atti's week 3

today marks atti's 3 weeks of life.

jeremy and i celebrated our 1 year anniversary yesterday. woohoo!
unfortunately, i became pretty ill on saturday... so we kept our celebration simple... pho' and brownies. hopefully we'll be able to celebrate a bit more... when i'm feeling better and a bit more comfortable leaving atti at home.

atti and halmoni... enjoying some freshly squeezed milk. i'm trying to slowly get him ready for when i'll have to go back to work.

thankfully, he took it without hesitation.

that's our little chub scout!

atticus took his first bath this week. someday he'll kill us for posting these pics in public.

he seemed to really enjoy being in the water... so much so that he gave mom and dad a little shower of his own.

atticus' throne

i bought this chair for $15 from some random center at Yale several months ago.
i loved it at first sight... but wasn't sure how it would fit into our decor.

with atticus here, it all makes sense now. doesn't he look quite regal?

we plan to take a pic of him sitting in his throne each week so that we can see how he fills it in over the months.. years.

the grandparents have arrived

halmuni and harabujee came into town this week.

atticus enjoyed watching Wheel of Fortune with grandpa and has benefited from morning stretching exercises with grandma.

week1

it's hard to believe that little atticus is already one week old. in a matter of days, hours... our lives have completely changed.

here are some images from this past week:
i turned 30 on saturday. jer surprised me with an evening spent with close friends and a sushi cake.



uncle ethan and auntie katie
















adam stopped by to say goodbye before leaving for cali. adam was jer's roommate before i moved in. new haven won't be the same without adam. northern michigan-ites are hard to come by in the northeast. if you look carefully, jer's holding a michigan football... and totally regretting wearing the illinois shirt for the pic.




i'm not sure why we always use jeremy's leg as a backdrop for our pics of atticus. we'll try to mix it up in the future.
