First Road Trip

Let’s do housekeeping with these comments I’ve been receiving. My goal is to create a new post once a week. It’ll usually be early in the week on Mondays or Tuesdays since the weekend is when all the fun happens. As for my weight, I haven’t been eating can’t you tell?! Seriously, I think the breastfeeding is really helping and fast metabolism runs in my family. I gained 40 pounds at the peak of my pregnancy. Now eight weeks after giving birth, I’m wearing my pre-prego jeans! At my postpartum appointment last week, doc confirmed I’m healthy and ready to go for another one…ya right! I’m heading back to the gym this week to work off a few more pounds and tighten up some loose ends. I intend to enjoy the fruit of my labor a little longer before going the other way on the scale…again!

Us at our friend, Carey's bday party over the weekend.

For current news, Katie is napping like a baby. We’ve been out and about almost every day so we’re starting to notice she’s seeing things further, paying more attention to people talking to her, reacting to our facial expressions and much, much more.

Katie and aunty Annie at my parents' house. They babysat her for the first time there last week and had a blast!

We took Katie on a short road trip to San Francisco over the weekend to attend a grownup party and visit family. She loves sleeping in the car (as long as it is moving) so she was knocked out during the rides. She also slept very well overnight waking at her normal times for feeding and changing then back to sleep.

Claudia being a great older sister to Katie helping feed, change and dress her.
