Here we are just 6 weeks into this journey of parenthood and I feel like we're pros. Ok, so there are times when neither one of us can calm her down for what seems like an eternity, but we are learning what she likes from day to day. She is starting to show off her voice more and more in a good way. She has learned she can make noises when she's not crying. I love listening to her as she has tummy and back time on the floor. I am also impressed that when she does cry she actually says "waaaa". When we get a good video of it we'll show you how her mouth actually moves when she says the "w" and how it really does sound like she's crying "waaa". Sometimes mommy giggles at her a bit too long, but we always recover well. She has started to settle into a pattern that allows sleep in chunks growing closer and closer to 5 hours at a time at night. It's amazing how much that helps me feel like a human again.
Bruno and Daphne continue to be great friends as you can see in the picture below. For those of you who know Bruno well, you know one of his favorite games is to take off our socks and throw them around the room. Well, he has discovered that Daphne also wears socks (and when she has footie p.j.s on he thinks she has socks on), and that sometimes she has socks on her hands (her mittens). He tries a little to take them off, and she just keeps kicking and waving around which of course only provokes him. We cherish these moments, but can't wait until she can really play with him.

I'm glad to hear that things are going well and that you're getting more sleep! I need to see that little girl before she grows up too much. Also, your last picture is almost off the cuteness charts - so sweet!
Yeah for sleeping babies! How funny about Bruno. I love that. I wonder what Jack will do with our little one. I don't think we'll get a cute snugly photo with him until she's a bit bigger. Being a Boxer makes him just a bit larger than she will be. I love that photo though :)
