Play Date

February 24th was Skye's first play date with a close friend of mine's son Jace. He was born 3 weeks after Skye and weighs 3 lbs more and way longer. They got along great and it was nice to have another adult to interact with. We were able to talk for about 30 minutes before we both had to breast feed. We are such mules. haha. Skye was not in the best of moods the whole time especially b/c she drooled milk on her arm. Ooopsie messy eater. heehee. We positioned Jace and Skye on the couch sitting in the corner to capture their pure joy of being with one another. Although they look like they're standing, they're not quite there yet. Thanks Luisa for a great day of comparing stories and catching up.

Happy Holidays

Two more firsts included Skye's first Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day. She looked so cute both days and she getting so big so fast. She is sporting the heart berret and the Elvis attitude for all the Irish fans. She is so much fun and starting to lift her head on her own. She looks so much older when you can see her neck. Crazy. We're so excited to see her sit up on her own. We Love our little one and good thing because she was our Valentine and is our lucky charm.

Grandma's visit

February was a great month mainly because Grandma Rogers came to save the day. Lissa came up for 9 days of generous assistance to this rookie mother. She was so awesome forcing me to take naps and spoiling little Skye so much that she won't sleep without being held now. haha. We got to introduce Skye to her Bryant cousins, take her first trip to walmart, and get a real bath in her new tub from G-ma. She absolutely loved her Grandma and would sleep for hours on her thanks to her swadling skills. We learned a lot from her and had a great time. We got her hooked on the bachelor, made my awesome potato cheese soup bread bowls, and just relaxed here and there. Nick and I got a couple moments to ourselves to chill which was amazing. Thanks Lissa and a huge shout out to Craig (hence the grandpa onesie) for loaning her to us for so long. You guys are the best.

Skye's First outgrown PJ's

Skye is growing so fast, I can't believe it. She has grown out of 2 preemie PJ outfits and this is one of them. She couldn't really straighten one leg and Nick and me were just laughing while she tried to help me hear how uncomfortable it was. She is getting taller, chunkier, and cuter ever second and we love it.

My sweet girl

Here are a couple pictures during her second week of life. She is so adorable, I will probably just be adding pictures of her outfits and her crazy poses with no particular blog worthy story. The stink bug, raise the roof, and leg crossed sleepy head are my faves featured here. Hope you don't get annoyed, but I love her so much and I'm so excited to tell people and show how fast she is growing. The last picture is when Paige and Rebecca came over to visit and Paige was so sweet with her. She didn't want to hold her at first but couldn't resist by the end. I think she liked her cousin.

Week 1 continued

Skye has already changed so much from these pictures but I thought I would document the most annoying thing we had to put up with. Skye had to wear this glowing bilirubin light up her back for the first couple days which made her look like a glow worm. It was such a hassle but it helped get rid of the jaundice she had. I guess it was worth it.
