Out and About

Susannah is a month old today, and I can't imagine her not being in our life. We're starting to get out and about more and are enjoying a bunch of firsts: first smiling at mommy, first bottle feeding (of pumped breastmilk), first trip to Burlington, first lunch out, first family party, first trip to the swimming pond...

I usually wear her in the moby wrap when we walk around town:

(Note the little hand waving up there)

It's really nice to have her close to me and she usually sleeps the whole time. She's also made her first friend, a strapping three-month-old named Forrest. They like to play together while their mommies hang out.


I don't want to give the impression that it's all bunnies and flowers. Sometimes Susannah is a crankypants, usually because she wants to eat RIGHT NOW. I find her cranky face adorable and hilarious, although it's hard when we are somewhere where it is inconvenient to eat RIGHT NOW such as driving down the highway.
