Week 24

A Valentine’s Day filled with the love for each other, the love for our daughter and the love of our free time for another four months.  Our first Valentine’s Day married, with a gift she bears that can never be matched although the snoogle was a pretty close second.  Captain and Tennile playing in the background it is a good weekend with baby pending baby pending.  She’s as big as an ear of corn, quite southern, and about a pound and a half which is some ear of corn.  Her consciousness rises up listening to us, music, and all that is happening around her.    

Luciana is starting to feel the weight of Emilia Clare, no longer moving around like the roadrunner beep beep but more like a commercial truck with the backup alarm.  She’s doing well, spirits up as the belly grows and grows.   Sleep schedule shifts as I’m awakened around 4:30 a few times a week with a defiant “I can’t sleep.”  Luckily it takes only minutes to fall back asleep, for me that is but it’s all just a matter of time. 

Getting ready to expand the family not only with Emilia Clare, but her namesake Emilia Maria for a few weeks then Veronica and Naerte for a few months.  Life shall turn upside down full of family, food, new schedules and little sleep.  Luciana will be out of school for almost 4 months while I get my two weeks of paternity.  Not bad if I do say so.  With a full house and I being the only one working- from homef as well- I may have to keep the blog up to ensure you that I haven’t gone completely nuckin futs.     

Week 24 has about turned into week 25, the bi-weekly update seems to suit me well.   Fotos to come, les prometo!
