Things are slowly starting to get back to normal since we’ve come back from our trip. There are lots of great pictures from our trip.
Shortly after we got back, we took a family trip to the zoo with my brother’s family. Click on the photo to see the entire set.
Annaleigh did very well on her first plane ride. She was quiet and happy until the last 10 minutes or so. She was having a problem popping her ears on our descent, so she was pretty fussy. Once we landed, she was just fine. A lot of people complimented us on how well-behaved our daughter was. It was a huge relief to Darla and I. Both of us had been stressing out about this for the last couple weeks.
Yes, we put her in the chair. No, we didn’t buy it. Maybe when she’s older and can sit up on her own without falling over.
Anyway, there are lots of new photos in the Flickr gallery.
If you think those are cute, you should check out the videos of me on the right.
I had new pictures taken. Mommy and Daddy keep saying that I look really cute.
It’s hard to believe that one month has gone by already. It seems like just yesterday I was being born.
Let me show you how I celebrated my one-month birthday.
