Little miss congeniality

People

You wouldn't believe how much better my disposition has been in the last week. I smile a lot, I cry less, and I don't screem like a banshee if I'm not walked around the house held "just so".

I'm cooing up a storm, and I'll smile for no reason whatsoever other than that I'm happy to see you.

Oh, and I'm sleeping nearly 12 hours straight at night, so everyone's happy.

The balloon? Glad you asked - I wave my arms around, but to say that it's deliberate would be a bit of a an exaggeration. But tie a balloon to my arm, and suddenly cause and effect are magnified. It's fun. My brother did the same thing when he was 2.5 months old...

Speaking of Daniel, here we are. Just hanging out. Notice something different? I'm not wearing pink!

Yes, we've tallied up the various clothes I have from friends and family, and I have nearly 60 outfits - the majority of which are pink. This surplus will last until I'm about 12 months old, I estimate - though there are already clothes I'm too tall for.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I went off and had an ultrasound of my kidneys, and all is good. Why bother? Most of you probably know that I have a family history of ARPKD, and while the odds are now pretty darned low that I'll ever have polycystic kidneys, there's no actual test.

So all is good. Until next time.

Love. R.
