Day 10: Do I hear music?
Today I discovered that you like music, I think.
You were on my chest and I was trying to get you to sleep after a meal so I hummed "Row, row, row your boat." Suddenly you smiled! I tried a couple of other melodies (Old MacDonald) and you smiled again! I think you like the changes in pitch.
Your eyes are starting to look more hazel and you still like looking up at the lights. I think you can see our faces now. You definitely respond to faces within 8-12 inches of your eyes. You may even be able to see my expressions since I think you smiled back at me once.

Day 9: Meeting Grandma Banks
Today you met your Grandma Banks for the first time.
We picked her up at the airport at around 4:45 pm. She was so impressed that you came to the airport. But she thought you were to young to travel anywhere because it was hard for you to hold your neck up in your car seat. Mommy sat in the back with you to keep padding around your head just in case. You're actually a very peaceful traveler...so far.

Day 8 : KISS, ALIVE!!!
Friday May 4, 2007
Today you were visited by a slew of family friends including Stu Hankinson, Leigh Frame, Carla Haughton, and Lisa Strause.
They all think you look like your daddy. What do you think?
You were so good natured during the whole thing...a real trooper.
That night, Mommy and I took you for your first stroll in public. It was about 7 pm and Mommy was going a little stir crazy from cabin fever. She had spent the last 7 days in a tiny hospital room without a view.
We got to SouthPark Mall about 8:30 pm...not much time since most of the stores closed at 9. But it was quiet and not very busy.
We down the main hall and then I remembered Paul Stanely, the lead singer of KISS, was having an art exhibition there that night. Since we were close we went over. When we got there several police officers were at the entrance to the gallery and a few people inside.
We recognized Paul immediately from his jet-black long hair and rocker outfit (leopard skin shirt.) A couple of minutes later he left escorted by more police and his handlers. He was probably off to some swanky bar or restaurant.
He didn't notice you all bundled up in your stroller. It's probably just as well.

Day 7: Your 1st week already!
You will be one week old at 8:31 pm tonight and what a week it has been!
Last night was your first night at home. You slept most of the afternoon, only waking up to gaze serenely at the recessed lights in the kitchen ceiling. We all wonder what is so fascinating! It's too early to tell what color your eyes will be but if I had to guess I would say hazel.
You're also very strong! When you hold one of my fingers, I can't believe how strong your grip is. And when we change your diapers, your legs are so strong it's almost hard to move them out of the way.
