Had a couple more photos from yesterday (Sunday) that I thought I'd put up. Not too much to report, really.
Or should I say, nothing different to report. As usual, Margaret seems to look different every time we wake up. This morning, I could swear she looked different from yesterday, with seemingly more intelligence and intent behind those eyes of hers.
She continues to be drooling a ton but there are no signs of teeth. She continues to grab at things with her little hands with more strength and more deliberateness.
We're living the old saw that "the only constant is change." It's odd, but as much as one day seems like the last, the changes are many from one day to the next.
Of course, the real constant is Margaret in our lives. With each new development, we learn more and more about her and who she is inside. It is enormously gratifying and each night, SAM and I both marvel at where she is now and what we're going to learn next.
Exhilarating. Exhausting, but exhilarating.

She's irresistable.
Isn't it a gift of nature that small beings of every species are endearing? Not as many would survive otherwise! To wake up to that face and those gurgling noises and the daily evolution of this little personhood kind of makes the never-having-a-minute-to-yourself worth it, doesn't it? It's certainly not boring!
Thank you for this unexpected gift today! :-) XXOO
Bonus indeed!!
My new screensaver.

drooling starts way before teeth appear... and yes, the exhaustion. There's a reason babies are so cute -- you'd toss them in the bin and shut the lid to get some respite if they weren't so irresistible.
