Laila Lou

Lucas and I had the opportunity to babysit Laila while Ravyn and Sufyan went for a mama-son bike ride last week. She's now 10 weeks old and as cute as can be. When she approaches the apex of yumminess at 5 or 6 months her parents better watch out because I'm going to eat those fat little legs! :)
Laila has reflux and therefore frequent bouts of bloody-murder scream-crying that amazingly doesn't diminish her cuddly-cuteness. We were bouncing around by the stove exhaust fan (because it's really loud and womb-sounding) while I sang to her and the lyrics that came out were all about Laila Lou, which isn't her middle name (she doesn't have one) but it's just so fitting for her girly adorable self. I may have heard Ravyn call her this before but there's just a nice ring to it. Luckily, the stove trick worked and we had a happy baby in just 10 minutes. Lucas was very interested in playing with Laila and I loved watching him try to incorporate her into his play.
