Man, we’ve seen a lot of babies this year. A lot. Literally. Like, if there were a vacant lot down the street and we all dropped our babies off there it would be really, really full. And then we’d all go to jail for child endangerment. But what I’m trying to get across is that [...]

Boy, Simon had a great day today! He started off with some colossal sleeping. We put him down at 10:00 PM last night, intending to wake him for a scheduled feeding in an hour. I talked Jessica into going to sleep and waiting for him to wake us up, but that didn’t happen until 4:30 [...]
After a fun Christmas Eve party at our house, in which Simon received many books, toys and even CD’s from his Grandparents, Aunt Barb, Uncle Dan and (unofficial) Auntie Jen, Simon saved the best present of all for his parents: six-and-a-half hours of sleep! That’s right — three-hundred and nintey minutes of uninterrupted pillowy bliss. [...]
During a particularly good Active-Alert phase this morning we tried to capture the elusive Simon Smile. I’ll let you be the judge of how well we did. Follow the link through the picture below (of a definitely non-smiling Simon, although I think he looks like he’s thinking about something funny) to the entire Simon Smiles [...]
Wearing his latest straight-from-the-UK fashions (courtesy of his pen-pal Thomas), Simon prepares to meet the hipsters at Highland Coffee Company while Mom and Dad get caffeinated. Despite how awake he is in this picture, he pretty much slept through the whole event. No coffee for Simon!

It’s a good thing someone does, because after getting totally overstimulated at his first Halloween party Simon is currently throwing what may be the most intense fit of his short little life. He’s adorable in his cute little Halloween outfit, though (pictured below about five minutes before total meltdown).
The Many Faces of Simon
Posted in Hospital Fun, Matthew on Oct 31st, 2006
Just found these pictures from Simon’s last day in the hospital. He’s a week-and-a-half older now and much less yellow, but I thought they were pretty funny and I wanted to post them. Looks a little like Winston Churchill in the rightmost one, doesn’t he? We shall fight on the beaches…we shall nevah surrendah!
From all the recent photos of me and Simon together, you might be tempted to think that I’m the one doing all the work around here. Yeah, right! It’s just that most of Jessica’s time with Simon involves a certain amount of nudity. So today, I’m determined to get some good (non-nude) photos of Simon [...]
In response to the many requests for more photos of Simon, Jessica and I are trying to be a bit less shy with the camera. Simon’s also starting to look a bit less, um, “fresh outta the womb” and growing more baby-like every day.
