Websites, fatigue, and work

With Lily now just over two weeks old, we’ve all begun to settle into a good routine. She’s still on a reasonably good three-hour schedule, but now that I’m back at work Stephanie is shouldering the bulk of the late-night feedings and changings. It’s tough, but manageable – I’ve come home to smiles so far this week! Lily also just had her two-week checkup and made it through with flying colors. We wacky first-time parents came to the pediatrician armed with a big list of questions and concerns – all of which were patiently and carefully considered before receiving the old “it’s normal, don’t worry”. She could stand to gain a bit more weight, but both she and mom are working hard together – we’ll see if we need to start supplementing in the coming days.

A little tech news: Lily now has her own email address (her first name in all lowercase @teamahearn.com), and we’ve already put it to use by moving leftover items from our baby registries to her very own Amazon wishlist! Nerds, I know. More on this in a few months when Christmas rolls around. But feel free to send her an email – it goes right to Stephanie for now, who will save everything for posterity [and hilarity]. I don’t know – maybe we’ll wait and break them out when she starts dating.

And finally some website news: first, I’m still working on getting a batch of baby photos up on the site. I haven’t forgotten, but .. you know .. not much free time these days. Second, if you’re a faithful RSS subscriber, I’ve added a new feed for our books, music, and movies (see the sidebar to the right). The updates there used to be exciting and unique, but now are increasingly children-oriented. Anyways, the feed is there if you’re interested.
