Babies are full time jobs.

Actually, they are two full time jobs because they go all night too. Did anyone else know this?

We got home to PP on Christmas Eve, managed to get settled in and have the most holiday-free holidays imaginable (ramen noodles for XMas eve dinner, chips and queso for Christmas dinner). The past few weeks have been spent basically getting to know each other. Misha is totally cute and awesome, and also a ton of work. Her sleep schedule has been pretty decent, but lately she's been on a fun routine where she refuses to nap and spends the day snowballing into a screaming mess. It's exciting. We're working on it.

Other highlights of the month are that Gavin accepted Infectious Disease Fellowship at WRNNMC in Bethesda, so we're going home! We still hope he can tack on the Critical Care component at the end, but until then we're pretty excited to head back to DC in the fall. I am going back to work at the Embassy at the beginning of February, which seems terrifying at this point. Luckily I'm only part time, so the anxiety should take up 5 hours/day. Daisy still doesn't contribute anything but cute and hair.

I don't actually have the time, energy, or mental capacity for more words than this. So here are recent pictures of the baby! Apologies in perpetuity to those of you on FB or Instagram that have seen a few of these... Also to anyone that hates pictures of babies, you're screwed. We truly have nothing else going on.

Girls be napping.
Someone has to watch the baby. 
Ha. 
Her cover shot for Cutest Ever! magazine. 

The only Christmas picture we managed to get. Pathetic.  
10 minutes after this we realized the baby's feet had turned blue.  
Going places! 


We had a visit from Aunt Suz! 

Faux hawk. She's so current. 
A walk in the park.
Dad on the move! 
Speaking of Honey Boo Boo...
Babies= stuff.
First airplane ride! She was perfect. I was a mess.
Christmas Eve dinner. 
Holiday cheer! 
Frenemies.
Yep. Note thrashing of feet in unison with screams. It's quite a production.

Oh hai guys!
