In all honesty I haven't really had time to even log into the computer to check my email or read other blogs, so I don't feel too guilty for not posting. Zarina is doing great. She is a good, happy baby overall. There are occasional times when she is fussy or wants to be held a little more, but it's easy to handle. She's not sleeping through the night yet. I feed her around 10 or 11 pm, then I have to get up at 2 or 3 am to feed her again. When she wants to eat at 6 or 7 am I really should be getting up for the day, but because I haven't been taking daytime naps I usually try to get her to go back to sleep so I can snooze a bit longer. She's not a baby that spits up a lot, but when she does she makes it count. Early this evening she decided to purge the contents of her feeding. She had been eating for 10 minutes, so it was alot of baby spit up, it ended up all over my lap, on my arm and on her arm and shoulder. Part of it just cascaded from her mouth, then as I sat her up on my lap she was able to project the spit up, it was a lovely sight.
We love our baby. We are excited to have some of our family come to town for her blessing this weekend.
Brien is smitten with his little girl, he's a great dad and he does so much for her. Brien tells me that he doesn't want to be own of those dad's who is accused of not helping with the kids. Zarina likes to sleep on Brien's chest, and Jack likes to sleep next to them. Enjoy the pictures.
The blanket that Jessica, Andrea, and Emily made for Zarina. This picture was taken while I was still pregnant, that's why my face/nose looks funny.

This was a few weeks ago, Zarina looks much bigger now when she sits on her daddy.
She was hungry and Brien got his nose a little to close. I discovered for myself that it tickles to have a baby suckle your nose.
While in Las Vegas for Thanksgiving Zarina was able to visit her cousins.
