Happy Birthday to me!
I'm one month old today, and boy am I exhausted. I just went to the doctor and weighed in at 9 pounds, 1 ounce. I'm in the middle of a growth spurt, so I'm always hungry!

I love books!
Whenever I get fussy, I like to look at books. The patterns they make on the shelves are just mesmerizing. Daddy says that the insides of books are pretty cool, too, but for now, I will just judge them by their covers.

Here I am spending some time at the San Francisco Zoo. I took Mimi and Papi there to show them where Mommy works. I especially like my cow socks- aren't they cool?

Love that Baby Bjorn!
This is my first trip around Stowe Lake in Golden Gate Park. Riding in the Baby Bjorn carrier is great- Daddy is nice and warm.

Burrr! San Francisco sure is cold and foggy! Luckily, Auntie Michelle and Uncle Bob gave me Emma's parka to wear. It's warm and toasty, just the way I like it.

Tummy time!
I started "tummy time" today- it helps me exercise and learn. Here I am playing with my blocks. I found the time pretty relaxing, and Mommy and Daddy seemed amused, too.

Now that I'm over one week old, I've developed a lot of skills. I'm very good at sleeping, crying, eating, pooping and looking extremely cute while doing nothing. I'm trying to get the hang of smiling, but sometimes I think I'm just gassy.

Nonie came to stay with me and help out for my first days home. She was great, and I think Mommy and Daddy really appreciated the support!

I'm here! After some severe squishing, I emerged into the world at 6:34 am. It wasn't that bad, really. Although it's cold out here. Mommy and Daddy seem nice.

I weighed in at 7 pounds, 11.4 ounces. The nurse said I'm 19 and 1/4 inches tall, but I prefer to stay curled up rather than stretch out.
