Hang in there, Bruce!

A note: in protest of the news stated below, Loki is taking a break from blogging. It's like a hunger strike, except he likes food way too much.

The big news of 2016 is that Hadley is going to be a big sister: to a baby girl due July 11th (my dad's birthday!)

Week 12

Week 13

Baby Girl #2, aka Sprout, is growing fast. I'm feeling fine, and Bruce has come to terms with being the lone human man of the house. Loki, however, is NOT THRILLED: not happy about Sprout, not about being outnumbered, and most not about how Hadley is obsessed with him.

Upon learning about her new role as "Big Sister", Hadley had a slight meltdown, and grabbed a wine glass presumably to drown her sorrows in milk....

Christmas and New Year's went by quickly and without incident. We had so many lovely visitors, Hadley had a great time. The only drawback is that the entire house was stricken with some mysterious cold/bronchitis. We have survived, relatively unscathed.

"Daddy: are you under there??"

"Haha! I found you!"

We couldn't be more excited to welcome Sprout to the family, and we are so grateful for everyone's congratulations, warm wishes, and excitement! 2016 is shaping up to be our best, and most hectic, year yet!

Squishing her sister's face...
probably not for the last time
