Two warm January days!

I spent the day with you Thursday & Friday. You are especially delightful after you wake up in the morning. You smile and play and seem to really enjoy yourself! One
morning you stayed in your bed happily “talking” to yourself until your bedroom filled up with enough natural light your camera (yes, we have a camera on you and watch you constantly; you have no privacy!) displayed you in full color
instead of the infrared camera picture in the dark. It was amazing to see such a reminder of how beautiful you are. Right now you have 2 favorite toys: pink bunny & multi-colored plastic chain (visible in picture!). The weather was
good both days and I enjoyed taking you out in your stroller. We went to CVS drugstore together; our first shopping expedition! I bought you a magazine summarizing what happened in 2011. Amazingly your birth wasn’t mentioned although it was the best thing that happened in 2011! On Friday afternoon you wouldn’t take a nap but it was obvious you were very tired. My solution was to hold you for 2 hours while you slept. Not a good long term “nap solution” but it was a joy to hold you close for so long. You aren’t going to be a small baby for very much longer. You are growing so quickly. Although you aren’t napping well right now, eventually I’m sure you will since you are very close to a perfect baby.
