Fun Time

Talia is starting to get into a pattern of being awake and alert three separate times each day for 1 to 2 hours. One of those times is about 6:00 AM, so "sunrise fun time" is becoming a new tradition. This usually involves some reading, some playing, and some quiet time that she spends sitting on her changing table and looking out of the window (she's VERY interested in gazing out of the window). The pictures attached below are from yesterday morning.





Another one of her awake "fun" times is around noon. We captured some good video footage yesterday afternoon of us goofing around. This included some "tummy" time for Talia, which is very entertaining.



Talia just wrapped up a very full week that included visits from both sets of grandparents, her first trip around town, and her first walk in a stroller. Between friends and family, she is being thoroughly spoiled with gifts. (They say that you can't spoil a newborn, but it sure seems that she might be an exception...) We get a kick out of the fact that she's well on her way to becoming a "typical girl" - she's gotten new clothes every day since last Saturday, and she likes to sleep while making cute poses with her hands up by her face.


To conclude this entry, below is a special "good night" message. This video is now almost a week old - we took the video in the hospital - but it's entertaining so I figured we should still post it.




Until next time.....

- Mike

Talia is very fortunate to have you both as parents. You are very calm and loving parents. You are enjoying every minute, as you should. Time goes by way to fast. Give Talia a kiss from us.

That little girl is SO precious! I LOVE seeing her pictures and watching those videos!! Loved it when you called her SQUEAKER (that is what I use to call Alex when she was the little). Those sweet little squeaks, eventually turn into an 11 yr olds MOUTH. (be warned!) haha
