The Little Darlin'

Here's the baby doll with her furry Daddy. He didn't like this picture but I have one of all of the kids with him just like this and I love them - whether he's shaven or not. I'm so glad that their Daddy doesn't mind loving on them when they are this little (although he'll admit they get more fun with time).
She also gets plenty of love and attention from her siblings. Brigham is always asking if he can "hoder" (hold her) and the other three are very patient and willing to take her off my hands when my hands have other things they need to do.
Here is the little smile that makes the sun rise in our house these days.
She's very fashionable thanks to her Aunt Darla - who supplied all the gear to make jewelry for the little diva. Can we say spoiled???

My baby baby is one month old (ok, now she's more like 2 months old, but I can't think about that). Goodness how her life has flown by. She is such a sweet thing, constantly smiling and making those gooing baby noises that melt Mommy's into puddles. She did get a little spoiled at Grandma's house (lots more hands to hold her there) and has had to ease into a routine here at our new home, but she is doing so gradually and has finally started giving the Mommy more much-needed sleep. It's amazing what a schedule can do and I am a believer. She has started loosing the few longer hairs she had and has already had a fresh crop of fuzz grow in. She looks so much like Ayvri did that it's amazing, but is definitely pudging up more like Ksenya - she has very very round little kissing chops and a fantastic double chin that makes me smile. She has bright alert eyes that are still blue for the time being and her skin has had it's first bout of baby pimples and is still beautiful as ever. Yay for babies!!!
