He's Got Jenn's Fingers!


Well day two was just as spectacular as day one, well for us it was, Graeme got circumcised and I am sure that was not a special memory for him. We had special visits from Meghan Knight and Rachel McGreevy, two of Jenn's close friends. Meghan brought a four pack of Guinness so that was particularly nice for baby and by baby I mean me! We spent most of the day just looking and listening to Graeme. As I am sure people do with all newborns, we've been playing the "he looks like" game. Consensus would have it that he is a mini Will, however, there are a few features that are clearly Jenn's. Right now the most prominent of which are his slender fingers. I give you exhibit A. I love this picture just because it's my son holding my hand, and he has quite a grip, but it alo shows that he is decidedly non-sausage fingered. This means he'll be able to get the change that falls between the seats while driving, pick up a penny off the counter top and tie knots in sewing thread all things his Dad cannot. After a long day of analyzing Graeme's sounds, sleep and feeding patterns and his diaper matter Jenn gave me the night off. Janice stayed the night on the pull out hospital chair, thanks Mom. I'm just about to head back, having prepared some cantaloupe and mango and packed a bag of essentials like Jenn's hair dryer, conditioner and a razor for Jenn. This should be the last day inthe Hospital, Jenn did her first lap around the floor yesterday and all is looking up with her recovery. One more night and Graeme is homeward bound!!!

Thanks to Mom and Gary for hanging around most of yesterday. Big props to Gary for bring in some pizza and some apps for our mid afternoon nosh.
