lucia brielle ayars

She has arrived!  7lbs 4oz and 21in long, ms Lucia Brielle Ayars!  It was a long 4 days in the hospital.  It's always hard when you have nurses and doctors trying to tell you what you should do with your baby, but we have been home since Thursday and wow, SO much better.  I am working on getting this lil one on a schedule and so far so good.  She gets her last feeding around 11pm and has been waking up only once, at 4am for a feeding then going right back to sleep until 8am.  Hopefully this will last : )

Lucia is a quiet content baby that only fusses when she wants food or if she needs a diaper change.  She loves her big brother, smiling when she hears him and daddy, and is just so precious.  I was worried about how life would be with another kid, not being able to focus all my attention on my boy and him having to "share" me.  Nico has really surprised me.  He loves this little girl more than you would think.  He can't stand to hear her cry and gets sad if she does.  he is very prtective if someone tries to pick her up saying, " NO, she's comfortable."  He is sure to tell EVERYONE not to touch her head because it's soft and to not touch her belly button.  He is extremely helpful getting mommy diapers, wipes, and anything he thinks she may need.  He has grown so much.  I love him so much and Lucia is one lucky girl!
