Cute Baby Alert


It's been a while since I last typed, but we were waiting to get some recent pictures and then I just kept putting it off.

I, Karen, am doing well. Gabriel is sleeping longer hours at night allowing me to get more rest. He also sleeps quite a bit during the day letting me get some of the housework done. When he's not asleep he sometimes allows me to set him in his car seat while I work and he watches me. Other than that there is nothing really to report.


Gabriel just had his 4 month check up on Monday. He wasn't a very happy baby. He was tired and hungry and then he got three needles stuck into him. He weighs in at 15 lbs 5 ozs and is a rather tall 26 1/4 inches in length. We've started him on a feeding schedule the pediatrician gave us so on Monday he had his first rice cereal. We have it all on video tape for future embarrasment.


Dan is getting everything ready for his 3 week business trip to India. He leaves on the 8th and gets back on the 30th (just in time for Gabriel's first Halloween). His migraines have subsided to a slight degree, but the aspirin he was taking for his heart started causing his stomach to protest. Now he gets to take a generic Zantak pill twice daily.


That's all from this end. We're still hoping to get some of the photos from the reunion (wink, wink, nudge nudge, Jennifer).


Love to you all,


- Karen
