Lyla

I can happily report that Lyla Marie Howick joined our family a few weeks ago. I could spend a lot of time talking about how excited we are about our new daughter, how sweet and wonderful she is, how fun it is to just sit and stare at her, how I can't get enough of all the little changes she undergoes every day, etc. etc. etc., but, let's be honest, everyone knows that we love our kid, so, instead I will make an important update to this blog post: my fast food cravings (which I 100% blame on Brandon's genes invading my body) are officially gone. I no longer feel that eating a Wendy's Junior Bacon Cheeseburger equals pure happiness. Brandon is super disappointed. But, he's pretty excited about Lyla, so I think he will survive.
