We're so thankful to be beginning the year with two healthy, hearty daughters, no ailments for us this year so far, a home, a job and great friends and family. The holidays have been fun, and totally crazy. We're so thankful that Eloise joined us a month ago. She's still thriving and changing and growing everyday. We are, too. Dalia and Mama are learning new ways to be together and Dalia is easily accepting her loving Daddy's attention. Eloise is quite agreeable and very mellow. She often falls asleep just by holding Mama's hand and loves to snuggle and gaze at her Daddy. We've tried a bottle a couple times now and she's taken it like a champ. We've also been out with her to dinner a couple of times and she pretty much just sleeps. While Mommy is getting used to not sleeping much (Dalia's nap has effectively dissapeared with the arrival of Eloise), we are all doing really well. Happiness reigns. We've really enjoyed having Daddy home for the most part this past month and are all blessedly grateful for a sleepy, mellow baby (albeit very noisy grunter) to keep our routine from being completely upset. We are all totally in love with our new little girl. Dalia can't wait to come in and see her in the morning and Eloise seems quite pleased with her sister's attention.
It's been way too long since I last posted. I don't even know where to start. I guess I'll just do a sampling from the last month.
