Our NEWEST and BIGGEST adventure!

I still can't believe all of this. What an incredible thing it is to bring a life into this world!? Little Laila joined our family February 6th, at 4:14 in the morning after a long and fairly difficult delivery. The doctor was convinced we were going to have to resort to a C-section, I am glad between Laila and I that we were able to prove her wrong! She weighed in at 7 pounds 9 ounces, 20 and 1/4 inches long.

It has now been over a month and I look back in awe at that experience. Painful? yes. Scary? yes ... it was an entirely new experience. Amazing? YES!

Now, approaching six weeks later, living a life filled with feeding, sleeping, screaming, crying, screaming, pooping, screaming, we are learning and growing together. One thing is for sure, Laila has a great set of lungs - hence the repetitive screaming! And a lot of grunting! As grandpa Garner brought up, that's a good sign of a good singer - I would love if she inherits the Garner singing gene! Fingerscrossed!  We've started to smile for things other than passing gas and have an every growing interest in this new world. Everyday I look at Laila and just have to marvel at what an incredible gift she is and what a crazy adventure we have ahead of us!
