It's so amazing to watch a newborn grow. I am amazed at how much Kalina has already grown and the changes in her awareness. She has been very observant since she was born- when she lays on our chest (while we are sitting) she just pops her head back and looks around at everything- but it's amazing to see how much she is awake now and just interested in seeing everything. She is definitely a girl who enjoys to be around us at all times- at least in the same room, and definitely does NOT enjoy a dirty diaper! Whenever she gets a bit fussy, it's usually a dirty diaper and as soon as it's changed, she is much better! She absolutely loves her big sister, as her big sister loves her... if she is upset, Tatum just comes up, asks what's wrong, and gives her kisses... When Kalina gets the kisses, she stops fussing/crying. It's just the beginning of the best friendship in the world- sisters.
Tatum has been quite the little helper (laundry) and has started to mirror what mom does...
There is a picture of me doing the same thing when I was little and my mom would be feeding Doug & Liz... lol... Tatum had told me her baby doll was crying, so I told her, well maybe she's hungry... so she set up shop- got a pillow and sat on her couch- and started nursing her baby! :)
Unfortunately, we have realized that Tatum is allergic to our boys- Jackson & Hunter. She has been breaking out in hives after climbing on them. After talking to the pediatrician- asked about it leading to breathing problems/asthma- we made the extremely difficult decision of finding them a new home. This decision did not come without a lot of tears (by me), but it is the right decision for our daughter. We found them a great home with an active family in Golden.
Love and Miss you boys!!!
