On Tuesday, December 27, 2011, at 4:38pm we welcomed Aiyana Faith into our family. She was 6lbs. 14oz. and 19.5in. Most importantly, so far she seems completely healthy. She is already 8 days old...this past week has flown by and it seems as though she has always been a part of our family. I admit that I've practically been holding my breath since she was born in fear that something was wrong with her -- when Lynnea was born we had her at home with us for seven days before it became obvious that she was very, very sick, and the fear that we could be blindsided like that again is still something that lingers on. But, like I said, so far Aiyana seems to be completely healthy; the only issue we've run into is that she seems to be lactose intolerant, so we've decided to bottle-feed this time around.
Ashlyn was very excited when she heard the news that her little sister had arrived, and has been an amazing big sister. She loves to help out in any way that she can (throwing away diapers, getting blankets, picking out clothing, feeding, and burping...). She also enjoys taking lots and lots of pictures of her new baby sister with the camera that she got for Christmas.
