Other than the usual sleep, eat, poop, repeat, there’s really nothing new to report here. We’ve been taking it day by day (mostly hour by hour, actually), but we’re all doing well. Of course, this morning I tried to dress Chris in a newborn onesie, so who knows, maybe we’re not doing as well as I thought.
We’ve had lots of family and friends in and out over the past couple of weeks, which has been awesome and made doubly so because everyone’s brought us so much food. And, no matter how much we eat, it seems we still can’t make a dent in the fridge. (No complaints here!)
We’re trying to do as much as we can outside the house while (mostly) all LG does is sleep. I know we have a limited window of time before she turns into a terror, so we’ve been taking advantage of this time.
To that end (and because I strongly believe in introducing my offspring to booze as soon as possible — it’ll help her fit in with the family right from the start, I think) we’ve been to Napa twice so far.
Don’t let the smile fool you. Bringing a baby out in public immediately makes momma need a Xanax.
Other than that, it’s just been a lot of baby gazing up in here…
She’s quasi-evil, she’s the margarine of evil, the Diet Coke of evil
They say you’re not supposed to bathe a baby right away, but what are you supposed to do when she SHITS IN HER EAR?
Don’t let that smile fool you — she’s just taking a dump
Dumping or not, she still manages to do absolutely adorable things like this:
Are you still alive or did she kill you with the cute?
Hey look! It’s NOT a baby picture! I do do other things! Like plant my second garden, which should have been done, oh, three weeks ago:
Back garden has corn, peppers, tomatoes (thanks Elizabeth for the starters!), fennel, peas, marigolds, mint, basil, and rosemary. Front garden has sunflowers, cucumbers, zucchini, yellow squash, and strawberries.
What have you fine people been up to while I’ve been in this baby haze?
Well, I’m dead now. Hope you’re HAPPY !! The photo with her fingers around her dad’s hand is sniffle worthy. Truly.
She’s pretty cute and so are the BOTH of you! Looking beautiful and handsome respectively…
BTW – where’s Boppa and Unca Drew? Didn’t want to be outted on the blog? Would love to see the pictures of joy on their faces!
Oh my, she is SO cute! And the photo of her grabbing his thumb? I DIE.
Never too young to enjoy Napa, I say.
Such CUTENESS! She’s so sweet wrapped up in the towel.
HOW DID YOUR KID SHIT IN HER EAR?
I want to go to Napa. SIGH.
Also, I’m excited to hear how your strawberries turn out.
Oh, she is just so adorable. Baby deliciousness (if that’s a word). Congrats!
oh what a baby you get to gaze at! She is just so darling!
She is just too precious, Sarah. I’m so happy for you and your husband! I’ve been out of the blog scene for a while, but I always get excited when a new baby photo of your little girl comes up in my Flickr feed. Heehee. I’m glad that all is well and that you’re settling into motherhood!
PS: I’m super jealous of anyone who has a yard. And a garden. Amen.
