Introducing Miss Lyla Grace

Lyla Grace was born on October 23rd at 9:18 am, she was 8 lbs 2 ozs and 19 1/2 inches. She is perfect in every way. Like you can see from the pictures she looks a lot like Ashlyn. Some moments when I look at her it's kinda scary, I feel like I am looking at Ashlyn when she was a baby.

The hospital stay was good. I have been healing nicely. Like Ashlyn, Lyla had to go on bili lights because she had jaundice. Her bilirubin levels didn't get nearly as high as Ashlyn's which was good. And Lyla's pediatrician let us go home on time, we were able to bring the bili lights home with us. Wednesday we went to the doctors and Lyla's lab levels were good so we were able to stop using the bili lights. Which is so nice, we get to hold her now.

Ashlyn has been such a good big sister. She is constantly giving Lyla kisses and wants to hold her all the time. I'm making sure to give her cuddle time too, so she doesn't get jealous of her new little sister. So far Lyla has been pretty easy, like Ashlyn was as a baby. I have been pretty lucky to have just wonderful little girls.

Here are lots of pictures and videos of our new little girl.
