Surviving Solo

WOW -- who knew babies could be this much fun? Gabe and Elias have started coming out of their infant shell this week and have become more interactive and joyful. Both boys clearly recognize Chris and are excited to see him. We don't know if it is the glasses, the facial hair, or the dry sense of wit, but both Gabe and Elias get all smiley and silly when they see Chris. It is fun to watch!

So anyone who has visited us knows that each week, Chris does the "week in review" -- a slideshow of the week's photos on the television. (Yes, we are total baby geeks.) This week's week in review was great. It reminded us that we are proud to survive our first week without extra family help. We made it (barely)! Overall, we are all doing well, but we did notice some themes in this week's photo review. Let's say we were a little drowsy...

We are proud that both babies are still with us and thriving. We haven't even lost them... Okay... there was that 10 minutes where we couldn't find Elias...Elias with New Friends
