Approximately π weeks old

Abby is now 22 days old and doing fine. Our little girl is smiling when we sing our silly songs to her; when she tries to tell us she is hungry, she does so with such force you'd think she has a built-in bullhorn; and she can lie on her stomach and lift her head to look around already.

And how is David coping with it all? When you are just six years old, getting a baby brother or sister is a big adjustment as you find yourself vying for the limited amount of attention available and unfortunately, often finding yourself with less than you are used to. David is no exception but he is taking it as well as we had hoped and we try really hard to spend some quality time with him one-on-one such as going to see movies at the local (excellent) library while leaving the girls at home. Most importantly, David loves his little sister. They can talk for quite some time. I'm sure he tries to teach her all sorts of naughty tricks! :-)
