This Saturday, Charlie and Bruno will reach 2 months old. These guys are surprising and delighting us every day. While they stretch our sanity from time to time, we've been lucky so far that they've remained healthy and that their needs have remained simple and easy to meet -- eating, burping, changing, sleeping, with some walks and play mixed in for good measure.
Things that have changed in month 2: the human child hair is coming in (though still short), their heads have grown much bigger, they reliably sleep 4 hours at a time, and oh -- we've both gone back to work!
One theme of having babies is that you have only small amounts of time to do any one thing. In keeping with that, here's about the first half of the story in pictures. I'll follow up the next time I'm awake and idle... sure to happen soon, right?
Jan 12 was also the day the Magic Devices of Soothing were introduced. So much more peace in the house! Just don't try to cover up real problems with them...
More tranquility on Jan 16. For a while, they were only this peaceful during the daytime. Look out for the Milk Vampire pictures in the forthcoming Part 2.
More to come...
