We’ve been waiting to hear about Ian and Christine’s new baby ever since Ian called us from the hospital 36 hours ago! When we hadn’t heard anything by midnight tonight, we figured that we would just hear about the birth in the morning. But for whatever reason Jessica couldn’t fall asleep tonight and just happened […]

Man! Taking care of Simon is such hard work. Really — it is! It’s not all sleeping and snuggling, no matter what the photographic evidence seems to indicate. I mean, I was up from 3:00 – 4:00 AM this morning dancing and bouncing and singing song after song after song trying to get a totally […]
Simon hit twelve weeks old today, and in celebration of that fact (as well as the realization that we had taken no pictures of him in 2007 yet) Mom went a bit crazy with the digital camera. First there’s a series of glamor shots taken on the day bed in our guest bedroom (a.k.a. Mom’s […]
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 […]

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).
