We have been busy adjusting to the new addition. Jules loves to hold Libby and Libby is usually pretty good when Jules is holding her. Jules loves to take her binki out of her mouth and put it back in. It's great fun. This was while we were still in the hospital.
This is last Sunday after church. It's funny because the first couple of days Jules forgot all about Libby in the mornings. She would wake up and after a while say, "Oh ya, baby".
One of Libby's favorite things to do is cover her eyes.
This is her one week old picture. Isn't she an angel?
Daddy, Jules and Libby
This is Jules during another one of her naps. Who can sleep like that? She was completely out and didn't wake up or budge while I took the picture.
Grandpa loves Libby too. I went over there the other day and pulled Libby out of her car seat and he was really surprised because he had forgotten that I had a baby. He was just so excited to see Jules.
Libby's first real bath. She actually loved it and didn't cry once.
Our failed attempt at taking a quick family picture. Libby was screaming and Jules was so serious...What do you do?
Libby covering her eyes again.
This is Libby today. She also loves to eat her hand. She started this right after she was born and I had to call the nurse in to give me a binki because you can take binki's away but you can't take fingers away. I do not want a finger/thumb sucker.
Jules has been pretty needy and not quite as good of a big sister as we had hoped. She loves Libby but needs lots of attention. Too many new things all at once and she just hasn't known what to do about it all.
Libby has been an angel baby. She only wakes up at 3 am and then again at 7 am for feedings. It is very different having 2 kids but we are doing pretty good. Brett got 5 days of paternity leave so he was home most of last week which was really helpful. I have recovered really quickly and feel great. I didn't get any stitches again so I really haven't been sore at all...except the "twins". Gotta love adjusting to breast feeding. We love our little Libby and couldn't be more blessed.

it's so fun to see all these pics! she's beautiful. stacey, you seriously look great!!!!!
She is soooo cute! I love her cute tiny little Sunday dress! :) And you look great! I'm jealous of how good she is sleeping!!! You should see the bags that contain my eyes, lol. Tagg has been waking up about every two hours CONSTANTLY. I am a freakin' zombie.
It's such a big adjustment for the older kids, isn't it? Boston still has his "off" days, but I can tell it is getting better with time. :)
And yeah, breastfeeding is such a pain. :p But worth it I suppose. There's nothing like waking up in a puddle of your own milk.
I laughed outloud at the picture of Jules sleeping while half standing. Then Brandon had to see what I was laughing at. Then he laughed too. :) Btw, I told Brandon the other day that you are a chef and now he wants to get together with you for dinner and have you show him how to cook. So...looks like we need to plan something.
She's precious!
ohhhhhh! Your girls are so sweet! Keep up the good work!
love the pics! man, i was hoping breast feeding the 2nd time around wouldn't be so painful! ah well...good luck!
she is so precious!! I cannot wait to meet her
I didnt realize you had your baby the day before me! Oh- it's so fun! My C-section was easy peasy this time and everything has gone super good. Except for learning how to jugle 4 kids!!!
