4th of July

Kyla made her first visit to PA to Grandma & PopPop's house. We relaxed and took a trip to Uncle Andy's and Amy's house for dinner. On Monday we took at trip to Grandma's work so she could show Kyla off to her work friends. Everyone thought she was so cute and we even had her hands and feet printed.

Kyla took her first trip to the Beach House over the 4th of July weekend. We didn't make it to the beach but she went out to Fins (our favorite restaurant) and to a holiday party. She was 1 month over the weekend as well. She seemed to enjoy herself but was a bit fussy by the end of the weekend. The doctor said she was probably just having a bit of fussiness which babies do around 1 month. We can't wait until she gets a little bigger so we can take her to the beach and play in the sand and surf.

Great Grandma Cohn visited MD the following week and hung out with Kyla and Mommy and helped us out. She was a big help and enjoyed taking care of her first great grandchild. She can't get over how expressive she is and loves holding her. We can't wait to hang out with the whole family in August!

Kyla's Doctor's Visit

Kyla had her 1 month check up last night and she now weighs 10 lbs 0 ozs! She had to get 1 shot and have a heel prick done for a blood test...which she did not like. Otherwise the doctor said she looks very healthy.

She also grew to 21 1/8 inches and the doctor and nurse said she is very strong.

She has been sleeping well through the night...for about 5-6 hours, which mom is very happy about. She is able to hold her head up for about 30-60 seconds and is looking around the room more. She has started noticing mom and dad and following our voices.

Each day she is doing something new and it has been very exciting to experience her new life.

Kyla Madison Arrives!!

Well Kyla has finally arrived and we are tickled pink! She will be 4 weeks old this Friday and already there have been so many changes! She is more alert and I think she is actually looking at US and not just out the window. :o) She has been eating and sleeping fairly well and is overall a very content baby. Both Grandma's have been to visit often and are loving spending time with their first grandchild. Thank you for all their help during the first couple weeks...it was much appreciated!

Everyone who has sent us gifts and cards has been so generous and we couldn't have been more blessed with great family and friends. THANK YOU!!

Lennon and I have been adjusting and overall can't complain too much. We are excited for what is ahead and are enjoying every moment with Kyla. The pups are realizing that she isn't going anywhere and are adjusting as well. They like to give her kisses and see what she is doing. We hope they adjust this well when Kyla is moving around more and pulling their hair!

We are heading to the beach for the beginning of the 4th of July weekend and then Lennon is heading to Virgina to go fishing...we are hoping he comes home with a BIG tuna!! I will be heading with Kyla up to PA to spend some time with Grandma, Pop-Pop and Uncle Andy. Kyla will be traveling for her first time to three different states...she is already becoming a world traveler!

Hope everyone has a good 4th!
