She talks!

As of yesterday, Mireya has found her voice! She babbles and coos all the time now. Jason and I have even heard her squeal with delight a couple of times. That’s definitely our favorite thing. We put a video up of her talking. Here’s the link: Mireya Discussing Her Day. She’s so cute!!! Every day she seems to have more and more to say. I think she might be talkative like me.

I love you, Mireya

I just need to post about how much I love my baby girl, Mireya! She is so beautiful and I am so lucky to be her father. I still can’t believe that I am a dad!

Mireya is growing so fast. She is over 10 pounds now! Soon she will be twice the weight she was when she was born. She is such a wiggly one. She is also trying to talk so much now!

I love you, Mireya, and hope that you have a great life, of which your mother and I can provide for you.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow…

Mireya is starting to lose her baby hair! Oh no! I kissed the top of Mireya’s head yesterday and got a mouth full of fuzz. I wasn’t too worried though until I bathed her. After washing her hair she looks like a balding middle-aged man! Why do babies lose the hair they were born with? Ahh, I just looked it up. It’s called telogen effluvium. Whew, at least I know it’s normal and it will all grow back. Her hair might even grow back in curly like mine. We’ll see…

Diaper Change From Hell

Jason and I have gotten changing diapers down to a science. At least that’s what we thought until yesterday. Who knew that a tiny little baby could make such a horrible mess? We certainly didn’t and we weren’t expecting it, so it came as quite a shock. You can tell Jason is still trying to figure out what just happened by the look on his face in the photographs. I couldn’t stop laughing. I’m just so glad that it didn’t happen when I was changing her.

Jason thought he was in for a routine diaper change when things went horribly wrong…  View disaster photos here.
