A quick post, Ann and I still owe posts about my family’s visit, Christmas, and more.
Athena looks surprisingly identical to me when I was an infant:
A week or so out the resemblance isn’t as striking, but you can definitely tell we’re related:
She’s turned out to be just as alert and interactive as I was when I was an infant, according to my parents. Whenever we see another baby, even if they’re a bit older, I’m so surprised as how much time they spend sleeping or staring off into space. I have to remember that the baby I’m used to is unusually attentive.
Athena is starting to make cute little baby noises in addition to her normal cries and grunts, so I’m (completely unrealistically) expecting real words soon. We’ll keep you posted.
