The wonderful days with Eva continue. I’m off for two weeks and my main purpose for those two weeks is to help Allison care for Eva and settle into our new life together. We are starting to get a bit of a hang to this parenthood thing. For one thing I don’t think Eva caught us with a stealth pee today. She nailed us each yesterday. But you live and learn. Scratch that, I just changed her before she went to bed an she nailed me. I let my guard down.
Today we gave Eva her first washcloth bath since she has been home. Well, Allison gave her the bath and I took photos. We had to have photos of the first bath. I added a few to the Baby Eva gallery on flickr.
I’ve been working on figuring out how the munchkin iCrib works correctly. It seems to be way too loud and I can’t figure out how to make it lower. I’ve taken to putting music on while I change her. She seems to be calmed down more when I play the music.
Speaking of music, I spent a little while with Eva so Allison could sleep a little while. I put in the tribute to John Lennon CD. And we hung out. And I read to her a bit and we both fell asleep. I guess being tired can really sneak up on you.
We took Eva for a little walk this afternoon. We stopped off at the yarn store so Allison could say hi to the woman who owns it. She wasn’t there but another woman who worked there was. Then Allison stopped home and I went up to Bob’s market with Eva to get some broccoli for dinner. The day was pretty calm overall and we had a nice time, we caught up on a few shows and started getting some more things done in the new bathroom. I have to prime and paint it this week too.
I finally made a post about all the shows that we caught up on this past week. I like our LCD TV but it is a little small int he entertainment center. It isn’t so much a priority anymore. Reading to the baby and changing diapers is the priority these days.

that’s a cute baby and kitty!
They certainly are.
Is it me, or does the baby look slightly annoyed with the new competition? Very beautiful baby, though. Oh, I clicked on the link after Now Playing: and I had a devil of a time trying to get back to your page. Just FYI
If you mean that Duncan is the baby and he looks annoyed with his new human sister, then yes, he does. He likes to be able to get up and sit anywhere he pleases. He didn’t like me moving him off the changing table.
I followed the music link and clicked the drop down button on my back button and went right back to my blog. I’m not sure what happened with your experience with Foxytunes. Sorry.
I am scared of the way the kitty is looking at the baby.
Since I am a cat lover, I especially love this photo. Looks like the cat feels the competition! There’s nothing like the smell of a new baby and having that tiny little life in your hands. Wonderful times!
I think you are reading way into his expression. Duncan is a very loving cat and has been very good with Eva.
Hi Sonya,
We are having a wonderful time with Eva, she is so awesome. I just sit and watch her, I can’t stop giving her little kisses, she is so sweet. The cats have been very sweet around her too.
