is a little over 8 lbs. and Ashilene is over 16 lbs...twice as big literally!

Daddy and Kaylana...she loves to sleep on Daddy's chest!

I haven't had the chance to blog about my labor and delivery...actually about a lot of things...and I really want to! But I will definitely get around to those, I hope. It was an unforgettable experience but I think the details may slip my mind if I don't write them down soon. But Kaylana is now awake and crying so I gotta feed my baby girl!!!
