Settling In

Your furniture finally arrived!! We all got busy putting together the crib, changing table and swing and setting up your room. Your crib arrived just in time. You were outgrowing the little bassinet. Your feet reached to the bottom and the last few nights the lack of room seemed to make you uncomfortable. Now you look tiny again. Just a small babe in a large crib. You only sleep well at night if you are securely swaddled in all that new space.

Nina's birthday celebration on Thursday night was another highlight of this week. As usual, you were the center of attention and everyone wanted to hold you.

Tia China returned from London on Saturday and brought you a new friend - a musical Tooth Fairy. She's there in the corner of your portable crib - which served so well as changing table and bassinet while we were in Savanna. It has now been retired to Nina's house so you have a comfortable space when you visit there.

Another week of changes, but we did make progress getting you settled in here in Maracaibo.
