Photo s-maybe?

Ella- when gram visits let yur mom help her with this uploading problem. That is me and my brother T. he licks my face but he is gentle and hasnt yet taken my toys. See you soon-D.

back to D and back again!

Grma was back and she could not believe how big I've gotten. She spent a lot of time just observing me and we conversed.She in her language and i in mine of course. Ihave several vowels,a cooing schwa sound,"ae", and "ah. I can say 4 vowels in a row,I did aga and ahka. (Note to aunt alissa-gram says punctuation and spelling and capitals are over rated!). My eye contact and smiles have increases and i sort of laugh on the inhalation. gram explained that currently it is difficult for me to coordinate the diaphragmatic expulsion of air over the vocal chords with vocalizatiion but this is progressing nicely for an 8 week old.
Note to E- gram is coming back to see me again- She and I will converse more. she will see yu soon.LOL D.

PS gram dosent know what she did but is having trouble uploading images -no surprize there!

Oh E how rude of me- your pictures are great -very flattering. I had a hat like that but it wasnt the same color.

D says- I now have tried sleeping in my big boy crib twice already.That big cry still sends my staff running. all i want is to eat. How are they treating you there. Have you seen any bear in that wilderness region of yours.

Hi D Gram is doing better with upload with your mom's help. I cant wait to meet you. I hear yu are eating a lot.

Back to See Dean

GRam is visiting again-she cannot believe how big I've grown. Head control is gresat-my vocabulary has increased at least two vowels ,a K and g I'm so kool. I can maintain eyecontact and track people. We had many good conversations while mom and dad were at the hospital. I showed gram the lovely botanicals on the wall and we just hung out!

I think I got it!

Baby E -I hope these are the good pictures. I cant wait to meet everyone.especially cousin D. By the way my head control is doing fine. I'm just 6days old. My eyes are still blue so is D's. Our parents are wishn and hopn that they stay that way.

D says --it isn't easy being green.

E says oooh- this is soo nice -they feed me they hold me they keep me warm and talk sooo nice to me. Gma-keeps trying to make me burp- She needs to chill.so special Hi to aunt h on the West coast.

Hi It's me-D Snow ???I have another new cousin -In case i didnt mention it yesterday -her name is I. When will i see her. Where will we meet. Well wecome.

E comes home from the Hospital

Well baby e had to come home from the hospital today in the pouring SNOW-what is that.?? Gma said- she is still very mellow and sleeping. ???I'm getting better at the sleep thing. Gma had to give some helpful hints like--NEVER Shoosh in a baby's ear. that is just rude! Swaying.swaddling,even a pacifier is ok but never shoosh. In what research does it state that whitenoise is the sound heard inutero?? This shooshing thing really made gram annoyed.

Baby E--I arrived home today- i don't live in that busy place they call the hospital. Wow I like my room and my house. BaBY D i have a fuzzy brother too -not a dog a cat. My room is very beautiful. I hope there is room for my shoes-when I get some!I already have lots of pretty clothes. Mom and Dad are pretty kool-they are very "green". It is snowing and that white stuff is sticking to the grass-I heard mom and dad say that .

Lost one!

Ok gma cant upload that photo.so she gets jibberish.
TALK -E we cannot talk yet but I can say a,and ah- you probably have a vowel as well. i personally cant wait for O then two at the same time. then reciprocal. Oh the things we have to learn.

Message to e

Ok I dont know what gma did but this is the continuation-So E- you are one day old. what do you think of the lights and sounds. Seeing your mom and dad those familiar voices in person -kool huh? The swaddle strange but comforting. How about that suck and swallow thing? You'll get it. dont worry about the spit-up -youve just over filled yur tank! I do that all the time.Well Gma has work to do so she says-burp cloths and onsies.Talk soon yur BFF D.

Baby E is here

Well I just got the news Baby e has arrived. She is my cousin. I am older and wiser by now. Cant wait to meet her.See what she thinks of this place and these people.Wonder if she has a fuzzy brother like I do.

First Days Home by Baby D

Well here I am-been here a while now. That is my brother T.So far I have learned to control these big people. I just rev up the sounds I make -0-60 in one second. I am hungry! or I want to eat now. Or I am uncomfortable.

My guess is that babies are just immature digestive creatures.they control us-their staff-by crying and we do their bidding. Feed/burp/feed/clean-diaper/hold,rock feed ,burp diaper etc etc etc. yes it takes a village.

I dont live in the hospital this is my home-I hope Carmie can upload the picture of me in the car-seat-she describes it as a torture seat.I like it here.Still not sleeping well. they all take turns rocking and swaying and giggling me. Still does not feel the same as beforebut getting better at it. I have a lot of stuff. A mom,dad ,grandm,grandpa,two aunts,a cousin on the way-what does that mean? I have diapers and boppy and everthing I sit in either swings,or vibrates or makes noise. This place is very differentSensory input is amazing. LIGHT- sum-outside,cold warm-movement ,wet dry omg-there is a lot of stuff going on all the time.
Oh My brother T- he looks very different from the rest of the fam-and he licks me a lot.And my Mom- they keep telling her-Dont squeeze the baby!
I know how to spit up,cry,pee and poop an burp and I make funny faces and I smile. I can cry really good. they-my staff-keep saying it's a good thing he is sooo Well now Carmie is visiting. she islearning to sway and hold me with more confidence. We are bonding.
OH OH did i tell you about my visitors at the hospital -big people and kidsand a whole group of people in uniforms-Thought they were gonna arrest Dad-but no they were friends. We have a lot of them.
Diaper Changing! man they rip off my clothes,wipe me with a frigid thing,tape me into a diaper and wonder why I cry.Dressing me-not so easy. I'll get you-first I'll kick as hard as i can and move my arms and see how that is. I am going to pee on your wall if you dont hurry -up!!

Welcome to this world.

OMG! Where is my lawyer?? I've been evicted. No advance notice -Just drag me out by my feet-humiliating! that was such a warm cozy safe place. where am I? What is going on. Who are these people? I'm hungry.

Becoming a grandma for the first time was quite an experience. Not being the mom, I felt more objective in my observations. these ideas are a month late but I'll try to catch up.

Ok-I hope this is not my home. It's kind of sterile-People- Oh I recognize the voice - that's my mom.she is soft and warm. That's Dad-He can hold me like a football in one hand-wow. Oh 'hospital" that is where I am. born- hmmm-arrived I guess. boy I'm hungry.

did not sleep well- I had to communicate rather vigorously- but I'm still hungry. Not too comfortable. They keep me in a plastic box and i get pushed around alot.

Visitors! OK - they are timid about holding me. I do not bite-yet! That is Carmie-aka-grandmaJ.Grandpa took a day before he would hold me.

Wow- dad went home to sleep. good that means we dont live here. Grandma-carmie Stayed the night. a privilege.

More to come. 1st days home. And E is coming . D.
