The big news in Eva's life this week was the acquisition of a Baby Bouncer. This might seem like a small deal to you, but to Eva it was one of the great moments in life. She was smiling and bouncing within seconds of installation, and she would bounce for hours if we'd only let her. Mom and Dad are pleased too, because we get to cook dinner with BOTH hands, which is far easier and safer for everyone. All hail the BABY BOUNCER!

Life is good!

Eva had her 4 month checkup last week, and while she is still angry about that second round of vaccinations, we enjoyed learning that she's all of 24 inches tall and over 14.5 lbs chubby.

We also enjoyed a too-brief visit from Cat's dad Steve, on his way home from Geneva; he regaled us with stories of skiing on glaciers and sipping Swiss espresso, resulting in little-to-no sympathy for all the hard work he did on his "business trip".
