Kylee's second and third week


We are settling in to life with a newborn. It is definitely life-changing and sleep deprived! We are loving every minute with Kylee! Now that the visitors have finally settled, we are getting ready to enter the holidays!


We had our first scare this week when we were heading to Costco to buy some formula and diapers. On the way there, Kylee let out a loud screeching cry that stopped instantly. It was not a sound we had heard before so Chris and I both looked at each other puzzled. I said to him that it sounded like she spit up, so Chris turned around to check on her. Kylee had spit up, but it was coming out of her nose and her mouth. She couldn't breathe and was beginning to turn blue! Chris immediately jumped into the back seat while I was driving and trying to find somewhere to pull over. Chris yanked Kylee out of her car seat as fast as he could and flipped her upside down, suctioned her nose and mouth and finally she began to gasp for air! Luckily, she was okay! It was the scariest thing I had ever experienced! We couldn't believe that our daughter was choking on her own spit up! It was certainly a moment we will never forget. I am so grateful that Chris was not driving and was able to react so quickly!
This week we also spent some time taking tons of pictures of Kylee for Christmas cards! We spent over an hour stuffing her a stocking, changing her clothes, putting bows in her hair, etc to get the perfect pictures! It was fun but wore her out.....She fell asleep in the middle of picture taking!
