Settling into a routine...

As some of you know, I come from a family of five boys. Growing up, I always knew that my dad wanted a daughter, but I don't know if I ever really understood why.

She definitely isn't a newborn anymore, having already graduated to size 1 diapers, 0-3/3 month clothes and staying awake for hours at a time. Based on all the picture of her sleeping, I know you may not believe this, but Syra is one alert baby. Unfortunately, she's dealing with a rather bad case of bab...
