Eight weeks!





Owen turned eight weeks old yesterday and it was our dry run for me going back to work on Monday so we followed the morning schedule like we will next week. My parents got here at 7 and I headed out to work until 12:30. On Monday and Tuesday they will actually be here from 7-5 and 7-6:30 but the rest of the week should be 7-4 except Thursday when we all meet at the dr.'s office for his 2 month appt. at 4 pm~

Here is what's new at eight weeks:

Owen loves to look at the pages of books and smiles and coos during reading.

He recognizes mom and dad and gives us big smiles!

He is sleeping a lot when grandma and grandpa are here but taking the pumped milk bottles just fine!

According to my home scale weighing methods, he is between 12 and 13 pounds, but we'll find out for sure Thursday at the doctor!

Blog Reader Survey!

In an effort to figure out how people are getting Owen info/pix, I am trying to find out who reads this blog regularly and uses it as their main way to keep up with our family. I am finding "photo management" to be much more difficult than getting enough sleep as a new mommy! Currently I am using facebook and this blog to share pix. I am building a Shutterfly share site as well, mainly for several people who don't use facebook or read the blog as much. If you read this, could you please leave a comment to this post or send me an email to let me know: 1. How do you like to keep up with us- Junebug blog, Casaluna blog, facebook, email, or a combination? 2. Would you want to be invited to a Shutterfly sharesite and there you can opt to receive emails when we add new pix? I don't want to bombard people with photos but at the same time love the idea that they are there for people to access when they have time or inclination. Thanks for your help with this!

Babymoon

We took a "babymoon" overnight trip this Valentine's weekend down to Carlsbad. We stayed right across from the beach and had time to relax, walk on the beach, eat yummy food, shop, see my cousin C. and her fiance M., and even go to the beautiful new Encinitas library! It was a great pre-parenting getaway! Now that I'm home, I'm starting to do the heavy-duty research on what we need and don't need, and I'm realizing I don't know much! For instance-how many bottles do we need? What's the difference between travel systems, infant car seats, bases and convertible car seats? Who knew that I didn't know? Not me! Wish us luck!!
