I don't mind, either!
Aww Lyra is so cute, she always seems to be smiling!

We're having lots of fun with her, she's just a joy. Sleeps wonderfully, makes adorable noises, and loves to interact (when she's awake which is rare!! LOL). She's like super-baby, day 2 she rolled onto her side, and day 5 she rolled onto her belly (she was angry at the time LOL). She's only rolled onto her belly once since but continues to roll onto her side any time she's placed on her back. She has amazing neck strength as well. Such a strong healthy baby, I'm so happy with her.
Oh Jordan i am just seeing this now congratulations :D. Welcome to the world little Tyler. She is beautiful Jordan.
Tyler is so cute! It's amazing how strong healthy babies are at such young ages! I know I was shocked when Clara would do things that I thought were only supposed to be happening later! Babies are amazing! Bathtime is cute!
Tyler is so precious!
Tyler is really cute! I like all her animal hats. And I can't believe you went camping already!! Did Tyler have fun? :)
I'm thinking about selling some baby items that Lyra no longer uses. (She's only 8 months old and there is already a lot!) I'm not sure if we will ever have another child or not, and it seems a little silly to keep stuff that will take up a bunch of room for something we may never need again. I will keep a few items for keepsakes and a few things that are harder to replace just in case...but otherwise, it's going! I'm hoping to make enough money to pay for the new carseat I just bought Lyra... :)
How long do you plan / did you hang on to your babies' things?

We kept a lot of Mary Joyce's things for Katherine, and kept those things of Katherine's that were gender-neutral for Malcom. We are done having kids at this point, and we're planning a yard sale after the first of the year, so we will probably get rid of everything he has outgrown by then at that time.
Oh, Lord. I am in the process of selling some of J's stuff now. Not really the baby stuff, I have a friend that gets the outgrown clothes 2 times a year. I have some stuff on craigslist, and have sold 2 items.
Get rid of it before it takes over your house! LOLOL.
Thanks everyone for the nice comments. :)
She slept pretty much the whole time! lol. I take her everywhere, we go to the dog park, the mall, and we even took her to Boston Pizza the other night for dinner. She's such a good baby. :)Quote:

I listed things on craigslist but there are so many new ads that they get pushed down really fast. I might have to hold a garage sale next weekend.
Just thought I'd share this cute picture of Tyler. :) She was 12 days old here.

Tyler looks very cute and cozy in that picture. :)
I had a question about bedtime. Lyra has started taking only 2 naps a day (for about 30-45 min each), and as a result she wants to go to bed earlier. She has been getting to sleep around 6:30-6:45 and sleeping till 5 or 6 in the morning. Since 5 am is a bit early for me (I typically go to bed around 10:00), I'd like her to stay up a bit later in the hopes she will sleep a little later. Also, in November we go back to standard time which means it'll be like her going to bed at 5:30!
Any suggestions on how to change her bedtime? Should I try to get her to nap later in the afternoon? I don't want to keep her up when she's tired too long, or she gets really super cranky then weirdly hyper...
Thanks in advance! :)
