Big Sister kicks back to watch the big game, or perhaps an episode of Bear.

That's what new babies do best.

What's wrong with these people, sticking lenses in my face instead of B-O-T-T-L-E-S!

After 8 days, Quinn appeared quite fond of the crying infants, being attached to three monitors, and alarms going off that she wasn't quite ready to go. She got over it in just a few seconds.

Maybe not yet ... but I am sure it'll be true soon.

Chloe absolutely fell in love with her sister. She squealed BA-BY when she first laid her eyes on her, and hasn't ceased saying it since. The number of times she's said BA-BY now exceeds MA-MA and DA-DA combined ... we've been replaced.  On the same note, Chloe cannot stop giving Quinn hugs and kisses ... it could not be more CU-TE.

She seemed to have aged two years since we got back from the hospital ... she is sooooo big.

...but easily remedied.

Fortunately, she's gained much more than that ... up to 5 lbs 7.5 oz in less than two weeks after dropping to 4 lbs 4oz at the hospital.

Chloe, STOP GROWING!

A gene someone did NOT need from her mother!

Will Quinn say Ali the same way?

How can being a dad get any better that this?

Head down and butt high up in the sky ... not sure which parent this gene came from, but both children have it.

 

A chip off the old block, she loves pesto too!

 

Three generations of the Downing lineage.

Quinn has managed to teach mama the art of napping.  Somehow mama, who formerly cannot take naps, has out napped dada.
