Let The Smothering Begin

Jaron and Jantzen just love Jaedyn to pieces. Ever since we brought her home from the hospital they have constantly been by her side. They always want to hold her, burp her, play with her, tickle her (Jantzen), hold her hands, and try to make her laugh. We have to remind them that it will take her a few months before she can start interacting with them, but that doesn't stop them from trying...it's cute to watch them try.

When Jaedyn was born the whites of her eyes were slightly yellow so we were told to have her in her diaper in indirect sunlight. Every time we would do that the boys were right there to entertain her so she wouldn't be bored, as they called it. It's fun to watch Jantzen pull faces to try to make her laugh while Jaron is the one who holds her hand to comfort her. He gets so excited every time she does that. She is starting to recognize their faces and voices and she will turn to look at them when they talk.

Just this morning before church Jaedyn spit up all over Jaron's shorts and he didn't freak out, I thought he would have. I'm glad the boys love her so much, but we'll see how long the smitten phase lasts. In the meantime, Jaedyn, enjoy all this attention.

Those boys are so cute with their baby sister! Tyler is the same way ;-) We had to do the indirect sunlight thing too. What a pain :-)

Trust me...the smothering doesn't stop. I have to constantly tell Laney and Gavin to give Canon some space.
