1 week old today!

This is Alfred the British Bunny. Rob picked him up for Anna on his last trip to England. He'll be our very professional measuring stick each month as we catalogue Anna's growth - starting at week 1.


Some other things I'm learning about parent hood is that the days vs. nights thing is very real...and very frustrating if you don't have a sense of humor about it. '
Anna at 1pm....

Anna at 1am...

I guess if nothing else, we can thank the Marines for the headphones Rob wore on the range and their many uses in the home. *I know she looks like she's flipping you off... around 1am I believed it. :-)

LOVE the pictures! I'm so sorry to hear that Anna has her days and nights mixed up. Ben was like that at first....hence the reason I was able to post so much in the beginning =0) What else could I do at 4 AM with a baby in my arms??

Wow, it's been a week already! She is a doll and I love the bunny! Everything gets better every day/week/month...

not sure if anyone has recommended this book (baby wise), but i highly do as lily was sleeping through the night by 3 months (at 2 months she was sleeping 11 p.m. - 7 a.m.)! she now sleeps 8 p.m. - 7 a.m.!! i really believe it works and have heard many success stories... but it's not for everyone!

well, apparently when you put chuck's and my genes together you come out with his mouth and chin and my nose... cuz it's happened twice so far! but he's almost identical to chuck's baby pictures, if you mixed up his and rachel's newborn pictures i seriously wouldn't know who was who!

what about anna? how is her feeding going? how are you recovering? i want stories :)

Just a recommendation, I would not get the book Babywise, it is not a good book. Most Pedicatricians and most "good" baby info books like Baby 411 as well as La Leche League do not endorse it due to the methods it employs.
