Lila (8 month catch up)

Time to catch up on Lila and the past 8 months of her life...Lila has been such a perfect third and final baby for our family. Many of you have followed her story and know the pain and losses (6 known miscarriages) we went through before conceiving sweet Lila. At the time little did we know that God had this amazing and wonderful child in mind for our family...She is SO funny, reactive, beautiful and amazing in every way. I'm sure some people don't understand why she is so special to our family because they don't know the background. I certainly don't favor her over my other girls. I love different things about each one of them (of course). She was just the child that completed our family...that we prayed for YEARS and went through a lot of heartache before she came along. Sometimes I think God allows these things to happen so that we will appreciate them EVEN MORE once we receive that blessing... She is SO loved and adored by her big sisters. As a matter of fact, she had her first stomach bug last week and it KILLED Mia and Averi that they couldn't love on and kiss on her for a couple days. I love how they love each other...

Anyways, she has been a super easy baby. Very happy and always going with the flow. She misses naps for soccer games or has late bedtimes because of the girls activities and handles it like a champ without fussing or complaining. She is SO very social and outgoing. She just wants to be with people. As long as someone is in the room or around her, then she's happy.
