Hanging with Miss Leyba

The girls
Dozing on Mama. She was awake about five seconds earlier.

+ Miss Leyba is five weeks old today!

+ We are currently very into smiling around here (especially first thing in the morning). She even giggled with me earlier today!

+ We’ve gotten lots of sleep every night for over a week now. It appears that Miss Leyba now understands that nights are for sleeping. (Knock on wood.) Last night we even got four hours of sleep in a row. Wow, it was amazing! The things I took for granted before.

+ A new fun activity: pushing down on her legs when her feet are placed on a firm surface. It’s like standing on our laps! Yep, this is yet another month three developmental milestone. (You go, Miss Leyba!) I swear, at this rate, she’s going to be crawling before we know it. She already likes pushing her feet against our hands to move herself forward when she’s on her tummy… pseudo half crawling, minus the arms. I think she must use a similar method at night when she migrates in bed in order to be closer to me. She’s all about cuddling with Mama. (Love it!)

  1. my goodness but she’s beautiful! and i can’t get over how big she is! i can see you’re not exaggerating about her voracious eating habits :-)

  2. This photo is such a beautiful portrait. If ever the phrase “sweet repose” had an image, this would be it. Mama and a happy, quietly snoozing babe. Fantastic.

  3. Carrie,

    That is a beautiful portrait of you and Miss Leyba.

    We need to get this one printed and framed.

    love

  4. Thank you! All right! She really is growing so fast; it’s fun documenting her growth with all these pictures.

    Dad, I have a plan for sharing and printing photos for our families. Will hopefully get to it soon!
