New Do's

We absolutely love Hannah's crazy a** hair! It's the source of much amusement: we've endearingly called her Pineapple Head, Wilson (the volleyball from Cast Away) and Lil' Kim (Jong Il, not the rapper). And that's just off the top of my head. It gives her so much personality!

Unfortunately, Hannah's hair is getting so long at the top that it's starting to droop. So in order to prepare ourselves for the next hair phase, we tried out a couple of new do's:

Cute, but makes her look like a boy if she's not wearing pink.

This is the one we'll probably go with. She looks like a little Pikmin!

Our little girl is growing up!

Bumbo Time!

Hannah can now hold her head up! Actually she was able to a few weeks ago, but she's only now starting to enjoy being in the Bumbo. And I've been a lazy poster for those two holiday weeks.

We're looking forward to walks with Hannah in a Baby Bjorn! Fortunately, Auntie Jenny sent us hers just in time. Thanks Jenny!

Tummy Time!

Hannah is able to lift her head! That was fast -- it's only been 10 weeks! Now if she could only progress as quickly in the sleep department...

2 Month Progress Report


How's Hannah doing? Watch the movie to find out!

She's focussing on objects very well and she's improving her hand-eye coordination daily. We'll be playing LittleBigPlanet together in no time!

Also, we went to the pediatrician on Friday. She rolled over for her doctor....twice! When is she gonna do that for us??!!

And for those who are curious, she's now 9 lbs, 12 oz and is 22 inches tall. Her weight and height are in the 25th percentile. Her head is a little small though -- she's in the 5th percentile there.

Cradle Cap....Pwned!

Yeah, Hannah has a cradle cap problem (see earlier post). Fortunately we have it under control -- for now. Her face rash is improving too. Thanks Aquafor!

Gratuitous Near-Smiling Pics




That's right...it's our blog and we'll post what we want!!!!

Oh Noes! Cradle Cap Rears Its Ugly Head...

Hannah has developed cradle cap. Either that or it's snowing in the San Fernando Valley. We washed it off and it really isn't too big a deal, but hopefully it won't continue.

Oh Thank Heavens!

Hannah started smiling this week! Thankyouthankyouthankyou! We don't care if it's gas..we'll take it!

By the way, Hannah is 5 weeks old today! She now weighs 7 lbs, 15 oz. We also learned that she's in the bottom 25 percentile in terms of height -- just like Mommy!

4 Weeks Old!

Hannah is 4 weeks old today! What a perfect excuse to come up with a time capsule! In her 28 days here on earth she already has some favorites. And by favorites I mean stuff that doesn't make her cry. Here they are:

Favorite Song: "Sellotape" by Flight of the Conchords
Favorite Book: "Daddy's Kisses" by Anne Gutman and George Hallensleben
Favorite Sleeping Spot: On the My Brest Friend.
Favorite Breast: The left one
Favorite Sound: The rain sound from the Sleep Sheep. The one that sounds like sizzling bacon. That's Daddy's favorite sound as well.
Favorite Burping Position: Over the Shoulder, although two weeks ago it was the Cedars' Stanglehold
Favorite Drink: Rasberry Mojitos. She likes the sweet drinks.
Favorite Activity: Being bounced on the Yoga Ball

We'll check back in a month to see if her tastes have changed. Stay tuned!

2 Weeks Old!


Hannah is now 2 weeks old! She's now one ounce over birthweight, and she grew an inch and a half (but lost about an inch of her cone head). We also think she's gotten a little chubbier. But most importantly, her eye muscles are developing so she doesn't look so cross-eyed anymore. She isn't inheriting daddy's vision...Yay!

Anyway, to celebrate, we took her on her first walk ever. Check out her pimpin' ride!

Another Milestone Reached

After only 9 days, Hannah's umbilical cord dropped! This item will fit in nicely with our meconium poop, orange urine crystals and early booger collection.

What A Difference One Week Makes!

The image on the left is a picture of our daughter just ten minutes outside of the womb. Yikes!!!! Luckily, Cedars has an awesome Costco-style return policy, so we ended up taking it back and got one of these really cute ones on the right instead. They even threw in a designer hat for our trouble. Thanks Cedars!

Happy One Week Birthday, Hannah!
