6 weeks old...






Things are going great with Finn.  He slept for 6 hours straight the other night which was a great relief to two sleep deprived parents.  I hope he keeps it up but we will see since things change so quickly with a newborn.  I don't know if it is because he is a boy or not but everything physical is coming so much quicker with him... he already stands when we hold him up, rolls from side to side, and loves his tummy time so much he would basically be crawling if he had the arm strength since he back end is already doing the motion!

Steve came to visit for a couple days which was so much fun!  Lola had a great time with her Uncle and woke up the day after he left with a frown on her face saying "I miss Uncle Teevie so much".  What can you say to that... she looks like and has the same personalty as her Godpa so I knew they would have a ball together.

Lola is still loving her baby brother and has been so helpful, she always lets me know when he is crying and goes up to him and says "it's ok Finn Finn, don't worry".  She is so cute at this age. Lola is getting bigger and bigger by the second, she is so tall (95 percentile) and is talking in complete sentences now.  Sometimes I think she is too smart for her own good :)

Work has been going well for Daniel, he has been given more responsibilities at work which is great but also means more pager time.  In June the technology he is bringing over to his fab will be ramping up so our nights will be full of pages once again but he will hopefully be going to a shift schedule which could mean a three day weekend.  

We are going back to Michigan in less than two weeks which is very exciting... we can not wait for Finn to meet all of our family and friends (and get a date night out... thanks to Uncle Steve and Aunt Becca).

Life is great as a family of four but also exhaustingly busy!  I will update again soon.

Love from all of us!

Hey guys! Hope you have a great time in Michigan. Sorry about all the sleepless nights - maybe boys are harder this way. We are still struggling, but getting better. We look forward to seeing you here or there this Spring. You always have a place to stay in SF. Until then we will keep checking the blog. Love your pics - Finn is starting to look like a baby (not a newborn) and so cute!! Lola is a doll, looks just like Steve! We love you!!
