I guess it’s about time for Daddy to check in again!

For me, the big news right now is that Sami has a really nice social smile! Kind of makes the fatigue all worthwhile. In fact, sometimes it looks like she is so delighted to see either me or Leslie that she tries to laugh. It doesn’t seem like she has enough control of her vocal chords yet to actually laugh, but the effort on her part is *reallY* appreciated.

All in all, Sami continues to be a delightful baby. About 90% of the time she acts very happy and content, and about half of the rest of the time, she is fussing because she is either hungry or needs a new diaper — both of which are easy to fix. More interesting is that last 5% of the time, when she seems to be fussy because she is *very* tired, but *determined* not to go to sleep. It seems like she really likes to hang out with us, and doesn’t want to miss anything by falling asleep. From our fatigued perspective, this seems down right demented! A cute aspect of this is that often just before she goes to sleep she will fuss some, let out a couple of really loud cries, like she is very agitated and distressed, and then …. konk — solidly out.

I am back at work now, and this has been a busy week, as folk who missed me the past month want to get their piece of me! So, I am feeling lots of time-pressure right now — which with no sleep is a *wonderful* combination. After tomorrow, it looks like things will settle down some, so perhaps I can settle into a more workable long-term work routine! Let’s hope!
