Wow, these past 10 weeks have been extraordinary. A crash course in parenthood - I guess it’s the only way to learn. We’re doing really well … Julianna is over 14 pounds now and healthy as can be. Breastfeeding has finally become comfortable and she’s actually starting to sleep for stretches longer than 3 hours! We’ve even ventured out of the house a handful of times! And yesterday my parents gave us a very nice Valentine’s Day gift - 2.5 hours of babysitting so we could enjoy dinner at a local Thai restaurant. It was the first time Andrew and I had been out without Julianna, and we were OK!

Here’s a little video of Julianna observing her mobile while on the changing table. We have to play with the mobile for a good 5 - 10 minutes before even attempting a diaper change since she seems to be potty trained to poop at just the moment we’re placing a new diaper under her. With a little delay, we might get lucky and whatever needs to come out will happen in those first few minutes.
