Another Year and Another Week...

I turned 31 on Sunday and little Savana 3 weeks. I had a low key birthday celebrating with my family at home. All I wanted to do was relax on my day after a busy Sunday with Louis gone from 8:30pm-5:30pm. Louis got me a fancy pants camera for my birthday that I got a month earlier since I wanted it for Savana's arrival. I just love taking pix with it! So I am posting another photo shoot, enjoy!

2 Week Photo Shoot & Constant Attention

My little Savana is 2 1/2 weeks old and is such a sweet girl. She is still a very easy baby, sleeping most of her little life away. Her sister on the other hand has been more than a handful! As much as Baylee loves to help with her baby sister, she has been really jealous lately. Here are some of the things she has done to try to get my constant attention:

1. piddling on the floor!

2. covering her entire naked body with a brand new bottle of Desitin (not easy to wash off btw!)

3. emptying 2 large bottles of baby powder on the carpet (at least the room smells good)

4. picking up fresh dog poop with her bare hands from the backyard and bringing it in the house

5. wetting the bed (something she has only done once in her life and it was a long time ago!)

6. walking around with a diaper she put on herself and having one of Savana's binkys in her mouth at the same time

7. having to wear one of Savana's bibs every time she eats now

8. spilling everything that can possibly be spilled and make a huge mess

9. begging for me to nurse her

10. wanting me to give her a sponge bath with Savana

11. and constantly needing me to help her with EVERYTHING! Even though she can do all of it herself

It has been really hard since all of our families have left and I have been on my own. I just pray that this phase passes quickly!

A busy First Week...

Savana had a busy first week of life. Besides having lots of friends and family visit, she had her first Halloween and her Baby Blessing! Needless to say, she slept through all the events. She has been such a good baby so far. She is a real sleepy baby. I have to wake her up for most of her feedings and she rarely fusses or cries. I am just waiting for her real personality to shine through any day now. Baylee just absolutley adores her and can't get enough of her still. She helps with everything and thinks she can do it all...I have to really watch out for her! I am recovering great from the delivery--so much better than a c-section! It has been wonderful having family around to help out too! Thank you so much everyone!

My two Angels!

She just loves loves loves to hold her baby sister...

My little helper of many diaper changes...look at her focusing, this is serious business!
