Clearly I have neglected this blog. Here are a few highlights in our lives:
Walking!
Talking!
Signing!
Ladybug just got back from a week-long (and I mean long!) trip to Gram and Grandpa’s house in Chicago. We missed her like crazy!
We went out and about today to a puppet show at the library. Check out the pics:

Pops here.
On Saturday Miss Bug will be 9 months. I maintain that this is going even faster for me than it does for parents who start younger. Ever since age 25 I feel like that scene in Star Wars when they go into hyper drive. Remember that? Still and placid stars in an instant blur [...]

Miss Ladybug is sitting on my lap content to babble away about who-knows-what. She sounds so matter of fact about her nonsense that I could easily be convinced that she knows exactly what she means to be saying. My heart melts every time she says “mama” even though it’s pretty clear that she isn’t associating [...]

Apologies for the recent infrequency of posts. This is Papa again. (i’ll probably be doing the majority of posts for a while. mom’s acclimating herself to a new job.)
Ms. Bugg is growing like a cooing, smiley, and very active squishy weed.
She’s on the cusp of crawling. She definitely moves, but it’s more a process of [...]

Ladybug’s 4 month check up went well. She is up to 13 pounds and 23 inches, which is on the short side and on the chubby side. Developmentally, she’s on schedule and even ahead on some things. Keep up the good work Miss Ladybug!
In other news, she has an increasing interest in books and toys. [...]

We’ve only been home since Sunday, but it feels like it’s been more like a week already because of our mixed up sleep cycles. Everyone always says to sleep when the baby sleeps, and we are getting used to trying to make sure that one of us is doing just that. Newborns do like to [...]

Some people will probably think I’m overly paranoid, but ever since the recent hubbub over Bisphenol-A in plastics, I have been worried. We registered for the Born Free brand of baby bottles because they had advertised themselves as BPA-free before anyone even cared. But it turns out that there are several brands to choose from [...]

The shower last weekend was lovely. A small group of people I don’t get to see too often gathered in a friend’s home to talk babies and give gifts. Everyone was so generous, and it was so nice to be able to visit wit them. Strange to think that next time we visit Chicago, we’ll [...]

Thank goodness for hand-me-downs!
Thanks to my in-laws and the great hand-me-downs they gave us, I’m now feeling a little more prepared. The Little Miss will have a decent wardrobe to come home to, including shoes. She has blankets galore, and even a vibrating chair–I’ve heard from many parents that this item is essential. I haven’t [...]

Ma! There’s Nothing to do Here!: A Word From Your Baby-in-Waiting by Barbara Park
How could I resist this book? It was written by acclaimed children’s book author Barbara Park as a baby shower gift to her daughter-in-law, and it would make a great baby shower gift for any mom-to-be. It doesn’t come out until 2008, [...]
