Growing fast already!

Timo is 2 weeks old today! And topping the scales at 7 lb 4 oz, a whopping 7 oz over his birth weight. Must be all the good eating & sleeping he is doing, plus all the loving care from Jaja and big sister Gemma.

Below: receiving love from his big sister, in the form of shared toys. Gemma loves to check in on Timo when he is sleeping in the bassinet or crib. "Where Timo go?" she asks throughout the day. "Oh! I hear baby brother in there!" She has already gotten in the habit of piling toys on top of him, like books or blankets or her baby doll. Today she gently placed the ribbon from a blue balloon in his hand, wanting to share with him. Of course, being a big sister isn't always filled with such tender moments...but she is learning to adjust.

And for comparison, here is Gemma at 9 days old in the same blue socks. 

Oh wait - who is that? Yes, that's Gemma!
