LOVE

There is a lot of LOVE in our house for this little girl...

So much love, Gavin sings to her all the time...

Adalyn at 2 weeks

Wow! Has it been 2 weeks already? Tomorrow will be when she is 2 weeks old. We visited the doctor this week for her 1 week check up and she is already back up to her birth weight and is looking great! She has been such a good baby and sleeps and eats really good. She likes to be snuggled, so we are working on her being able to sleep in the bassinet or crib. She always wakes up after a few minutes in there on her own. But I don't mind snuggling her...

Hair Cuts

My boys get the craziest hair when it gets a tiny bit too long. They do really good when Casey gets out the clippers to cut their hair. Kyson sits so still and Gavin does good, unless you are around his ears and then he laughs and wiggles because it tickles. I just had to post these pictures because Kyson was so cute sitting there with his arms folded.

Brotherly Love

I love how cute Gavin and Kyson are with Adalyn. They love her so much. Gavin tells me almost everyday that he is so glad he has a baby sister. Today she was fussing in her bouncer, and immediately both boys go running to her. Gavin starts talking to her and Kyson ran to get her binkie to give to her. She is so lucky to have such great big brothers!

Gavin will be the protective sweet older brother.


Kyson will be the fun, cool older brother

And this was put in just because it was cute. I love her hands...

Home

We came home on Sunday, and things have been going pretty smoothly around here. The boys are so good at playing with each other and Adalyn has been as good as a newborn can be.

Going home:


Gavin and Kyson have been so good at entertaining themselves. They play with their toys good, watch their shows and here they are painting.
Kyson told me this was a rainbow...
Gavin said this is a picture for my birthday someday.
Gavin loves to hold Adalyn. It has been really helpful too!
And here are some cute pictures of our little girl. I love dressing her up each day and choosing which bows to put in her hair.

Our Little Lady

Our little Adalyn Losee is here! She was born on January 27th at 5:20 pm. Labor and delivery went well and she is a good little sleeper and eater. We were VERY surprised to see her with so much dark hair. Both of my other two had very little blond hair. Gavin and Kyson were very excited to come and meet her. Gavin was a sweetie and sat next to me the whole time, Kyson saw her, thought she was great, but was more interested in running around. We are so excited to have her here and safe!

FINALLY!

We FINALLY got snow! The first thing the boys wanted to do this morning was put on their snowsuits and go play. They stayed out there for over an hour playing, and then went out later in the afternoon and spent another half hour out there. The snow is almost gone, but they had a great time while it lasted!



Gavin making a snow angel...that was the first thing he wanted to do when he got out thereKyson trying to make a snow angel too
Had to bring poor Emma out there to enjoy the snow
Here they are getting creative and putting snow in their wheelbarrow

Come back again snow!

Homework

Every morning I sit down and do homework with Gavin. Some days he doesn't mind, and some days he has a fit. Usually if Bear is involved, Gavin is more willing to do it. Here he is reading to Bear.

Baby!

Nope, no baby yet...but since it is Baby Month for us, we decided to get a Baby Grand!

I have had a great little piano for a few years now and it was perfect to get me started into teaching piano. But, a couple months ago, I had a couple of keys go out. They can be easily fixed, but we thought it was time to get something a little nicer since I spend almost everyday teaching on it. Casey did a lot of researching and everyday kept showing me more pianos online to look at (I think he wanted it more then I!) We found this one, tested it out, and I loved how it felt and sounded, so we got it! We have all enjoyed playing on it, including Casey!


Casey is going to hate that I put his picture in! He wants to learn a song, so here he is practicing the first little part.

2 more weeks!

We are almost to the end! Just a couple more weeks and our little lady will be here! I feel ready physically, and I'm almost ready in all other ways. Gavin is really excited and keeps saying "I can't wait for the baby to come!" and "Why is it taking so slow!" He has been a very patient brother, and hopefully the excitement will stay AFTER the baby gets here! Kyson just likes to play with the baby equipment. The other day he found the baby tub and got in it and started to fake snore, thinking it was a place to sleep. When I told him it was for the baby to take a bath in, he insisted on taking a bath in it, and got really sad when I said he couldn't.

Here I am near the end...puffy face and all!
