in the beginning... month one.


amelia harper caref
january 14, 2o1o   7lbs 11oz   20 in

millie was born a cubs fan. and a bears fan. and a bulls fan. and a blackhawks fan. the carefs are chicago sports fans by necessity! i've explained to her that where she goes to college will depend on how deep the cubs can go in the post-season. we've got eighteen years before harvard or yale will be looking for her tuition check... we need a world series!


most of our time in the hospital was spent waiting for millie to come out and join us! those first hours and days were a complete blur. this was taken right before they sent us on our way. jason and i were way too happy to be tired... yet.



a new baby in the house has been an adjustment for everyone. jake and bako were a little confused about what we were bringing home from the hospital. saying that they were obsessed would be an understatement.... they would not leave millie alone. jason thought that bako was simply trying to show her how much he loved her, but i'm more inclined to think that he was plotting her demise. they love her now... slobbering all over her face and snuggling up next to her crib.

 
 millie doesn't just smile for everyone. i like to think that she's saving them up for the people who she really loves (since i'm the recipient of lots of them!). she spends a lot of time with a furrowed brow and a little scowl on her face - clearly occupied by very important thoughts... a wet diaper, food, the ceiling fan perhaps? i love this little pensive face.
