4 weeks!



1 month stats:

Weight: 10 pounds, 5 oz.  (75th-90th %)
Height:  22.5 inches (90th %)
Head Circumference: 39 cm (90th %)

Weight gain in 4 weeks: 2 pounds, 5.5 oz.

Brian calculates that at this rate, at age 5, Robin will weigh 42 million pounds.  By age 10, 219 trillion pounds.  We probably need a bigger car seat.

Robin is tracking our gaze.  She graced us this week with a honest-to-goodness smile.  At her sister, of course.  She has a small dimple on her right cheek.

California Living

BBQ pollo asada tacos. With mango salsa. Eaten on our patio furniture. On our deck. Without wearing sweaters.  In March.

(Note: this was not the taco we ate. Ours was better.)

3 weeks!

OK, it's really 3 weeks, 1 day here.  The sleep-deprived warp zone called New Mommyhood somehow meant Wed got lost in a strange time warp.



Here's what's new: Robin has perfected her focused gaze.  She's got Quiet Alert down, but not for very long.  She sometimes lets Mommy sleep for 3 hours at a time.  Her eyes are still blue, but dark.  We wonder if they will change to brown.


In Erin news, the fine art of body decoration is in full swing.
