She's two weeks old as of today. It seems like not so long ago she was just daddy's little princesa, and now she's...well, she's a little bigger at least. And she squirms like crazy, and she makes funny noises, and she fills diapers like nobody's negocios. And yeah, she's a real charmer.
Honestly though (because I rarely do speak honestly on this blog ...jk), I think this parent thing is some seriously tough work, in that worthwhile and rewarding type of way, of course. I mean, this is only week two and I'm a little crankier from lack of sleep and frustrated sometimes cuz it takes us like an extra hour and a half to get ready to leave the house cuz she craps like half a dozen diapers right when we're about to go, and we gotta get her milk ready so she stays fed and and yada yada yada. But overall, I'm lovin it (and screw McDonald's for appropriating that expression for their commercials).
We are out and about, though. We've logged trips to the hospital, the g-rents houses, the farmer's market, and a couple other spots along the way. Its some good 'ol fashioned family stuff, ya know. Vale mostly sleeps through the whole thing, occasionally grunting or cooing just to assure us that she's all good. And Karla is super-momming it up big time. Love ya, babe. I pretty sure she'll be good at this. That's good, too, cuz I might need just a (Valen-)teeny bit of help along the way ;)
1. i like the headline at the top of the blog. "Thank Kevin for little girls"- whoever thought of that is sooo clever! *wink wink*

3. Is she wearing jeans? hilariously adorable.
