Tummy time with dad. The first time we gave tummy time a go we lasted about 4 seconds before someone (Naomi) was irate. Since then things have improved. She’s going to be doing somersaults soon. Age: 23 days

I have celebrated Mother’s Day as a dog mom in the past, but this was my first human babe Mother’s Day. Naomi sat at our feet in her car seat at the restaurant while John and I drank our orange juice and ate our brunch- she even stayed asleep for most of the meal so [...]

Naomi is a pretty big fan of her room. Sometimes if she is freaking out I’ll set her on her change table and she’ll calm right down.

John is beyond proud of his little girl. When Naomi was about 2 days old he came into the kitchen where Naomi, Mom and I were chatting: I’m going to need our baby for a little bit. From there he proceeded to wrap her up in several fuzzy blankets, march out the front door like a Man [...]

Naomi’s first dog walk in her second week of life. She was walking the dogs in the womb, so we figured she may as well get started outside the womb right away. Age: 11 days

To say that this week has been a whirlwind would be the understatement of my life. Since words basically escape me at the moment I’m going to share some photos of Naomi’s first week. And then maybe I’ll go and shower. Maybe. Several hours after Naomi was born with mom (holy smokes… “mom”… that’s me…): [...]
