Adios Ito

Sorry for the delay in posting. We've been doing well. My dad wrapped up his visit today and headed home. He was a great help, especially since it was Orcale OpenWorld this week and Tom had some late night events to attend. Leo was very fussy last night and it was either gas or missing his dad.

Here are a few shots of Leo with his Ito.

Two wild and crazy guys

We had probably our biggest outing yet to see this exhibit. I wore Leo in the moby wrap and he was protected from cooties and slept the whole time.

Here's a shot from last night. Does anyone spot a trend?

a quick post before bed...

My dad is in town and he kept Leo content long enough so I could eat lunch with two hands.
Tom attempts to introduce Leo to a fine Zin.

Getting older

Leo will be a month old tomorrow. It's feels like he just got here and he's always been here at the same time. It's been such an amazing time for all of us. So many changes. For example, I'm no longer squeamish about poop, pee or spit up (I slept in a wet puddle of spit up yesterday). I'm in total awe of Tom as a dad. I knew he'd be good at it, but he's really amazing. And Leo... well, he's just the sweetest kid ever.

Here are a couple of pics from his birth.

Here are a couple from today.

Baby's first hike

We're having some great weather, so we decided to go out and have our first hike as a family. Here's Tom on the trail with Leo in the Baby Bjorn. This was a gift from Tracy and Pedja, and Tom raved about how comfortable it is.

We didn't get to the end of the trail because I was a too hot and tired. But, come on, I just pushed out a baby.

Party animals

Tom snapped a pic of Leo and me having a raging Friday night.

Note that the burp cloth is tucked under my chin, even though I'm not the one who spits up after every time I eat.

Thrush

Leo and I have thrush, which is a yeast infection that lives in his mouth and on my nipples. (And, based on my google search, it is also a type of song bird and a metal band.) Currently, breastfeeding is very painful, but don't worry, Leo is getting plenty to eat. He's up a full pound since his two week appointment.

Check out his double chin.

Also, I think his eyes are getting more blue.
He's rocking the faux-hawk.
