Baby A, 7 Weeks Old!

Things are going pretty well here at the Sluys house. We are (slowly) making progress unpacking the boxes at our new house and getting things situated the way we want. Baby is doing great too- she is super sweet, eats well, sleeps well, and occasionally treats us to a smile that just melts me :-) She is a keeper! So far no jealousy issues, Aili is in love with her and with being a sister, and is constantly trying to smother her with affection (kind of annoying, but better than the alternative). We've mostly been laying low the last seven weeks, just nursing, taking Aili to do various activities like her dance/cheer classes (sooo cute!) which she LOVES, and planning for the holidays- we're going to be having multiple turkey day dinners, which does not bode well for my goal of losing 20 pounds, but should be delish. I am hosting one of them and I'm looking forward to it, despite the juggling sure to be involved in taking care of the little ones while making a ton of dishes :-) And in December we will be jetting off to California for a few weeks- so excited! Haven't been there for a few months! Much more to come soon.
