Leah has been staying awake for longer periods at a time now, so I had to catch her in the moment. I have been putting her in a bouncer chair during the day so I can get ready or do the dishes and she seems to like it. Her eyes still look dark blue, so we're not sure if they are going to take after her mom's or her dad's eyes.
This was right after we gave Leah her first bath. She didn't cry at all, but it was a 20-minute operation that took the both of us to keep her happy and clean her up. She smelled so fresh when we wrapped her in a towel and put lotion all over her.
Here's Daddy-daughter snuggle time when Logan gets home from school and holds Leah for a while. This a good time for me to clean up around the house or do the dishes. They are so cute together!
It's tiring to be this cute. Sometimes you just have to spread out like you own the place.
... she says with a wink. Leah is already choosing her wardrobe to reflect her individuality. Papa Wallace found this onesie at the Evanston Hospital gift shop and she just had to model it for him. This next outfit was motivated by one of her favorite hobbies -- sleeping -- and was given to us by our favorite friends from Parowan, Utah, Cody and Toni Kirkham .
No, she does not have a television in her room and she doesn't know how to use the clicker. But she certainly knows how to lounge around. I suggested to her that she buy a onesie that said "Lunchtime," which is perpetually the case, but of course she didn't think her old Dad's idea was any good. "Christmas," I said with a wink.
Here's our little angel almost a week after being born. She has filled out a little more and is starting to open her eyes, although she spends the majority of her time sleeping. She prefers to take long naps in the late afternoon which means Hillary is getting up every few hours at night to feed her and change her diapers. Hopefully we will get this schedule reversed so her parents can get some sleep. But mostly we 
are enjoying her sweet personality and watching her make funny faces right after she's fed. We are both lucky parents to have such a beautiful, healthy little girl.
Wouldn't you know, my daughter already knows how to pray. So far all she does is eat, sleep and poop (repeat). We were prepared for lots of screaming and fussing but she hardly makes a sound. Toinght she gave about two screams and squirmed a bit when she was hungry, and that's the extent of her crying. She's had a number of dirty diapers so we think the nursing must be going well. It's a trip being a parent. More pictures on our photo site.
This is the first time she (kind of) opened her eyes. She's been sound asleep since then.
This is the beautiful woman who did all the work, holding the fruits of her labor.
This is the only picture with me in it. The blurriness accurately depicts how I perceived the whole event.
