Last Thursday we were all feeling quite proud and satisfied. At your second visit to Dr. DeDiego he pronounced you "perfect". You weighed 8 lbs. 8 oz. - one pound over your birh weight, but over one pound since your first visit the week before - you had grown one inch, and all your reflexes and body parts seemed to be in perfect condition. You behaved perfec
tly as well, sleeping peacefully as we stopped at the post office, the bank and the ISCAR offices on the way home.I guess you wanted to make sure that we didn't expect constant perfection. Friday you fussed and screamed all day, eating fitfully on no definable schedule. Your Mom said it was as if someone had come in during the night and changed babies on us. By mid-day Saturday we were on our way to having our "practically perfect" baby back.
Sunday we had 12 visitors - your great grandmother, Tia Belén, Tia China, Tio Luis, Tio Tito, Tia Baby, and Maru, Eric, Karina, Valeria, Guillermo, Luis Mena. They swept in and swept out to baseball games, malls and other obligations. Nina and Belén stayed and visited with us at the house most of the time until the whole group took off again for Orlando on Monday.
