Things have slowly returned to normal in Seattle after the holidays. The snow melted and family returned home, although for some reason the Eagles are still playing. Veronica has loyally been watching the games sporting her Brian Westbrook jersey to bring the Iggles good luck.


We tried to introduce a night time ritual to help Veronica get to sleep and sleep through the night since Momma goes back to work on Monday. Alas, V still wakes up every 2-3 hours to nurse during the night. The night time ritual of a tubby, a song, and a bottle hasn't changed V's sleep pattern at all, but describing it is an good excuse to post tubby pics.


Veronica had a play date with some big girls this week too. And big girls are the coolest! One of Momma's colleagues, Jennifer, stopped by with her two daughters Olivia and Anna. Veronica laughed harder watching the girls play than she has ever laughed before. Cleary she has been humoring us with courtesy laughs all this time. The girls jumped around and Veronica couldn't keep her eyes off of them.


Daddy started his paternity leave this week with extra week of sick time added to the beginning to recover from getting his knee scoped. Opening a vacation with knee surgery doesn't lend itself to many kodak moments, but at least we can all sleep in a bit later that usual or just hang out and chat.
