First bath

Prior to our first bath, we filled the bathroom with steam, resulting in both poor visibility and a happy baby.

Early days

Since D had such an uneventful entrance into the world, we only needed to spend 2 short days in the hospital before coming home with our very own newborn baby. Exciting and a little scary! We'd done this before, but five years is plenty of time to forget what you've learned.

Welcome Devin!

One week ago today, little brother Devin entered the world. He was right on time, and immediately started proving himself to be an easygoing, cooperative little guy - born on his due date, quick to figure out nursing, sleeping well (or as well as can be expected for a brand new human). He is an absolute joy.

December in California

Since the pressure to catch up on the past 6 months made the task feel seemingly insurmountable, we're fast forwarding to the present.

Not surprisingly, California has been gorgeous. Really showing off. We are feeling a palpable sadness at the prospect of returning to sub-zero temperatures.

Catching up to the present day

Summer and fall in Boston were fabulous, as usual. We mixed up the summer with a trip to Storyland and lots of local mini adventures. Eva as usual seemed to have a pretty good time, no matter the setting.
