Hello. Today Grandma Charlotte left, making tomorrow the second day since Holden's birth where it will be the just the three of us. We are lucky to have such a caring and flexible family [I am now doing the Jim Halpert look towards an imaginary camera, think The Office].

Holden still resists Daddy's best efforts at a routine in the evenings. Despite the perfect bath water temperature, playing with rubber ducky, a fresh diaper and clothes Holden blows up as the last snap is fastened. So in a way his lamentations are part of the routine, fusing and fighting until he gets mothers milk then a walk with Daddy and he is out. Holden continues to sleep through most of the night, may the gods of Babydom be praised.

Mommy has started running again and will hopefully compete in another marathon, unless Daddy knocks her up again. Holden's first trip is coming up in May, to a wedding in Connecticut. I dread this operation more than any other in my career. Have a good one.
Dread?!
ReplyDeleteThis will be your son's first cocktail hour, first visit to a winery, first champagne-dinner-dancing under the stars...that is, unless you've been holding out on us, in your blog! xoAunt M.
