Space available...

...for Mighty Math Awards, anyway.

Busy lap

The baby's napping, so the cat decided to get in on the action while the getting was good. So here I am...until there's a reason to get up!

Napping on the sofa

Katie and I fell asleep on the sofa. Sadly a call woke me up, but she slept right through it. With some deft maneuvering, I managed to move her off me so I could move. How cute - the blanket matches her outfit.

Bundled nap

It's an icky day out today. Katie's been bundled up most of the day.

Lashes

My sole genetic contribution.

Lap seat

Play pad

Playing with Ben Hur, the space monkey.

Cupcake face

Good morning

Just ate and had a good burp. Baby acne clearing up, too.

Hi-ya!

She packs a mean punch...even if she can't hold her head up yet.

Smiling

Because she just popped into a freshly changed diaper and she thinks it's funny.

Pacifier

This should make things easier.

Leg baby

Cubicle

Drew moved into a cubicle of a co-worker of mine that just retired. He's the new nintendo expert of the office.

Exhausted!

Katie  had her 1 month checkup today. Still on the small side at 7 pounds 3.4 ounces. I had a hard time believing that given how often and enthusiastically she feeds. Anyhow, the forward movement was enough to appease the doctor, so we're good.

Afterwards, we did some shopping. We are now on brand #4 of pacifiers. And checked out the new quilt shop, which appears to be owned by women who worked at the shop that closed in December. And then picked up drive through lunch. (I keep hoping for a drive through Vietnamese place.) And wrapped things up by dropping off some medical paperwork for Drew at his school.

By the end, Katie was so done being in her car seat. The heat didn't help. I changed her into more comfy breathable clothes when we got home and fed her. She then promptly passed out. Ah to be four weeks old.

Bundled up

It's been a long day

A nap on mom's jeans on the sofa.

Boppy

And drew came in for the photo bomb.

Shhhh...

...he's hunting wabbits.

Smile!

I want my mom!

A common reaction to me.

Chillin on my legs

Kind of a big day, visitors and a trip to the park. She's now falling asleep on me.

J. J., Anand, Katie, and me

Hanging out on my lap

Bakugan jammers

After 2 years of these sagging off his frame, they finally fit.

Baby at the table

The perfect dive

Drew is learning to dive. Rita put a kickboard in front of his feet so he had to jump into the dive. Note the perfect form and clean entry into the water.

Party boy

Stolen from our friend's blog, I liked the picture. Drew is partying it up at Kyla's party.

Pooped after her debut

We went to a birthday party. Katie was a champ. She nursed at the beginning and towards the end. Slept for a solid two hours in the moby wrap and then tolerated being passed around a little. And then had a mini meltdown. Time for a nap.

After morning breakfast

Napinating

Full belly

She's happy to let me hold her after a meal.

Just chillin, ready to sleep.

Yawn

Breakfast of New Mom

As interpreted and delivered by Rich.

Demon cat

You will obey the demon cat.

Sleepy

Always sleepy after eating.

A little yellow

She was actually enjoying having me hold her once she was full.  She's still getting over jaundice, you can see the color.
