My sister and her husband brought into this world a super cute, wee little thing-- Lyla Jean! She was 5 1/2 weeks early, and definitely surprised all of us! Despite her unexpected arrival, she was a healthy baby who just needed some help figuring out the whole eating thing without immediately falling asleep every time. I made my way out to Denver to visit as soon as she was able to go home and she did a very good job of making me fall in love with her. She lives with two dogs and a cat and they were all smitten with her right away, especially Claira the cockapoo. Anytime Lyla made a noise, Claira felt the need to go give her a kiss.
Needless to say, I can't wait to see this special little girl again (and again, and again) and wish I lived closer so I could see her and cuddle her everyday.
