hey everyone, i know it has been a while but things got busy as you could expect. everything is going well. lyala and zoe are in good health. we changed our mind about the spelling of jacklynn, it will be jaqualin. if i change the blog address because of this i will put a link here. she doesnt sleep as much as she used to, so there are some long nights, which is to be expected. well on to the pics. here are some pics of her taking a bath. enjoy!

this book is boring
she is a pretty good swimmer already.

week two: zoe is doing really well. not much really to say, but there is so much to say also. i can talk about her all day. she is awesome, beautiful, has a great voice, etc.. we are taking her on 2 hour walks now. she really likes the outside and the carriage ride it puts her right to sleep. meeshka also likes the long walks. check back later i am going to post some baby pics of lyala, ashley, and me. we can do some comparisons. enough blah, blah. here are some pics.

its been one week. the nights arent too bad yet, and she still sleeps most of the time, but everyday she is awake a little more. she seems like a really happy baby and doesnt cry too much. her skin is turning more pink and her eyes are becoming brighter blue. she even smiles some, i dont know if it is a real smile, but it looks like one to me. i will try to catch it sometime on film(well digital film).
since she is awake more, that means more play time. i have introduced her to her first toy. which she really likes and it does wonders to calm her down when she gets into a hissy.
