Keeping up with the Hatches

Well, we're all adjusting here at the Hatch household (some of us better than others). Luckily, we've had quite a bit of help. Several wonderful women in our ward have brought dinner over and my friends were very helpful in watching Layla while we were in the hospital. The biggest help arrived late Thursday night when my mom and sister got into town. They spent the weekend cooking, shopping, cleaning, visiting, playing with Layla, and oohing and aahing over little Weston. We were sad to see them go, but we don't have to wait long before we see them again, as my family is coming down for Thanksgiving.




Layla really loved having someone here to play with her whenever she wanted, as she has been feeling attention-starved since Weston came home. She told her friend Bailey that she doesn't liker her baby brother, but we're confident she'll come around. Right now she is going through a rough, contrarian stage where she promptly yells or fake-cries when I make any sort of request of her. I am trying hard to withhold negative attention, because I know that is what she is looking for, but I'm finding it nigh impossible. I thought the baby was going to be the challenge, but he's a cake walk compared to our little princess. I'm sure things will smooth with time.
