Little blessing

Taylor has been such a blessing in our home. I can't believe she is one month old! We love her more and more each day. Gavin is such a sweet big brother. He loves his sister and hasn't shown any signs of being jealous. He loves giving her hugs and kisses, maybe a little too much. He keeps me on top of things when her diaper needs to be changed or she is hungry. One morning I found a toy sitting right by her head ready for her to play with. It's funny because he likes to call her Honey and Sweetie. He calls her Honey more than Taylor. When I try to correct him he just says "no, I want to call her Honey." I wonder where he picks up on the different names?:) I don't think we are going to have to worry about the boys when she gets to be a teenager. I think Gavin is going to be one protective big brother.

I took these the first week she was home, with the help of my mom. I haven't posted them yet because I had some complications after the first week. It took me awhile to get back to normal but I am doing much better now. More to come!

I LOVE the picture of Gavin and Taylor together--that is the cutest picture. Is that a sling that she's hanging in? Hope all is well. The kids are sitting here looking at the photos with me and loving it.
