Big sister

Emily stayed with my sister while I was in the hospital. After I had Kalia, Christine brought Emily to see her new sister. Let me tell you... Emily was freaked out. She didn't understand why the baby was out! She didn't want anything to do with her. I would ask her if she wanted to hold her and she would give me a face of discust and say NO!! I would ask if she loved her sister and she would do the same!!


But as you now can see, that has all changed and she loves her sister!!! She always wants to hold her and give her binki to her. Most of all she loves to help me give her a bath. She is such a good helper.


Kalia had really bad jaundice, so she had to be in a billy bed for the first week that she was home. It really sucked, cause all i wanted to do was hold her, but i could only take her out to feed her and bathe her, then she had to go right back in. I slept out on the couch so that i could keep an eye on her... poor thing. She hated it and I don't blame her. What new born wants to be sprawled out with no blanket or clothes?
I had to take her to the hospital every day and they would prick her foot and draw blood. She would scream and scream.... i hated it!




Here she is....


Here is Kalia. She was born on October 1st at 9:00 pm. She weighed 9lbs 5 oz. Doesn't she look funny here? She has the chunky cheeks!!
